    You got a good deal. That engine should last a long time. You basically got an in frame and an over head at the same time. You were probably due for most of that anyway. Just on the road wasn't in your plan I'm thinking. You will make it back in work really soome. You work pretty hard and have a good dispatcher that keeps you busy.

      @edbutton9445 3 роки тому +1

      Dan, congratulations on a successful rebuild at an excellent price. Didn't hear you mention a new engine rotational damper (perhaps included in the kit), or dynamic balancer. Two items
      important to long engine life. If not replaced, consider replacing when you replace the radiator. You also might consider a turbo blanket and outlet pipe wrap for the new turbo. Decreased turbo lag and keeps engine compartment temps down. Glad to see Cat filters used and may be important if warranty is involved. Another vital recommendation is oil sampling at least every10,000 miles, and every change. Also trans and rear ends. Can alert you to warning these components are giving and $35 per sample is cheap insurance. Head gaskets usually gives several miles warning, and an oil analysis would show what a visual can't. With a new engine you now have a great opportunity to really improve your fuel milage with lower speeds, lower rpm's, and reduced turbo boost numbers and progressive shifting. Which results in less fuel purchases and more money in your bank account. Will make a big
      dollar difference at the end of the year. Best of success trucking in 2021!

    I’m so glad to hear your truck is fixed and driving well. My parents always said you get what you paid for! The decision to go with a experienced CAT dealer with a talented mechanic, was so wise.
    Peace of mind is a great thing. Now you have warranties covering your truck, possible better gas mileage with a turbo, will provide many safe miles for you and your truck.
    God speed, glad you are back, thank you Foley and Dorsey trailers.

I don't know what the cost for an 18 speed box would be in comparison to the 13 speed but I recon that may be a good way for you to look into. Makes life a lot easier on your motor. BTW mate, you may not have seen or follow Trucking with Schmidt but he paid you one of the best compliments from another owner driver. Maybe if you get time you may want to check his channel out. Lovely guy and really sweet family and just like you, very family friendly. Anyway mate, best wishes from Australia Dan.
