Congratulations !  Don't forget to buy plenty of
those Hudson Tool Checks before he gets to turning wrenches and borrowing
tools.

Subject: [HSS] Rebuild of the firetruck
rear end.


Thanks to Alcar Bearing of North Carolina, I have my rear
end on my
firetruck completed and it is not that hard to do either. 
A very
simple but well built Timkin rear end.  Napa had one bearing
from San
Diego and Race in Denver.  At that rate it would Christmas
in 2006
before I had all the bearing for a complete job.  George of
Olcar
matched up all the bearing numbers in two hours and I received them
in
five working days.  With holidays and such I should be back on the

road by Jan.  Too many things happing to get down and dirty right
now.
That because I am a first time grandfather and the little kritter is

taking most of our time. Spare time of course.  With his grip, he

should do fine as a Hudson machanic.  Takes after his grandpa of

course.
