Finally site is clearing up. Have to say it hasn't been fun. I have spent the last couple weeks for the most part on my back looking at the ceiling. Still can't lift or bend over for a few more days. I hope to go back to work later this week. We will see.

Site is clearing up every day. Drove for the first time in 3 weeks yesterday. Lights at night still have a glare big time. That should clear up in time.

Went to the doc this afternoon and I have been released to go back to work. I go back on Monday. Everything has cleared up for the most part. I go back in three weeks and get setup for glasses. Until then I can use cheaters that do help. One thing I didn't know is there was a stich in my eye. She removed that today as well.
Going to be crazy when I get back to work on Monday. Talked to a coworker the other day and they are backed up BIG TIME!!!!!

Yea!! I'm really looking forward to going back Friday afternoon I was able to get my passwords squared away. Went through 600 emails. Some I still need to get with someone on.
Took the Colorado in Friday Morning to get a few things fixed. Probly won't see it until mid week. I spent Saturday on the HD changing oil and checking things out. This morning I spent cleaning the inside out. Need to put tires on it as well. Found the front shocks, upper bushings, bottom side are shot. Been hearing some rattling up there for some time. Brake pads are a little loose but not bad. I'll start with the shock bushings and go from there.

This work thing is getting old. Â Been busy as he!!. We have tickets out the wazoo . Close 5 get 6. Â
Went to Big O to get tires for the HD. This crap is out of control. Looked at 5 different brands of tires before we found some in a warehouse. Everything is out of stock with no ETA on when they will get them. I ended up getting Hankook's. Not real sure about them, but the truck will have new shoes and hopefully drive better. Have one separating and one that was plugged not holding air.

Finally this week week is DONE!!! What a crazy busy week.
Colorado still in the shop. Can't seem to find a noise it has between 57 and 62 mph. I thought it may have been wind related, but they ruled that out with it on a lift and hearing the noise. HD getting tires tomorrow.

I hate trying to find noises, they're never what they seem to be can drive ya nuts sometimes. Â
BTW, how's the eye coming along.
Eye is getting better. Go next Wednesday for glasses.
Got a call today on the Colorado. The pinion is loose. So they are sending the drive shaft to be checked. I couldn't get a straight answer if a new rear end is going in or fixing it. If the drive shaft was out of balance or bent, I would think the truck would have had one he!! Of a vibration at all speeds not a noise.

Great news, glad to hear it's finally fixed.
If the pinion came loose you'd get a whine and a good clunk when you go back and forth from reverse and forward, unless the bearing is so bad that it's flopping around in the housing, but if it was that bad I would think it would have blown up by now, lol.. Drive shaft out of balance or bad u-joints will vibrate, won't be a noise unless it's coming apart or something is dangling and hitting it while going down the road

I wasn't getting any of them noises. just a noise between 57 and 63. I did get like the bed moving clunking around when going over speed bumps and going in or out of the driveway.
