Snails - Response on Threads Part 6

Good morning OBG, Haze, Bear, and Atty

Looks like we all at least survived

Hummm, wait ... haven't seen Gracie yet

Well, it's still morning, so a good one to each of you.

I went to bed extra early last night and woke up at 4 am, and evidently wasn't enough sleep so went back to sleep until 10:45.

Yesterday was a wonderful day, but it did me in!

Had to leave the car because 3 lugs needed to get torched off. Lug nuts
seized and would not come off.

They must not have much of an impact mine will snap them right off if not careful,they could have been cross threaded by someone not starting them by hand first.

This is the second time it's happened. They showed me a couple lugnuts that
did come off. Corroded due to salt.

A couple years ago, I had all the metal (aluminum) valves replaced. One broke
at home when I went to add air. Then a second one broke while going through
a car wash. The car came off the conveyor due to a flat. It stopped all business
for over an hour. Many people stuck IN mid-wash! Traffic WAY backed up!!!

Aluminum + salt = problems. But that was all stock parts. I shall live and learn
to replace with other materials.

(Still no call... I shall call THEM.)

And actually, I trust this shop, implicitly. Been going there for almost 30 years
now. The only time I go to The Dealer is for warranty work. The shop does
everything else. I do wish warranty work could be done any place.

"Within the hour".

The same thing happened with LUGNUTS as did with brake parts this past April:

...there are so many different sub-models of Chargers that they keep sending the
wrong parts. One would THINK that something like lugnuts or brake pads would be
the same across models, jhca. But, one would be wrong.

Furniture shoved over.One end table moved to bedroom. Tree is set up. Back is killing me. Still have to decorate tree but don't think that will happen today.
