    Get the van fixed Sam....???


    Bought new steel rims Saturday and ordered the tires from my garage. Dropped off the rims and they should be ready to p/u at 10:30ish.
    Then taking them to the garage my Ex uses. She is paying them to go out and take the ruined wheels off and put new ones on.

    I am still under the "no lifting over 10 pounds" restriction, I can't do the work myself. Assuming there was no suspension damage, the van should be driveable this afternoon. Pass side RV mirror is going to have to wait until the weekend to be replaced, I just don't have time with work & work travel to do it before Saturday.

    Between Dr appointments and my work schedule and the wife's work schedule, it may be a couple days before we can test drive it. If she has to leave town, she will have to catch a ride with friends or her Mom....

    **** a bunch of cats in the road. I will not tear up my vehicles to miss them. Wife did once and cost me some suspension damage in my "Brand" new 96 Impala SS........I was Pissed beyond description. Told her if it happened again she was riding the Metro.
    My van just left on my sons roll back. Left front wheel bearing failure.

    Had to have new wheel bearing put on the silver caddy in November. For some reason they are only lasting 100K and my garage can't figure it out.

    I think she learned her lesson about animals in the road. She is going to be very broke the next 10 weeks because I am making her give me 1/2 her paycheck until she pays me off for the damage......
