Default Another trip to Adlemans and some more goodies!

I made another trip Adlemans Truck Parts in Canton, OH yesterday, I was after a circuit breaker for my heater install. I also wanted to get a turn signal switch as the light socket in mine is burned up. And I wanted another three lever switch since the lock lever on mine no longer springs back like it should.

I managed to pick up the turn signal switch and two, three lever switches that work really well (at least the levers work good anyway). I got 3 circuit breakers from various trucks that I needed. I really only needed one, but I like spare parts! I also picked up an air governor from one of the trucks while I was there. Mine is just fine but I'm going to use it on my monster shop compressor build I'm working on. It does the same thing as an air unloader that I would have to pay over $70 for. I also noticed one of the trucks had a brand new replacement horn on it so I grabbed it too. Again, mine is just fine, but I like spare parts.

After I got the parts I wanted, I decided to look atound at the 5 and 10 tons they have in the yard as well. I looked in the tool box of the very first 5 ton I came to and guess what I found...

Inside the box was a budd lug wrench set and a pretty much brand new set of road flares (reflectors) in the case. I don't really need the lug wrench, but I guess it will be good to keep in the tool box of the deuce so I don't need to carry the impact and budd socket with me everywhere I go. I was kind of happy to see the road flares though, I like to keep them with me just in case. Now I can put my other set back in the wifes truck.

I know it's nothing exciting to most of you guys, but I was more than pleased with my haul and for only 40 bucks I was even more happy.

Isn't it wonderful how such little things can please us so much when it comes to our MV's.

I'm mean. You know what I mean. If you know what I mean, you'll know what I mean! I'm mean! Meaner than... , I sure am mean. Yeah, mean. I'm meaner than that. You know what I mean. I'm so **** mean! I'm mean!
