Thanks for the advice path1.
I will probably do the same thing as far as the items to carry in my "just in case" bag.
I did have a few quick questions. I know that one way to tell if the bearing is bad, on the drive shaft, is to grab the shaft itself and wiggle it to see if it has play. Is there any other way to tell if its going bad? Also, for the jack. I was thinking of purchasing the bottle type of jack. What weight support do you recommend for a jack? 8ton, 10ton? I'll probably only use it to change a flat tire and for basic maintenance with jack stands of course. Speaking of Jack stands, what weight support are recommended for those?
It gives me "peace-of-mind" knowing that most of you have had your rigs for several years and have experienced very few problems especially with the engines. All this is great info!!! Thanks!!!
