Truck problems may delay our plans. The bearing holding the truck fan is failing. We had heard a sound that was off and drew attention but I just could not find what was wrong.
After a quick check by a mechanic here, he found that the bearing was bad. This could have been a big problem if it had failed while we were driving or worse hauling the 5th wheel. The belt would have thrown and torn up a lot of other things. Expensive! The bearing was metal to metal. We both have no idea how it held together. Well for less than $600 parts and labor, it was worth it. A dealership would have cost $1000 minimum. If something sounds off, get it checked. Not only will it save you a lot of money but save you from being towed or worse.
