Scheduled for Surgery

Well it looks like the Mule's going under the knife. Diagnosis from Dr. D is possible countergear bearing failure in the old Saginaw tranny. Thwap thwap thwap in first or reverse. The Original Antiquated Mule deserves a little love so I'll try and get the axle seals done at the same time and end the whamminess for good. Stay tuned...

  1. You and Dr. D gonna be tag teem operators and perform the procedure yourself? If you were planning to book it elsewere I will mention the shitty garage down the street from me is only fidybux/per hour. The finest skillz westside alcoholix can provide.....

  3. Did I mention a reliable nissan truck for sale? Cheap? Are you sure your mule doesn't have a living will or anything. A "Do Not Resuscitate" if you will... Poor thing.

  4. Hey now! That's our beloved mascot yer talkin about. The Mule's got another 100,000 miles left in her I'm sure. I'd like to see that Nissan still kickin 34 years from now in 2044, 400,000 KM on the clock with little more than regular oil changes.
