Ryan, did Firestone indicate they would take care of your air bag issue?

I haven't heard back from them since I sent them my shipping address, they didn't seem to have a concern about replacing it though. They asked for pictures, and my contact information, that was about it. I gave up my info on Tuesday, hopefully I hear back soon.
Great!!
Did you tell them that timing is key? Don't wanna screw up your vacation...

I can still run without my air bags, just not as smooth and stable. The truck sways a little and doesn't handle as well. I would definitely like to have the bags under the rear, with 100 psi in them!
I'd want them on and working, all the way to Colorado and back... shouldn't hurt to call them and clue them in about your upcoming vacation...
But, it's ok to just say, "Mind your own bidness!!" to me... or, ignore me completely...
Due to my work, I've developed a much younger demographic group of friends. While I agree with your sentiment on the aggregate, there are some exceptions, imo.
They no longer make music together, but Audioslave made some pretty good music from 2001 to 2007, using just drums, guitar, bass and unaltered vocals.
Because of my age, and the fact I don't listen to most modern music, I'm a latecomer to them, but am impressed with their art. Plus, their live music sounds just like their album music, since they actually perform without autotune and other enhancements.
Back on the cruiser front; any plans for today?

There is a one week delay in the cruiser salvage operation, I need to work on a rear brake on my truck today. It is a major operation on a dually to get to the parking brake components. The other mud member that I am going in with on those had timing issues also, no tow rig.

As long as I get there to fish some unkown trout streams, I think I will be happy!

After getting into the rear hub, all the way to the parking brake components it is time for coffee. Nothing wrong in the parking brake. Looks like the brake caliper is locked up. I tried to press it back with a clamp to no avail, looks like a trip to napa to replace it under warranty. Hopefully.
Why replace something that failed in under 2 years with the same thing? IDFK.....maybe it was a fluke, maybe it just had too much salt spray.......

Which part?
At least it's under warranty. Did it lock up on you while driving?

I lucked out with the warranty, it has expired, but I spend enough at Napa that they didn't really care. It didn't lock up solid, but after driving in city traffic it would smoke the rear passenger side, ran it a tad tight. It looks like one of the pistons was not releasing completely, leaving some pressure on the pad.

I just recently changed my location setting, it used to say "dazed and confused"
I am out in Western Maryland, near Hagerstown.

Sometimes you just need to tighten your laces, fix bayonets, and assault the objective.
