Re: Failed Transmission cooler Reply #100 – January 08, 2019, 09:46:38 am Wonder why Foretravel enters into it as it's a commercial rear end with only the Meritor brakes being different. Lots of shops don't know much about Meritor but here are the studs from Meritor's site: https://www.meritorpartsxpress.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/SearchDisplay?categoryId=63501&storeId=10154&catalogId=10051&langId=-1&sType=SimpleSearch&resultCatEntryType=2&showResultsPage=true&searchSource=Q&pageView=&beginIndex=0&pageSize=12&isRequestComingFromPrimarySearchBar=isRequestComingFromPrimarySearchBar&searchTermScope=102&searchTerm=studs#facet:&productBeginIndex:0&facetLimit:&orderBy:&pageView:list&minPrice:&maxPrice:&pageSize:&You shop may not be sure of the right part number as there are several available so perhaps going through Foretravel.Pierce Quote Selected
Re: Failed Transmission cooler Reply #101 – January 08, 2019, 11:31:48 am PierceI discussed this with the service writer. Asked what was so special about the studs on Budd wheels. He said that they had studs that would fit but wanted to make sure they had the OEM part. Can't complain about that.Roland Quote Selected 1 Likes

Re: Failed Transmission cooler Reply #103 – January 16, 2019, 06:07:31 pm OK got the coach back today. Drove to Ajo with the toad hooked up. Did not have any oil on the toad when I got to Ajo. Cost a bit over a coach buck, so more then the mobile guy charged but they also replaced three wheel lugs. I guess time will tell if it's finally fixed. All they did was replace the seal and three lug nuts ( I supplied the lug nuts via Foretravel).I did not pay the mobile mechanic as I did not hire him. Tres Hombres in Carlsbad NM was supposed to pay him, that's what they told me and the mobile mechanic. Last I heard Tres Hombres did not compensate the mobile mechanic. At least that's what he told me when he came after me for payment.Roland Quote Selected
