[@anthonyvisnesky6656]

Loved your story about your grandfather. My Dad( would have been 104) this year. He was the same kind of guy. Taught me everything I know that is worth a damn. I am a graduate EE. The best advice I ever got was his admonition “ you are an educated man; but never disrespect a man who works with his hands.!”He was a WW2 vet ( 2 bronze stars) 291st Combat Engineers. His group built the longest tactical bridge ever built under fire. Over a mike long across the Rhine River.

[@williamconner9407]

I think that bridge was the replacement for the Remagen bridge after it collapsed into the Rhine. If it is the one i'm thinking of, my dad crossed your granddad's bridge while commanding an armored platoon in the 20th armored division. Go figure!

[@anthonyvisnesky6656]

It was in fact that bridge!

[@anthonyvisnesky6656]

It was a pontoon based tactical bridge designed to support heavy armor and troop transport. My Dad’s MOS was” bridge carpenter” he was a T-5. It was a specialist rank that no longer exists. We must thank them all for their selfless service!

[@williamconner9407]

And here we are, both Mortske fans :) As my dad always said, "Small world but I wouldn't want to paint it."

[@anthonyvisnesky6656]

If anyone is interested in the “ full story” of this remarkable engineering feat. Building a bridge to support the transport of “ heavy armor” in days ,not months, under heavy enemy fire. I highly recommend the book”First Across the Rhine”. It recounts the amazing abilities of our “citizen soldiers” and what their collective excellence was able to accomplish in the fight to preserve our freedom. It truly was “ the greatest generation.”

[@joshreumann2349]

Mojo needs his own channel. Just him sharing stories and his knowledge of the past as he works around the shop. Sweet old man is a treasure. Cherish the time you have with him.

I lost a bead in the sand dunes once on a truck. We scooped out a lot of sand before we re seated the bead. I had been dealing with a vibration that couldn’t be determined by the tire shop. The truck never drove better! We loved it so much we put 5 oz of sand in each tire. It drove perfectly afterwards.

[@TylerDuysen]

paddle tires are impossible to balance because of how the tires are made remember there made for sand and mud thats it its not an onroad tire so balance doesnt matter

[@junkyardsearcher6407]

@@TylerDuysen it wasn’t paddle tires, it was the regular all terrain tires, aired down to 6. I wasn’t going to use the truck, but the club was .running sand Olympics and I just had to get involved… I rolled the tire off the bead on an obstacle course

Great recollections of your Grandfather; I have the same; mine was a." look-it-up." Swamp Yankee. He would not sell you anything. It was a loan because he might need it to take it back someday.

Mortske check the caps on the axle joints, some have the zirk in the caps instead of the cross. Also an old farmer trick for leaking wheel seals is to replace the seal and pack the bearings with grease and run the diff an inch low on oil. I’ve ran into that many times working in a shop. Usually only on the farm truck we did bakes on. If you use 1/2” plastic air brake tubing it’s a bit more flexible, or pex tubing works also. Hook the vacuum ball back up and the heat should work again.
