Not really, but it saved me $238 plus Nebraska sales tax.
Wheelin' Saturday, Bill in his K5, and me and Mike Caffey in my Trooper with my new LTBs, which I only had on for three hours, went tooling around.
So, I decided to try the mud ability out on the new meats.
Mike said "go for it." So I did.
As we left, some dash lights started coming on.
By the time we hit Roca, my speedo stopped working.
By the time I hit 48th and Highway 2, it was ready to die.
My alternator was toast.
Took the battery cable off today after starting it, and it died immediately.
Mike took off the alternator and cleaned it out.
He took it to Advanced Auto to test it, but they told him that they can only test it on the vehicle, which I found funny.
Well, he cleaned the heck out of it, stuck it back in just to see, and POW!
It worked!!
So, I owe Mike big time!!
