The compressor on the air conditioning went out one afternoon; well okay, I can fix that later.......then the next morning I lost all power steering and the silly thing stopped moving all together. Hooked the 1066 to the disc and it just can't handle it.
Still okay, I can fix that 5488. Took me two hours to pull the hydraulic flow control valve out of her and I'm trying to repair it on the tailgate of the pickup out in the field with the wind and dirt blowing.
