Re: SANDLIN LUMBER / SEMA **Open House**
I put together a list of door prizes and the winners. I apologize up front if I mis-spelled anyone's name!
http://www.lateral-g.org/events/semaparty2007 It was great meeting a bunch of the SYC members. I really want to see that Yenko Vega project come together. Thanks again to Steve and Jason Sandlin. Thank you for allowing us to be a part of the event and contributing towards the charity fundraiser!

OK, there's gotta be a story here. [/ QUOTE ] A Dodge flatbed w/cattle trailer ran off the road & hit our big trailer a couple years ago while it was parked in front of our shop...well, as they were fixing the body, we told them to totally redo the brakes on all the axles, new everything...this was a big name trailer place over in Springfield, so we *assumed* they'd have a handle on things. But ever since then, we've done nothing but fight the brakes on this trailer...fast forward to last week. Trailer is loaded, but we have a brake grabbing...I pull the wheel/hub, back off that wheel, make sure everything seems hunky-dorry, and take our electric grease gun to every axle. Welp, he calls from Texas and he's lost a tire on the trailer, but the spare is good, so they keep rolling...get to Vegas, the brake is back to dragging. Steve's guys pull the wheels/drums, we have a cracked drum & all of the grease is gone out of the bearings...seems the trailer place installed the wrong axle seals so all the grease left on the trip to Vegas...also, a couple of the other trailer tires had started seperating. So, 6 new trailer tires, new shoes, bearings, seals, a brake drum, and a whole lotta labor from Steve's crew, and it was time for the return trip! Coulda been baaaaad....

 COOL! Typical over-the-top hospitality from the guy in LV!  Glad everything came together and everyone is home safe and sound.
