Hello Deve, just wanted to insert a little thanks for the most excellent info and blog on tech info you have assembled for this R&R. I appreciate your time spent to help fellow stovebolters in their endeavor to keep this old iron on the road. Props to you , Steve

Props to Dave. He was amazing during the entire documenting process. There is very little that I personally know about that procedure, I just had the desire to document it and Dave was patient enough to walk me through it. It's very rare that a person comes along that is as patient and as knowledgeable as Dave. I probably called him 6-8 times or more during that process and since it was my first time ever doing it, I was apprehensive and very nervous and he made it possible. Dave is really THE brains behind most of what you see on this site. I am very thankful as everyone who loves these trucks is too! Thanks once again Dave!

Thank you Deve for your kind words!
I enjoy sharing my experience with others.
Even though I have been retired a little over two years now, I feel all the knowledge and experience I have learned should be shared with others.
Maybe the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, as my dad was a school teacher.
Thanks again, Dave
