So long, Arthur
We hope you will stop in and visit now and then. I always enjoyed reading your posts. I could tell Arthur knew what he was talking about. We will miss that! Jim

I'm glad to hear that the boys are involved with it. My son and I spent lots of time clearing brush and cutting firewood from the time he was about six until he went off to college. The second Christmas he was home from college we had a terrible ice storm that took down lots of heavy branches around the house. We spent several days with a chainsaw trying to clean up the mess. He said he thought he was finished with that part of his life. Now that he's almost 30 he's kind of ready to help me with such things when he visits. Maybe the city life wasn't what he thought it would be.

I just read in another thread in Diesel Discussion that Arther is missed. I did some searching to find out what happened. Iam sad to see an experienced person leave for any reason, this is sort of like an extended family. I have only been here 2 yrs and 8 mo, so still a little green around the ears. wish I could have found this forum back in 1999 when it started.
Arther really helped me understand "How to determine friction Preload" in the differentials. Thank You so much for that bit of information. I wish you the best is what ever you do, and I hope our paths cross some time in the future. take care Charlie

I just skimmed down and am surprised to see I have not posted on this thread.
Arthur was and is indeed a classy individual with vast knowledge and an equally generous spirit who always had exactly the right answer and never anything but total courtesy and patience with those less experienced. He is missed, I am sure by one and all.

I'm going to follow Arthur Daltons lead and call 10 years enough. I started posting 10 years ago this month and my MB is no longer my daily driver.
I enjoyed it and my best to everyone. Larry
