diggininc Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Hi everyone! I am a new member here, and a rookie to the heavy trucks mechanic field,but no stranger to twisting wrenches. I spent a little under a year in the shop with my mentor, and was given a promotion and sent to our Texas yard. I only have 4 trucks in my fleet, and haven't had a problem keeping them running yet. I have two chu 613's and two freight shakers. The owner of the company I work for just decided to buy Macks from here on out, so I am pretty happy about that. I am in the middle of changing a clutch by myself for the first time. I gotta say I haven't had any problems so far, but its not over yet. OK well I think I have said enough for know. If anyone has any tips or suggestions please feel free to let me know. Like I said, I have less than a year of experience at this so I could use any help I can get. Thanks and I am glad to be a member. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/18069-hello-from-a-noobie/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bollweevil Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Welcome to BMT! Welcome, Keep plugging along, ask questions, always check your work, you don't have to know everything to be a good mechanic, you just have to know how to find out.

Thanks and I am glad to be a member.Welcome aboard, I'm pretty new myself but one thing I found out right away is that there are a lot of experienced guys out here and if you ask chances are pretty good you'll get an answer that will help. As for me I'm not from the mechanic side of the house so I won't be much good to you. Bob Quote Sometimes you're the windshield and sometimes you're the BUG!!!
