[A/S] Re: Wheels - Bearings - Brakes - general topic - related thread

[estatewagons@xxxxxxx]

Ben - I read that too.  I tried to offer Tom a "general thinking" response 
- as he went to troubleshoot his situation - and at the same time - talk 
about the scenario in general - if others picked up on the thread.  

Also - since Tom did not mention specifically that the bearings and hubs 
were checked - that was my worry-wart side - just double checking.  It only 
makes sense they were - but with such a safety issue - I like to be double 
sure rather than "assume".

Every so often we see where someone steps in on a thread at mid-point and 
starts reading and they don't get the whole story - and since the threads 
often deal with safety issues as in this thread - that is why I tried to 
steer the thinking away from the "never" word.  If a newbie sees the word 
"never" - it concerns me - as I'd like them to remember that Murphy's Law 
is always out there lurking around just waiting for over-confidence and 
assumption to step in.

There are so many ways to learn from a great source like this newslist - 
the person with the specific questions that writes in for help or a 
shoulder to lean on while riding out a problem - and then the general 
public who read along and occasionally make a note/learn of something 
they'd not heard of before.

Best Wishes.  RL
