    Milwaukee 18V Batteries

    The batteries question, do you always have batteries on charge? Or do you only recharge before you need tool? I think if always on charge you shorten battery life. I found this out with another tool. Just my 2 cents

    Hub Problem after Ball Joints Replaced

    A few months back I had the OEM Ball Joints replaced @190K this weekend I needed my 4 wheel drive but it would never lock into 4 wheel. I went to the local shop for them to check truck. They think all that needed is to clean hubs and normal PM. They also claim the hubs " DO NOT NEED VACUUM"...
