Pac Brake

Back when we were getting ready to leave Coyote Creek State Park, one of the tires on the fifth wheel was down to about 11#! Since our Pac Brake came with an air compressor, we pumped the tire up and proceeded to put some air in the other tires. But before we were done, however, the pump stopped...it had apparently overheated, leaving us without the Pac Brake brakes. Fortunately, the problem resolved itself once everything cooled off.

The pull up the hill inside the main campground at Hyde Memorial State Park north of Santa Fe had overheated the transmission, also leaving us without the Pac Brakes...only this time, the problem didn't resolve itself after everything cooled off.

Today, Earl called Pac Brake and asked about recommended repair facilities in New Mexico. At first they recommended the Camping World in Albuquerque, but after talking with them, and finding out that they would want us to pay for repairs and seek reimbursement from Pac Brake, Earl called Pac Brake again about other New Mexico repair facilities. They gave us the names of two places: one in Farmington and the other in Alamogordo. Since we're closer to Farmington, Earl called Diesel Tune to make an appointment for the following week. They said no appointment was necessary...just come in when we got there.
