Yep you work in an aluminum melting operation. I have yet to see an operation as such that did not tax the eqipment. I have had to replace diffs, rollers, trannys, spindles ,axles, wiring harnesses, mast rails ect. The place i work on them at got new lift once a year and they were pretty much scrap when traded in on new equip. In other words brother i do feel ya. It is the beast it is.
