    1 Tire Worn on the inside-

    Yes they absolutely did check the front axle. It was ok.  I was also surprised they removed it and asked the mechanic about it. His response was that there is a right way and a wrong way. Carry on.

    1 Tire Worn on the inside-

    I replaced the tire today and have an appt at Florida Spring and axle service in the morning. Keeping my fingers crossed and a positive attitude that they?ll resolve it quickly, efficiently and inexpensively. ?. ThankYou to all that expressed an opinion.  Will give an update as to the resolution.

    1 Tire Worn on the inside-

    Gary, its worn only on the inside of the tread around the perimeter of the tire only. The outside 75 %. Is normal.    I took an 8? straight edge and held across the face of the 2 tires and the front portion of the 2x doesnt touch at all , in fact there is approx 2? gap.    Thats a lot of bending.

    Wiring a Fantastic Fan /vent Question.

    Today i used a fiberglass fishing rod to snake the wires from the bath fan that had power to the kitchen vent that had no power. It was actually very easy and only took a few minutes. 8)  Tomorrow i will remove the vent from the roof and install the new fan, wiring and the whole caboodle  :) .
