Lately my wife has been working a lot of evening shifts. For the past couple months she has been carpooling with a male co-worker to and from work.
At first I didn't mind, I would rather have someone with her in case she has car trouble or something like that, but it seems that they have become a little bit more than friends over the past months.
I think a lot of the classic signs are there: The phone calls that hang up, she starts wearing nice clothes to work, she's talking about him all the time, etc. I'm concerned about these things, I'm not stupid. Plus, if I'm out in the garage with the lights on, working on one of the Internationals when she gets home (usually it's after midnight), he just drops her off and leaves. I noticed that if the lights are off in the garage and I'm in the house (they think I'm sleeping) they sit out in the car for around twenty minutes.
I asked her once what they were doing, she said "just talking." Yeah, whatever. So last night I decided that I'm going to see what really goes on out there.
What I did was this: I left the garage door open, but I turned out all the lights. About the time she usually gets home (she said she was "working late," again), I went out and hid in the garage and waited in the dark. I was hid up underneath the back end of the '68 1200 C Pickup that I brought home last week. In a few minutes, his car pulled up into my driveway. When his headlights shone into the garage and up underneath my truck, I saw something that I just could not believe. The Dana 60 rear end has a tag attached to the differential that I never noticed before. It says "Trac Lock Limited Slip." Does anyone know if this kind of axle needs a special additive when I change the oil?
