Have you ever used and IR gun to check temps
Hi Guys
Was wondering if any of you have used and IR gun to check the drive train temperature on a Ferret?
On my CMPs I make it a practice to check the drive train of trucks after any drive of length. Using a check sheet I record the different points, transmission, transfer case, brake drums, wheel bearings, etc. If anything is out of line it jumps out pretty quick. The one time I didn't check a +10 F (of norm) wheel bearing temp that was out of line the next time I drove the truck nearly lost a wheel the axle nut keeper had failed.
Would think with a complex drive train like a Ferret you would get a good hold on what normal temps should be.
Cheers Phil
