Thinking
The motor went out when I needed it most of course, - didn't bother finding a motor for it, replaced the vac pronto.
Have a tote full of attachments for those vacs. Purchased my first one in the 90's. Bought a house that was built on sugar sand back then and used that vac to excavate the sand for the sprinkler lines in the back yard lol. I had it hooked up to the table saw, bondo sander, bench grinder and drywall sander. It finally bit the dust on the drywall sander about 2 years ago. I trust them, got a ton of use out of that first one.
I've used it to suck the water out a flooded basement into a sanitary tube as well in a emergency situation and during the night.....after the sump pump took a sheet..
I have a gutter attachment for them, but never ended using that one.

Hard to beat a lifetime warranty with the Rigid units, and they're no slouch when it comes to performance. Honestly, I should've taken a closer look at them when I was shopping, but I got sold on the dB levels of this one. I got tired of needing earmuffs every time I used the old Craftsman. I do with is had the 2.5" hose, although I've not plugged this one up yet.

But he showed in his video, they basically don't need changing unless they are really rusted, broken or bent.
You can heat up the bushings on the leaf springs and replace them and the leaf spring will be much improved in their function.
If you live in a rust belt though, best to throw them out.
Saw an interesting vid made by Chris Fix on YouTube for leaf springs. New leaf springs are obviously excellent.

and well chrisfix...i don't listen to him at all. I think the stuff he says is hogwash, Over time especially if one consistantly hauls heavy loads, the leaves can lose their arch and become flat and then they are junk
There's 30 % PEA in there. Red Line is at 50 % PEA.
So their gas would be excellent.
