That new pump impeller cost me $650 but it kept us running in Mobile Bay

We were digging a channel last month when the old impeller started to vibrate bad. Shut down meant losing the whole day's contract. Swapped in the new one I had on the barge, took about two hours. The difference in suction was huge right away. What's the most you've spent on a single part that saved a job?

Yeah, that feeling in your gut when you swipe the card is the worst. But keeping the job going makes it worth it every time.

Had to drop 900 on a hydraulic pump once. Felt sick paying it, but it got the crane moving. Sometimes you just gotta eat the cost.
