Sparling's Panhandling Thread

[Sparling]

Anybody have any oh sh!t bars laying around or inside a vehicle they don't mind parting with? I need 2 or 3 of them, color and style don't matter too much. My truck is just high enough to make it hard for short people and my grandpa to get in.

[colman]

to bad you didn't ask last week. i just scrapped 2 along with a bunch of other random crap

[colman]

wait, i jsut checked i kept them. i have two of them from cj dashboards. good and sturdy. $10 and they are yours

[Sparling]

I'll take them. When is good for you for me to come get them? I'm in SA until tomorrow.

[colman]

monday night will work, 832 489 5974

[Sparling]

What about an overhead console, anybody have one of those laying around? I also need about a 10"x10" piece of scrap sheet metal, thickness isn't real important as long as it's thicker than a body panel and not thicker than 1/4".

[colman]

i have steel as well. call me after 530 tomorrow

[Sparling]

I still need an overhead console from somebody. I kind of like the ones from the 90's chevys if anybody has one. i won't pay more than 5 bucks for it.

[colman]

what do you want an overhead console for. look on cl for someone parting out a truck and give them a call. ive bought a lot of stuf for 5 bones on there

I use the one in the suburban quite a bit and I'd like one for more storage in my f-150

[Sparling]

Anybody have a piece of expanded metal no smaller than 63"X14" (with the long side parallel to the cut in the metal) they want to sell me?

[Sparling]

Anybody have a body panel from anything I can borrow/get for real cheap? I'm just practicing a few painting methods and colors so you can have it back when I'm done if you want.

Anybody have some small dimensioned lumber and about half a sheet of plywood? I need to make 2 small end tables.

Maybe the thread needs a name change? How about "Sparlings Panhandling Thread"?

[Sparling]

I can just start new threads in the future. But could a mod change the title to suit the topic since I need more than just handlebars.

Anybody want 20 bucks to go get my block and related engine parts from my ex's place and keep them at their house until mid-august? Apparently I can keep my carpet and fridge in her garage but an engine is too much, and she decided after I moved out and went back to San Antonio to tell me. There's an engine stand attached to the engine and I don't care if who ever uses it that keeps it at their house. I don't want to spend 70 bucks on gas just to move a damn engine.

[Sparling]

Anybody?

[agjohn02]

Let this be a lesson. Always get all of your **** from their house before you break up with them.

[uglyota]

Anybody?

[Sparling]

We broke up 2 years ago.

[uglyota]

2 years and she hasn't sold your crap out of her garage including a smallblock on an engine stand!? Spend the $70 in gas and $2000 on a ring and go down there and propose to that girl!

[Hot Pocket]

Where does she live? There's room for it in my storage unit.

[agjohn02]

tell her Bryan Iron and Metal will pay her to store it there

[Sparling]

I lived at her house for the first summer session and the engine is left from then, not 2 years ago. She lives off of villamaria and 2818

[RCcola55]

she hot?

[Sparling]

nope

[RCcola55]

summer standards?

[Sparling]

really low rent, my standards are always higher than her

[RCcola55]

nicely done

[TdmayfieldIV]

Sparling, you are panhandling in every fawking thread you post in

[Sparling]

What other thread did I panhandle in? The only other one I can think of is when ed mentioned that he had a 60 and I want a steering 60. You better not be giving me **** for panhandling in my own panhandling thread when you drag your talk of rockwells into almost every thread you post in, so go find yourself some fat german girl and stfu. :flipoff2:

Anybody? What if I change it to 30 bucks? If I have to go pick this up I probably won't be able to go to the Redneck Games, and I really want to go.
I can paypal money as soon as the engine is out of the garage.

[Sparling]

Anybody have a 4x4 5 speed? I don't care if it's a bad idea or if you think I should do something else, I just want to know if anybody has a 4x4 M5OD or ZF 5 speed for a small block

[RCcola55]

good luck finding that

[Sparling]

Just putting this out there to see if anybody has any 16ga 1" square tubing laying around. I'd probably buy it if anybody has some.

[DRAGOONRANCH]

Gonna build yourself a cage? You sure that isn't overkill? :flipoff2:

[Shaggy]

i have about 10 sticks of 3/16th 1" square if that is helpful at all

Looking for 7.62X54R, don't have enough cash for a tin of it and, and champion is out of surplus, all that's left in town is brown bear at Gander Mountain. Going out to the farm this weekend and I want to shoot quite a bit of it.

[NealtheDestroyr]

Check burdets. I saw some in there last weekend

have fun shooting quite a bit of it, i put maybe 30rds through mine this past weekend and im still hurting

It's for several people. I know how much shooting any large quantity of 54R sucks.

Edit: getting some from sharpe

[Sparling]

Looking for somebody with a manual parts truck so I can get a hydro clutch set up. I've got the trans, bell housing, clutch pressure plate, TO bearing and pilot bushing covered. Keeping my eyes out on CL, but if nobody has anything I'll just hit up a junk yard at thanksgiving.

Parts I need:
Slave Cylinder
Clutch Master cylinder
Clutch Line
Clutch/Brake Pedal Assembly
Metal Brace for Clutch master cylinder
Crossmember
Floor Access Panel
anything else anybody can think of

And a ford D44 front and 8 lug outers for it

[Sparling]

Anybody have an extra AK trigger guard laying around? I need one with a mag catch on it and I don't want to pay 25 bucks for one from one of the various parts websites

[Sparling]

I need all the parts from the spindle out from a 10 bolt, and the outer stub shafts. If I have to buy a whole axle or knuckles out that's fine, I'll just scrap the rest.

[robertf03]

if its 6 lug, 78 or newer big jeep (cherokee, wagoneer, truck) will work too.

[Sparling]

Should've specified. I need 8 lug stuff with the caliper bracket in front of the spindle.

[colman]

10 bolt and d44 outers *everything, is the same.....

[RCcola55]

Get in line, ive been waiting for the same thing to pop up for a year now. Every time i see it come around people want way too much

[colman]

all the sets that ive sold i got between 200 and 250 for

[Sparling]

Well fawk. I was looking for a cheap way to get 8 lug front so I can install my sterling and 8 lug rims/tires, but if it's that much I'll just wait until I can find a 60.

[colman]

ive bought whole 8 lug 10 bolt axles for 50 bucks too. deals are still out there

[Sparling]

I'm going to hit up the pick and pulls tomorrow before i leave town to see if they have anything.

Clarke, do you still have that dick cepek lift? I don't want to do a 60 right now so I'm thinking 10 bolt/44 outters and a lift to fit 8 lug rims and hummer radials.

[RCcola55]

yep i got it, let me know before tomorrow morning so i can bring it back to cs with me, also does the D50 ttb outers fit the D44, that may be another option

[KrazyKarl02]

No, it does not to the best of my knowledge.

[Sparling]

The only way to get 8 lug D44 TTB is to bolt on an entire D50 or D44HD assembly or 3/4 ton 10 bolt /chevy D44 spindles will bolt onto 1/2 ton TTB knuckles. I guess you could also weld the ends of the D50 or D44HD beams onto 1/2 ton beams but I don't see that as a viable option since it's my DD.

Clark I'll take that lift, you have a PM.

[KrazyKarl02]

Have you asked on Fullsize Bronco? I thought a TTB Dana44HD would bolt up?

[Sparling]

Have you asked on Fullsize Bronco? I thought a TTB Dana44HD would bolt up?

Everything I've read says the 1/2 ton and d44hd have different balljoint spacing as well as a different spindle bolt pattern.

http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=73223

Post 3 covers most everything about going 8 lug except the beams of all 3 fullsize ttb assemblies use the same crossmember and mounting points so you could swap an entire assembly out for another ttb assembly. Not sure what that guy was talking about with the 92+ spindles being 5 bolt. Everything else I've seen says 6 lug for all 1/2 ton. also weird that the d44 has more spindle bolts than the d50.

[Sparling]

Also a pretty sweet steering setup.

[KrazyKarl02]

I think your definition of sweet and mine are 2 completely different things.

[sam_hodnett]

what the **** kind of front axle is that?

[Sharpe]

what the **** kind of front axle is that?

Its the one usefull application of TTB with some goofy cantilever steering. I bet it has next to no bump-steer though :gigem:

[Sparling]

Karl, once you're finished with your SAS, what kind of ttb stuff do you have laying around? I'm thinking about a spare set of beams I can plate if I ever bend one of mine, and maybe extending some stock radius arms. Aftermarket radius arms are too bling for me.

[mudtoy67]

Check this one out. :D

I will have an entire TTB, I have spare axle shafts, I have 3.55 gears in it, I will also have 6" superlift coils, drop down radius arm brackets and the lift brackets, plus spare steering parts!

Do the superlift coils flex well? I read that they run pretty stiff and will limit travel quite a bit. How much you want for everything but the lift brackets?

[RCcola55]

i had the super lift coils on my bronco, they werent bad, but no deaver coil

[KrazyKarl02]

They flex better than stock, but they are not trail springs. They are a spring you can run down the road and not be scared of the wobble. I can tell you I can stuff the tire into my fender well. Frick had some super flexy coils, that are bad ass for off road, but scare the hell out of me when used on road.

These coils plus TTB will let you do this!

I really need the spindles though, backing plates are pretty easy to find, but spindles are either on an axle or non-existent. I'm going to get new rotors, calipers, bearings and warn hubs anyways. Thanks though.

I already ordered parts for my E4OD. I'm just looking for 8 lug 10 bolt stuff and doors. I wouldn't buy a whole vehicle unless it had a ZF in it. Travis when are you getting your welder back? I want to make sliders.

[JB]

I need 80-96 f-series or bronco doors.

There are chingoes of these at Gordons.

Buy the truck and sell what you don't need to recover costs...

I've been too lazy to go out there. I figured somebody would have some laying around eventually. Carsten might sell me his cheap.

The 5 speed train has left until my 5.0 blows up then I'll see about finding a 460 and 5 speed combo to put in.

Edit: just called gordons, they want 75 bucks for a stripped door. **** that.

Did you sound like you had all of your teeth when you called? And did you enunciate? If so, there's your problem.

[RCcola55]

$75 isnt bad dude.

[Sparling]

I know it's not bad, but people part these things out all the time, there's no reason to pay that much for something that I don't really need.

Maybe you should just buy this truck, it's GREAT running and a gas saver

Chevy 1/2 ton 44 spindles and outer shafts

[Hellbent]

What do you not need?

[Sparling]

What I need is 3/4 ton backing plates, rotors, and calipers, and 1/2 ton spindles and bearings. I know 3/4 ton spindles have bigger bearings but I can use the warn lock outs I have now with half ton spindles. And half ton outer axle shafts.

[Sparling]

Oh, I got 5 of those rims, with tires, cheap!

[Sparling]

I don't need tires, how much? I'll probably take 3 if they're cheap.

[KrazyKarl02]

I don't need tires, how much? I'll probably take 3 if they're cheap.

I don't think they are what you are looking for, they are some 16.5" tires that I cut the center out of and welded a 3/8" plate with the 5 on 5.5 pattern in it. They are great for a trail rig, but I would not drive on the street with them. I have done 45 mph with em!

[Sparling]

Yeah, I'm looking for some cheap steel rims to use on the street.

[KrazyKarl02]

The cheapest I found when I was looking were from that Company in California, I think they are called stockton wheel.

[Sparling]

A few days late on that one.

A cylinder for a 250 CID Ford Straight 6

I don't really need it but a 250 long block wouldn't be bad either.

[TdmayfieldIV]

Just one cylinder? A sleeve?

[Sparling]

I meant a cylinder head

[Sparling]

Just seeing if anybody has any of the stuff I need to finish my AR. Stuff I need:
Bolt assembly (not the carrier)
Low profile clamp on gas block
Stock (got one but it feels more suited to an airsoft gun)

Anybody have a set of d60 lock outs sitting around that they'd let go for cheap?

[KrazyKarl02]

If you are looking for 30 spline stock stuff, I think I have some. I will have to check. You know the lockout on old TTB F250's are the same as Dana 60's right?

[Sparling]

Yes. It's too hot to go to pick and pull. I have a super duty lockout with bad bearings on one side and an obs lockout that's all scratched up on the other. I want a nice looking/working set.

[KrazyKarl02]

Yeah, if you want a guaranteed working set, I'll put them in a box and **** in it, then I will guarantee there is a piece of **** in that box.

[Sparling]

Only if that service doesn't cost extra

[BroncoJo]

Sparling does like free ****....
