No, John Cox finally talked me into selling them to him. Not that I regret it, but equally useless destination. :flipoff2:

It's been a while.
A few biggies and a lot of odds and ends...
- Cleaned out rat poop and acorns. A LOT of both.
- Broke top off (rusted) to open tank, cleaned out rubberized crud from tank....
I have a workaround, it's the axle. I've used it to tow people out, like Scott on Saturday. But I also own D-ring mounts that could be put into the bumper. Just extra work. :)
I need to:
- pack:
-- tow strap
-- tree saver
-- ice chest
-- water
- install the battery disconnect
- replace the power steering pump
- replace the leaking ram
Replaced the fuel filters:
Top of the Tank - Wix 33003 (see through)
Between the Pump and the Engine - Wix 33481 (metal)
I've just gotten the 1350s from stores. Nothing special. They all seem to sell sealed ones. The last one was from a Chief Autoparts outside of Alto. I've never broken one of them, just the u-bolt...
More Precision part numbers and applications. I wish I would have found this before. These things were a PITA to find until I found someone that knew U-Joints. That guy was the manager of the...
Here are the part numbers for real U-Joint U-bolts. These aren't the crap that they sell in the Help section. Fine threads, thick bolts.
Precision 330-10
Renumber 2600178
These fit mine. I'm...
Yes, it rocks. I've been wanting one for some time. Used them before. Home Depot doesn't carry the backing plate and nut for my grinder (which some how got lost), so I bought that instead.
I was...
Here are my new center pins. Break that you ****ing trail! :D The new 8" bench grinder kicks ass. Merry Christmas to me.

At least you know not to call me at 6:40AM Scott. :) Big thanks to Cook and Flem for helping me get it back on the trail. It took longer to eat my sandwich and heat it up than it did to twist it...
Here is the latest addition of trying to stay away from custom parts and opt instead for off the shelf replacements. The soft hose from the clutch master hardline to the clutch slave cylinter. The...
Oh John, you're so silly. But to answer your question, someday. Why is my bender in your way?

Thanks St. John. I ordered two MP-13 Single Fitting w/ Bleed Valve $26 ea.
I'm going to run a hose down to the bottom, run a T and...
Sweet. If I get it in time, we can have tunes for Gilmer. :)
Time to order fuel pickups...
New tunes coming soon:
Sony - 50W x 4 In-Dash CD Deck with AM/FM Tuner - CDXGT21W
Sony - 6" x 9" 3-Way Car Speakers - XS-GT6935A
I traded in an old gift and gift card. $14. Yeah.
Prefect. Thanks!
I'm guessing I could go either:
MP-13 Single Fitting Yes $26
MP-16 Flowthru-90 No $26

Flem and Seth helped get everything tied up on Friday and we got on the road. It took me a while to get it dialed in. I'm a little rusty on the driving also. After a few obstacles and several rounds...
No no no. Just the bell housing cover peice that was on there. Let's not get carried away. :)
That dick will probably send it eventually. It will just obviously be after the date that I needed it. Bad feedback here I come.
So on to the good news. Exhaust and slave hose came off of the bus...
Yes, I need some (Seth & Brian). The mail is in and I don't think they're here. This is what I had on there:

I paid by...
Started last night. Just about everything is done except for the steering pump, exhaust manifolds, and slave cylinder hose.
No manifolds in the mail yet. Atkinson Toyota let me down on the slave...
$35? That's rich.
I'm not spending that much on switches. At least not for this rig.
EDIT: The breakers are cool though.
Gotcha. The motor mounts are welded in. A little sloppy, but I don't think it's going anywhere. We turned the motor over. It's getting spark. Fuel line fittings will be done tomorrow. Fuel plumbing...
