Cool,thanks Cool,thanks :rofl:

I am kicking around some ideas for a front axle made mostly from parts I have collected over the years. I noticed that Scout front Dana 44's use the same hub lockouts as the early CJ's did. My questions are 1) does the Scout fronts use the larger series u-joints (U-297 IIRC) 2) Will the Scout...

The biggest problem with this one is that it came from and early 80's pontaic sunfire. It has lots of plastic junky looking parts. Just doesn't fit the Willy's persona. I was hoping to find something simpler that looks like it belongs there. [Qoute=alf4444] I've got a gm tilt in good shape...

I am trying to get the wife's Willys going. (See avatar) The original column has been replaced with a GM tilt column that is so worn out that holding the steering wheel up is the hardest part of driving it. It is also big,green and ugly. Does anyone have any recommendations for a...

You probably would have been too, had you been in the wrong place at the wrong time. Besides I thought one of the basic tenants of Christianity was that of having past sins forgiven. Am I wrong??

We just went over Easter weekend. We spent 1.5 days at the National Air and Space Museum on the Mall. It is awesome. They also have a new museum out near Dulles. You can buy shuttle tickets that will take you there and back for $14. Do not eat at the Museum if you can help. Most expensive...

Only advice I can give is to stay away from jobs that require shift work. It takes years off of your life, makes you a generally cranky person, and screws up your time with family and friends.... Ask me how I know. :rofl:

I carry the HF ball joint press. Everyone borrows it on the trail. Much better than a hammer and socket. I think they are $19.99 when they go on sale. http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/Displayitem.taf?itemnumber=38335 Works good for U-joints. Try doing one at home with it first, as...

DO something!! These are the guys that will get the trails closed. If they are doing stupid sh** like that out there, what else have they done/will they do?? I think some pictures and a call to the authorities would be one way , but I would have said something to them. It's a shame that someone...

A new Unlimited huh? Nice. We went down and drooled on 'em a couple of Sundays ago. Maybe next year.

Way cool Greg!! Sounds like a great start!

They really didn't do any damage. They ran out about 1/4 tank of gas. If they did do any damage, it would be a good idea - if the fingerprints come back as theirs. (The ignition switch was a problem I should have fixed a year ago.)

BTW have you ever rekeyed a Ford?? :)

The county sherrif's did a good job. I was expecting them to just say "here's your truck see you later" , but instead they did a first class investigation. I was impressed.

I'm a Saint Bernard. :rofl: I'm guessing that has something to do with my build!??? Cool site!

Thanks mbryson and thanks to everyone who tried to help. :)

Yeah, but it looks like we got 'em this time around!!! I decided to drive around and look for my truck for a few hours this morning, looking in places that it mihgt have been abandoned and I hit the jackpot. Not even a block away it sat in a nearby apartment complex. The thieves had left...

No, it is a single rear wheel. Marroon is the color. Plate # is 761XEX.

It's not the end of the world. It's been paid for for a couple of years, so I won't get anything from my insurance co. I mostly just need transportation. I may have to get Emily's Subaru licensed so I can get to work until the truck turns up. It had a half tank of gas in it, and I doubt they...

Yeah the ford's definately the choice I'd make. The truck is 2wd mbryson.
