Default The community :)

First off, thank each and everyone of you, who helped me with my project. I'm sure allot of you don't even know you helped But you did ! I've read and reread these forums daily for tips trick's hint's and advice, and found plenty. To date I've, Fixed the fan clutch, tossed on a 3 inch lift from rovertime, fixed the caster, Fixed the fuel pump seal. (was leaking) Heater core, Ripped out the interior and totally replaced/re-skinned most of it. Ripped out all the audio wiring and rewired it, Added fog lights/backup lights, Added an extra accessory fuse panel, New ball joints, poly bushings, rebuilt the steering box, Made some new bushings for the window regulator out of brass. (plastic ones, dry rotted) and a bunch of other small things that i cant remember. The ONLY way i got this done was thru the shared knowledge of this forum, And the knowledge and patience of my father (im old he is older, its like tossing idea's back and forth between two rocks..Neather party receives anything :P But we got er done ) ! You guys are great, Thanks a bunch !!

PS, ill post pics soon, moving AGAIN so things are hectic.

Well u need a lathe. But its fairly simple. 30 bucks is pretty expensive. Its about 30 cents of stock. But u won't have to replace it in our lifetime.
