Take some of your matress money and get a pre-paid visa, call AB or rock auto or go on line and use. Receive then install, move on to next project.

If you want to keep the rover running and don't want to spent a fortune at the dealer you might want to get a card of some sort.

when you grease your universal joints you are supposed to pump in new grease til the old grease is forced out

Tell your O'Reilly auto parts to check their vendor access website. IMC, I believe. I have only been back with them for a month (8 years since my last call of duty as I put it). I was able to order from that site a full D1 front axle wheel and axle seal kit, a few weeks ago.

You can always buy a USPS Money Order. Or get a used one from Paul Grant or Will Tillery. They might allow you to put small unmarked bills in an envelop and slip it in the mail.
