corners were crushed/deformed in the accident. an executive decision has been made... at least now they are smaller pieces that are easy to stash behind the trees.

at this time I don't have a lwb that I'm willing to cut up rather than sell whole. whenever it is that I can make another trip north that is. who knows what this upcoming year will bring. I'm still hoping that I can indeed fit 4 on that flatbed uhaul trailer and thus be able to justify the fuel for a wide swing off my normal I-75 path (i.e. either up the east coast or over towards MN).

the glass is the same for 4dr XJs 84-96. very common.

last night another bed was delivered to my house (huge thanks to Tex06!) and with my back mess up I figured the easiest way to unload was to just slide it over to the trailer on 2x4s to bridge the gap. worked like a charm.

what the heck, man! sooooo, when are you moving out of state?

It's decent. has some flaws here and there but is otherwise solid.

personally I don't have an answer for ya on that. what would you be running up front? if it's a stockish dana 30, the 8.8 and 8.25 are infinitely available right now.

old ads are just the best also:

guess I need to go check that out in the daylight

pie all day RC trucks or RC planes

"inside flares"? you mean the little bit of black plastic that hides the flare hardware?

also: Tex06 delivered #9 to me today from Louisiana because he is a freakin' legend. details and photos in the morning. also, also: his truck is totally drool worthy

not really. or at least not at this time. the only 2 messed up beds are both messed up in the rear.

it's one thing when you bring in the next generation on a project, it's a whole 'nother level when they bring you in on a project. you're for sure doing something right! also many of us feel your pain and I just couldn't not share:

oh yeah, I'm sure that'll go over well with my folks. the thought is intriguing but I don't own property so... no. but if someone else wants to do it, you're free to come pick it up

I got it for free so no loss if I just scrap it. it may look ok, but the area above the flares is thick with bondo/rust/newspaper and the rear has been squished in an accident. I just can't figure out any reason to keep even a part of it. (aside from the flares, bent tailgate and gas filler neck of course). it really pains me, but I've got to make room and keeping something with 0 value just can't happen.

absolutely. precisely why I'm just taking a half and only for sleeping. during the day I want to be on top of any warning signs.

Picard zombies or skynet

gotta give it to the guy that put this mashup together.

sweet! are you still changing the system over to TBI?

on occasion I pull a muscle in the middle of my back, practically crippling me. don't know if it's the same muscle each time, but it's always in the same general location. one thing I've noticed is that it's NEVER when I'm doing something stupid, like wrestling with a Comanche bed. I spent all week moving rocks around, hauling heavy or awkward things out of junkyards, and today I was dropped mid-sentence as I was just standing there and turned slightly to the left. what the heck you stupid body! It could be worse (things can always be worse) as my dad has had spinal issues much of his life, but jeez that sucked. due to my other health issues I don't feel "good" every day, and so losing a day like today that could have been quite productive really stings. but the pain has subsided and tomorrow is another day. might pop half a muscle relaxant tonight. how many of you guys have back pain related stories? I'm sure there's more than a few. the human body sure is... complicated.

I can't even find an answer using google. they are a different part number than earlier shafts though. what brings on this particular question?

lol. gotta remember that one

tried car-part.com yet?
