  3. I've got a 1996 AX5 with external slave. If interested PM me your zip code and I can figure a price shipped. It's probably going to weigh 80-90 lbs crated so if there's any way to ship to a business address it would be cheaper to ship there.

  5. Last summer I rattle canned the family boat, 1987 Starcraft 18'6" Superfisherman. Materials: 3M eraser wheel for all stickers - $44 (used about half of it) (8) cans Navy Rustoleum Gloss Protective Enamel - $32 ($3.88/can, caught a sale at Menards) (10) cans White Rustoleum Gloss Protective Enamel - $40 (2) cans Regal Red Rustoleum Protective Enamel - $8 (2) cans Silver Rustoleum Metallic Enamel - $9 (12) cans SprayMax 2K Glamour Coat Clear - $192 (local Automotive Paint Supply had special going @ $15.70/can) (2) cans SprayMax 2K Epoxy Primer - $32 (2) cans Rustoleum Filler Primer - $8 Misc - $200 for Respirator mask, tape, sandpaper, masking paper, tack rags, Prepsol, Box-O-Rags, Evercoat Lightweight Filler... Total - $569.00 Process: Wheeled off the stickers Sanded areas needing body work with 80 grit Applied Epoxy Primer to bare metal spots Sanded whole boat with 220 grit Sprayed Filler Primer on areas looking low or where factory base coat looked thin Put Lightweight Filler where it looked like it was needed and sanded with 80 grit then 220 grit (this was longest step as I had to do a lot of the spots 2-3x to get level) Made sure any plastic filler had primer on it Sanded whole boat with 400 grit Sprayed the color in 2 coats - 1st coat light then 2nd coat heavy. Let it sit for 3 days Sprayed clear in 2 heavy coats 2nd pic is color without clear Putting on the color is the trickiest, the Spraymax clear flows great. I tried one of those spray can trigger handles but it was hard to control the flow. Once I learned to keep my finger from going past the front of the spray nozzle the sputtering and dripping stopped. Definitely practice with a can of Rustoleum to get the feel. Used boat all last summer and even towed it back 300 miles to where we keep it and it still looks great.

  7. Donation sent. I also agree that the image looks great, very appropriate given the circumstance.
  8. Took a knee when I saw Don passed. I'm another that never met him in person but appreciated his candor, sense of humor and immense knowledge. Prayers to his family.
  9. Roll HOrnbrod!! Get well soon. Miss reading your responses and posts.
  10. Worth checking the Blower Motor Resistor AND the electrical connector on it. Tons of pics on line showing how they can melt. When I changed my blower motor I also changed the resistor and the harness, there are kits that include both and you splice the connector wires into harness at a point where the existing wires aren't brittle.
  11. I've run Costco Michelin X LT AS on my wife's last 2 vehicles, both smooth on highway with good grip on wet or snowy roads. 99 XJ where they went 70,000 miles 01 Escape where they have 30,000 on them and still have great tread I put a set of Cooper AT3s on my 98 2WD Ram and it's very smooth on highway as well. Good traction wet or snow.

  13. Glad it missed you. Consider finding an Insurance Claim Advocate to maximize coverage by your insurance company. Also get a couple of independent quotes, we had a lot of bad weather up here last year, (high steady winds with micro-bursts upto 80 mph), and a co-worker of mine had to fight for his coverage. The insurance company's adjuster came in at a 3rd of what was really needed but he had a couple other estimates and got the funds to do the job right.

  15. The last big piece I need for my project is a 4.10 geared Dana 30. I utilize www.car-part.com all the time and found there's a few different searches one can try to capture Comanches and Cherokees in their system. On the left is search selection criteria entered - on the right is what is returned as options to search for and the model years returned. So FYI - if your'e looking here's what you can find.
