Roll Me Over
*****
I think it is time for me to get under this and oil the frame rails and all the lines. Last year I replaced the fuel pump assembly due to the metal pipe rusting through. I had better try to stop the rust now or loose a good truck too early.
I have lost both my Turbo Gen1 and my 94 Mighty Max from rusty frames. It sucks up here and we do not even have the chemical deicer spread on our roads. That stuff kills new cars.

Michael, I am interested, I would just assume to get the full unit. Wrapping or boxing it might be interesting. It could travel FedEx ground, I would not expect that to be over 150#. It can travel on my account and I would cover your time.

The other thing I may want to consider is changing over to an LSD in the back so getting a non locking diff would be of interest as well. I do have an Eaton LSD unit here I could swap into an open carrier.


Cheers, Charlie

OK Charlie
Just let me know when and if you want it. It's not in the way here on the ranch. My time is retired time so there no cost involved. I'll ask around how to package it.
