The Lord has blessed me with so many Awesome friends and family! Jim has known me for several years...he has put up with listening to my crazy dreams and ideas, he's wipped me at the drag strip...only once and he was on the bottle I might add! :O) LOL! Sorry...just recalling some good times! Jim...I appreciate your friendship and how you are always willing to help!

 

From Rich and I, Thank you!

These are the finished half shafts. Rich ordered the center bars (rods, shafts) from Martin and I disassembled and cleaned up the joints...packed them with new grease and rebuilt them with the shorter rods.
