You get any further luck on this? My overtime basically jumped up and swallowed me whole for a little bit. I'm going to sneak out early tonight for the meeting, and should finish the last of it Friday, so my schedule's starting to look a whole lot better.

The exhaust was smoking a wee bit but now it is cleared up. I'm assuming the piston rings have worked into the cylinder walls kinda like brake pads to rotors... Let me know when you need a lift to Va Speed... |

Front driver side axle inner shaft snapped. Fixed that with some chromoly axles with super joints. Replaced rear 5 leaf pack with a 11 leaf super flex from Bronco graveyard. Rear yoke broke the ear which holds in the cap on the u joint, so I found the yoke with u bolt style rather than straps. Fixed a rear brake line with an extended stainless steel line.

Dave and I started fixing the e-brake cable on the Bronco. Dave fabricated a new bracket to replace the one that was tearing off, and got that installed only to find that the 30 yaer old brake cable was froze up. Ordered that so the e-brake should be awesome. Thanks Dave for the on the spot fabrication work today and I'll try to get those hubs for you.

Got a new cam made for what I am doing with the bronco and found out the exhaust was dry rotting my fuel filler hose and chunks were getting in my gas tank clogging my pick up.  Had tank cleaned and steamed and she is running like a champ. ;D |

Hey Billy, get that Lokar cable and we'll stick that on and get you a little better throttle pedal feel. May have to play with return springs a bit. So am I gonna get a ride sometime? Let's keep off the Strip, though. I think she just wanted you to ask her if she wanted a ride.... ;D |
