Help

Just looking to see if this deal I am working on goes through if anyone might be able to help....

I found a tranny for my Bronco in Rocky Mountain House. The guy needs a transfer case for his rig, which we just happen to have. If I seal the deal, (still in the works) just looking to see if by chance there is anyone going that way and then coming back within a few days. I am in Osoyoos and if I have to drive there to get it, it might just break the deal. Although the deal is pretty sweet as I don't have to put out any cash......just though I would ask.
On another forum I am on they have what is called the BOOB express. It is where when someone needs something taken or picked up, the guys on the forum do the transporting if they are going that way. Alot of parts transfered for nothing or next to nothing that way. One guy got a part from Alabama to Washington via about 10 people who just kept passing it along until it got to its destination......

Cool Idea

Thanks we are just trying to work out the final details with him. We have to get a transfer case to him, then pick up my tranny and a bunch of parts he has to rebuild it. I will keep you posted on what is going on with the deal.....

Yeah, but basically getting it for nothing, Al got the transfer case he wants from work for nothing. And he has all the parts for rebuild, he said it doesn't need to be rebuilt, but we are going to anyway.....

Okay, here is what I need......
I need an automatic tranny for my 90 Bronco......I will eventually be going to a standard, but for right now, want to get it on the road, so staying auto.......if the price is right will get a different one.....having trouble connecting with the guy in Alberta....he is away alot. Don't want to spend too much as no going to be in there forever. Let me know the details on that one though....Al is also looking for a replacement for his Bronco....his tranny is on its last legs....

Also in dire need of a tailgate for my Bronco. Mine is shot....

Thanks Sed

It would be nicer to get a tranny closer to home, it would get me on the road faster....

No kidding. The only good thing about having to drive to Alberta would be I could see my oldest daughter who lives in Red Deer. I only get to see her once a year. Twice if I am lucky. She works two jobs and is going to school so she doesn't have much time to come home.
