And in your first post you said you have a set of spare spiders...why did you buy new ones??
Crack heads are key, they are everywhere, scout trailer parks, alleys and knock on doors. My boss picks up cars for scrap, he is willing to give me pretty much anything I need for nothing or scrap value (which is squat right now) This is how I got my posi third member for my 9'' and a few spare axle shafts. We get a couple pickups in a week, with patience one will come around with what I need, always does. But like I said, can't be to picky, no king pins then oh well.

And yes if your wondering my boss is a really generous guy.

As for the spare spiders, my friend though he had spiders left over from when he geared his truck but he was thinking of the carier because he had to change it for the 4.56s. so I just ordered some new ones. There is a set at work still in the axle but I'm not going to roll around in the dirt and take that super rusty ttb turd apart over $100 worth of parts.
