Met up with crazyredneck!

crazyredneckanyhow was interested in a set of wheels I was selling so we met up in Bridgeport yesterday and made the exchange. Hope these wheels finally get some good use! They've been sitting in my garage for the past 10 years.

Dave, it sounds like you have a bunch of fun projects going on. It was good to meet you and I'll try to get that axle measurement for you today and post it up.

Checked that spare axle shaft I have and it does indeed taper down. Its about 1.5" dia down near the bearing and its around 1.25" at the splines.

You can see it here....

Yeah, the whole thing fell together pretty fast. Dave pm'd me late Thurs night and I told him I'd be up that way shopping in a few weeks to bring em up. Then I found out Friday that it would be Monday instead of a few weeks.

Maybe one of these days we can get a real G2G somewhere up that way.

For some reason members in this area come and go fast, must be something wrong with me, I am here to much.

Ghunt up in Morgantown shows up more and longer than most people have in this area, but I see him in the IDI forum a lot.
