I don't know what you are doing with the old rig, but I might be interested in a few things off the 62. If you are parting it out or sending her to the crusher. Thanks.

Im unfortunately gonna be parting it out. I wish there was another way that I could do it, but financailly its better for me to do it that way.
What do you need?
Ill be taking the tires, rims, axels, springs, seats, drive shafts, shocks, shock towers, t case and possibly the power steering gear box, but the rest is gonna go. RustyTLC wanted the rear bumper, but the rest is gonna be up for grabs.
Ideally, Id like to get another set of axels and see her go to a good home, but....I just NEED the axels, diffs, rims and tires to go on the 40. There is too much money in those items alone that I wont get back out if I sell her complete and Ill be re doing ALL OF IT.

Its gonna be a while as I plan to keep wheeling her till I cant go any further with the 40 build without putting the Blotch rig out of comission.

Keith

Keith,
I hear ya. The dana 60's under my wagon are under their second rig. They started out under my IH Scout 80. Anyhow, I need the winshield wiper linkage stuff. I would also like to help take it out as I can't figure out how to get it out and back in on mine. The plastic do hicky parts are brittle and all broken so I have no reference on whats what. Also I am still in the market for the rear bumper if Rusty doesn't come through. Thanks.
David

David,
Ill post up when the time comes. Might be really soon, or it might be a while. It all depends on how quickly I can afford/ find stuff to do the build.
Im in the OCD build mode right now and cant sleep very well at night...
Hopefully sooner than later, but well see.

Keith
