Yep, it's true. I just don't care that much.
Hey everyone,
I'm looking for some help on this one.
One of the guys here Patrick Belle-Oudry (AKcruzer) has been deployed to Iraq for just a few weeks now. He's a good friend of mine and his wife called today with a problem with his Cruiser. Some of you know Pat and more of you know the rig. It's the bronze colored FJ60 that I built for Bruce Miller a few years ago.
Anyway Pat's in Iraq, I'm in Alaska, and the rig is in Huntsville Alabama (Redstone Arsenal) so other than advice and suggestions there is not a lot I can do to help her with it.
Pat's wife has had some problems with her regular rig and was hoping to use his '60 as a backup. It has developed a pretty bad "clunking sound" that seems to be coming from the middle of the rig. The parking brake lever won't stay down either (This rig has an Wardens Billet T/C (early style non-split) so it has the ebrake on the back of the T/C.
I hoping that I can find someone close to Huntsville who could swing by and take a look at/listen to the rig. Maybe drop the driveshaft and pull the innards out of the parking brake so that she can at least drive the rig.
I'm gonna beg on this one if I have to. Help out a fellow IH8mudder. Help out a soldier serving his country. Help out his family who doesn't have a lot of local area contacts. Do me a personal favor. Whatever spin it takes.
If there's anyone here who can help let me know and I'll put you in contact with Pat's wife and we'll see what we can do for her.
Ill be cross posting this to the FJ40/55 and the FJ60 forum on Mud and on the LCML as well.
THANKS!!!
