I retired the beautiful spare I’ve been using as jewelry since I’ve been venturing farther from home these days in Patina

I found a nicely nasty disc brake wheel and had 49 Tire mount up another gem.

That has to be your favorite 40 ever!
 
Beno sent me a pinion seal about 3 months ago. Finally got caught up on projects and stuck it in there.

Hope that fixes the drip drip, otherwise it’s a speedy sleeve. I’m pretty sure all my other flanges have them at this point now.

No other leaks at this point. I’m not sure how many miles I’ve got on it at this point but I’m guessing about 4,000 based on the color of the engine oil.

$110 each out the door at 49 Tire Pros.

They are a bit noisy but totally pimp. Thanks.
 
Went for a spin to town. Patina took 15.5 gallons of fuel....that’s pushing it lol

There is a really cool old train at Canton by Barnett Phillips.

I hope that was a good needle bounce, otherwise really scary you don’t have two hands on that big’o wheel :eek: Did 80 in the diesel piggy once, scared the s***e out of me ... hood bouncing against the safety latch and all :steer:
