No worries. I will measure and throw it on my account at work.

My scrap metal guy dropped these off for me today. Wonder what I can turn them into.

Weld some rim's on um. Drive to the summet of the highest snow covered mountain you can find. Chuck your front wheels in the back, bolt those puppies on and take the "fall line" back down. That's a skiers term for following where a ball would role down the hill. Then report back!

Oh.. you might want to cap off your rear brake line, so you could lock the skies with the front calipers

Genius idea there Flintstone. Screw capping the brake line. Got to leave those skies unlocked so I can articulate down that mountain.

I meant cap the rear, so locking the front would be optional, with the petal. That there might take a few practice run's/Jeeps.

Here's a little inspiration>

Those little snow board bike thingies look like fun. Could totally do that. Just need some snow on the mountain and lots of beer.

Ian. I read in another thread that you might be doing the Rubicon in September. If so that's my hometown. Let me know and I can plan a trip to tag along.

New ball joints, UCA bushing and some paint. Can't wait to get this thing in. Will be running it as a dummy axle until it gets the new gears. No axles or drive shaft.

Hey Bubba..I'll fork over a C note, (and put you up for a night), if you'd come up here and give me a ride to SR. Also a buddy needs to go south to Ukaha on Saturday....Little desperate here. No bus service, and rent-a-car is over $200. Or ANYONE!
