I had a little bit of a wobble at highway speeds but when I had the canyons mounted and balanced it stopped. try the simple stuff first.

yeah you're prob right on the money just saying it was a simple fix in my case. I'd be willing to help just for GP.

Nice Flipp, by the way, anyone know how tough it'd be to swap a Dana 35C with ABS to a Chrysler 8.25? I have another Jeep I'm looking at, it looks amazing and she only wants $1700 for it, but I don't know if it has ABS yet...

its not that hard. remove driv shaft/un bolt the u bolts/undo the break line/ remove axle. then do it in reverse. the e brake cables are a pain in the *** tho

ive got a 29 spline c8.25 that you can have if you get it. it just needs brakes and axle shafts. good candidate for chromos and a disc conversion

Thanks for the offer man, but I'm not going for it, 99% sure it's a scam, check out the e-mail she sent me-

"Hi again,


I'm a flight attendant at American Airlines and because I'm away most of the time I will not be able to deal in person. Before leaving I had pre-arranged the deal with Google Wallet so my presence is not necessary. The vehicle is in their possession ready to be delivered. Google Wallet will handle this transaction for me. The total amount that you will pay is $1,700 with shipping and transfer fees included. You will receive the car in max 48 hours and you will have the chance to inspect it for 5 days. Google department will hold and insure your money throughout the inspection. If by any reason you find something you don't like about it you can send it back at my expense and Google Wallet will send you a full refund. I'm sure it won't be the case because the car is in excellent condition. It will come with all the necessary paperwork (clear title, bill of sale, user's manual etc). You will receive all the original documents. I signed all the paperwork and the clear title is ready to be transferred to the new owner.

If you are interested to buy my van please send me your full name, shipping address and phone number so I can register the transaction with Google Wallet and they will reply you with more details and information about this transaction.


Thanks, hope to do business with you soon!
Caroline"
Yep, so legit.
