I tried but I couldn't find a payphone anywhere in that village of yours.  My cell had no service.  :pokinit:, I even went by your house, but somebody was nowhere to be seen. :blah:

This is NOT a pic of the finished weld, it's got more beef but I didn't take a picture of it.  There is a plate on each side of the carrier, and the gears themselves are welded together.

I didn't want to get on it too hard, but there is two patches of rubber there!

Dave didn't weld this one. :gap:

I've got some spare 4.10 units :shudder: , so come Rubicon time, I'll have one stuffed away.


You know, this is one thing I swore I would never do, but with MCR coming up quick and I have no cash for an Aussie, not to mention the delivery time, I figure WTF?

:headscratch: Wierd. Let me guess, loud explosion sound, and when you pulled it, the plate steel was no longer welded to the spider gears.... :dunno:

unlock/lock twice/3times, wheels locked, spit out driveshaft, and that's all she wrote.  Haven't torn it down yet.

I'm just hoping the gears are OK.

If you need a spare, drive up to Dave's and pull the 3rd out of the 83. It probably needs some work, but between the 2 you can probably get one.

He is fast. Did you get a detroit? I read that you were asking about putting gears on one.

I'm thinking about it.  I'm getting tired of dicking around.  I'll post some pics of the carrier in a little while.
