I'm closing down my storage unit in Phoenix and have the items below for sale. I'm only in Phoenix for a short while and need this done before the end of April.

- Two square top OEM seat bases that swivel, in good condition. They both have the little storage door on the front face by your feet. The passenger side one had holes cut in the front door and rear face for small muffin fans to cool the Howell fuel injection computer that was located in the seat base. $60/pair and I can't ship them.

The following stuff was replaced when I installed the one ton front end, there was nothing wrong when it was pulled, and the stuff is all serviceable.

- Two OEM, complete, drive half shafts. The CV boots are not torn, but probably should be replaced before going to the trouble of installing the half shafts. They're in a wood crate that the one ton shafts from Manny came in, so I could ship them if necessary. Best Offer. Don't be shy, someonewho contacts me is getting them!

- Xantrex TrueCharge2 40 amp charger, 804-1240. Excellent unit, but I'm going to rewire the coach with a Progressive Dynamics power center with built-in charger. Xantrex's page:

A review:
http://www.rvdoctor.com/2011/03/product-spotlight-xantrex-truecharge2.html
The only difference between the latest model TrueCharge2 is "This NEW feature allows two chargers to work together to combine the output current, achieving up to 120A for large battery banks." which isn't a feature that anyone in a GMC needs.
$125 firm plus shipping.
I believe I have the remote panel and battery temperature sensor for the charger as well, but they're buried in storage. Hopefully I'll locate them this weekend.

I have a Festool MFT 1080 table that I don't want to bring back East with me. Make an offer!

Richard !!

Pleasure to see you in Tuscon - would have liked to hang out more...

That Festool table is interesting to me... but then I'd have to begin a collection of Festool tools.

And I have a few too many collection of stuff already Smile

Steve,
The Festool world is a cult like the GMC world. It's a cult, but it's a good cult! Smile

I'd been eyeing Festool for a long time, but couldn't get around the price. I bought a Festool jigsaw on eBay years ago. I bought a Festool jigsaw on eBay some years ago, received the package, opened it up, took it into the backyard, made one curving cut through a 4x4, went inside and started buying more Festool stuff. I've had the good Bosch and DeWalt jigsaws and they weren't even close. Perfectly perpendicular cut through a pretty small radius curve in a 4x4. Shocked

I would let you have the table on an open-ended loan. If you ever get rid of your GMC I'd want the thing back toot suite! Dave Woods will be retrieving his Birchaven from Carl Stouffer's mechanic here in Tucson. I may be pinch-hit driving it back, but in any event and whomever is driving, his coach could be used as one of the ponies in the GMC express to get it to you. He's in Coronado.

Let me know if you're interested.

I would have liked to hang out more as well, but the GMCMI conventions leave me thrilled/exhausted and I never get to spend as much time with people as I'd like. I think I might ask Kim Weeks about the possibility about having a continuous rolling rally convention where we pick up and drop people off so we'd have more time. Cool

Richard

Now you post them. I just yesterday got 2 calipers delivered from Rock Auto and they were shipped from Mesa. They were only $20.00 each so it is not a big loss. I always seem to miss things by a day or two.

What do you want for the half shafts? Sounds like I would need to rebuild them. Shipping would probably be prohibitive.

Thank You Richard !!

That's an extremely generous and attractive offer - but I really am trying to reduce my collections. You're certainly not helping.

Were the half shafts quiet, no clicking when removed?
Just drove up from Florida through Georgia yesterday in my GMC with clicking a clicking half shaft. Cannot tell what side it is. Too bad. I could have picked them up.
How much do you want for them?
