Why are you driving to Reno for internet to research parts.

You have telephone service, right? You can get everything you need with a toll free call.

No chance of getting one of the 88 copper land lines either, I guess?

Hey David;

There are a bunch of us that have a set of axles left over after
installing the Manny 1-Ton kit. Manny probably has a lot of them also.
Probably expensive to send them. However, if the bolts are loose, just
tighten them back up. They will go 40 miles at least I would think.
