    Stuart, you can't let bears hibernate that long. They wake up grumpy. Sundays work for me! Saturdays means Jodie can come along. Scott, what do you need for your house? I know a little in that field.

    Ok, I think the guy that got the 656 runs a tow company in Monroe. Think his name was Seth? Is mountain highway same as pacific ave? Then that's Stef. If not, I dunno but I will always be happy to drive by and see a new deuce! If it is a black bobber you saw, that's me! Picking up parts...

    What, you're going to let 2" of solid steel stop you? hmm. it stops everything else. Maybe you have something there? I'm thinking you could drill press it for the shank. The really hard part is tapping the 2" of steel for threads. Though technically you could drill 1/2 of it slightly...

    Actually, the thought is not to drill the receiver tube, but to drill the shank of the hitch. removing the slop is by tightening the bolt to the side of the receiver, which draws the slop out. At least, that's the way it looks in my brain.

    Harold, you're a genius! Wanna know why? Your solid hitch thing is perfect! But rather than use the hitch pin as the tightener, drill a 1/2" hold behind the hitch pin hold and then thread that. I'd think from the side is easiest to lock down the receiver. You could go from the bottom too...

    Hey WScougarx? On the shim thing, there are a few methods of securing the hitch in the receiver, the best one I've seen is to have a threaded insert in the hitch, and actually tighten it to the receiver. Bike racks often have these, but I bet we could fab up on with some grade 8 bolts and...

    Hey Little Red? Take Tony up on his offer. He can fix a broken space shuttle with a tin can and a bit of bubble gum. Then, plan on driving it out. Don't let a break down bother you, I bought two trucks and both of then broke down going from SLC to Seattle near Boise. They both made it to...

    Oh, one more bit of bad news. I probably won't be able to attend, I've got family coming in from out of town. They may want to go, but I'm not counting on it, since they have their heart set on the puyallup fair for the day. Scott- lost your number when I replaced my phone. The aluminum is...

    rolling18, I've done a clutch. Things to remember. The sprague shaft need to be retracted for transmission removal and installation. The flywheel bolt holes are NOT symmetrical, it will fit only one way. You should have a clutch alignment tool or putting the transmission back sucks. If you...

    Hmmm. I might stop at costco to pick up lots of red meat. If we have grills there, I'll leave mine at home. If not, let me know. Scott, definitely want to see you mount up the 395's!

    I believe Jodie and I can make it. We don't know which vehicle we're driving, but we'd be happy to bring BBQ stuff.
