Puget Sound/Seattle NW Area Riders Meet HERE!!!
The SALVAGE OPERATION (Beverly Hillbillies, Scene 2 Act 2 )
I remembered being told about a NAPA a few miles down the street, so into the trunk went the front half of the drive-line and OFF I WENT!!!!
stopped at the Texaco for Directions and headed SOUTH!!.... Made it about a 1/4 mile and SPIED a Junkyard / tow service on the left called "TOWING"!,...... Actually it was Mikes automotive Shop!!. The 2 guys there said "come on in", looked at what I had going, pulled the old bearing off, Cleaned up the drive line and set the new bearing (NO WAIT!) and all for $20 (IF YOU NEED HELP AT BEVERLY, YOU NOW KNOW WERE TO GO!!!
I'm back to feeling good again!!!
and...... It mounted back on, yeah!!!!, (the shop guys gave the little details on how to do it right!)
Believe it or not, the truck and trailer made it home by 6:30 tonight, (only a 2 1/2 hour repair job!!)
AM I LUCKY OR WHAT!!!

Went out to tahuya today and I talked to a DNR guy.
First of all, they have NEW TAHUYA MAPS up at dnr.gov for the first time since '96.
I havent checked it out yet and am out of toner.
I talked to him about trail width and their 50 inch trail width rules among other things.
He was a nice guy and had tons on info to offer.
He Marveled at the new and improved monster. After he drooled on my bike, I asked him to wipe it off.

Any chance on getting a group calendar on this forum??? It's getting hard to keep track of dates.
I think YoDaddy is planning a Moses Lake trip 1/17... How about 1/10?

After many ideas, as posted last night, I was going to get the trailer back today with my brothers truck (which has no wireing [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img] ) and go after the truck later. We needed the trailer for Christmas guests
Then..... Made it to the local NAPA part store and talked to the counter guy (Steve)that I've known for a long time and also showed him the pictures I took of the damage.
EASY! he said
So for $35 I got the carrier bearing I needed and decided I knew enough to fix it (was that a good idea?)
So forget my brothers truck, I'm gonna fix the CHEVY!! (I don't need no stinkin Fords! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img], at least today)
So I got in the T-Bird (oh yeah, I needed a Ford after all) and grabbed Marci and headed back to Beverly HILLS THAT IS!!!!
Took off the Drive line and looked at the bearing and thought, How am I going to get that bearing off??.........
