Your right Rick,just lucked up on them, they were posted on the 503, I just happened to be on there when he posted them, only 50 miles away, going to put them under the shed with my other junk, my wife doesn't call me Fred G. Sanford for nothing, I guess he sold his treasures though. :lol:

Getting back on the Titan jeep, cutting the floors out with .040 cutoff wheels, going to use my cutouts to shear my new panels, that should give me the right gap to weld back in.

Yup, went and got it early this morning, haven't had my drink yet :lol: , I was nervous all morning thinking they were going to check the value and try to give my money back, too bad they didn't know what they had, too late now. :D

Just had my glass installed, he installed this type of seal, said I could replace the glass with ease in the future, $100 total.

I have a temp gauge question, the one on the left came out of the Ally Cat, the one on the right is an NOS I want to replace it with, is it a direct replacement or have I read the gauge has to match the sender? Thanks Hambone

Has to match the sender, now the question is, did it work correctly in the Ally Cat? It will not harm anything to plug it in and try it, if you know the thermostat is good then it will be obvious if the sender is right or wrong. You don't even have to install the gauge, plug the two wires in and then run a ground wire with alligator clips from the gauge housing to a good ground.

Finally took the time to build my rotisserie, too much dust in the shop from sanding and grinding, built it so I could hook up to my tractor and pull in and out of shop.

I am not seeing any rotisserie action on the tractor end? I assume there is more to it? Good idea with the big tires, got to look into that one.

Both ends are the same, it's 2" inside 21/2" pipe, I put holes in pipe in 90 degree increments so I could pin it when I spin it, I think I will weld a nut on the 3" and insert a bolt so I can tighten it down on any angle.
