Jeff

why wont the thumbnails open for me just getting writing

are you using FireFox?

if so, when you get the "writing", save it as JPG and then go find it and view it.

it's a bug in this version of the forum software.

Or download the add on which lets you open pictures in an IE window...

I'm sure you can get it from other sites though...

Is it not related to his forum status?

Wouldn't of thought so... I thought that was just to do with posting messages, not reading them..?

thanks guys working now

There is a easy fix, by adding headers to the script, it send the type of file to the browser, so firefox knows its jpeg or other image.
IE just accepts anything, thats why its such a dangers browser

I replaced splineshafts and differentials inside transferbox last summer. I also replaced bushings and joints in front suspension. And removed sideskirts because some rust needed to be removed.

Something already missing.
Empty enginebay with new shafts.
Couple of remowed parts.

And on the coming summer I should rebuild this rear axle.

looking good people the other good thing about this post is people no who to ask about information of people that have done jobs all ready, and it will make life easy lol

Slightly off topic!

Where can I get those shafts or at least the specifications of them (ie. how many splines they have)?
It looks like they have been cut and new sections welded on - is this correct?

Thanks.
