It should be quite obvious what the problem is. Don't worry about the bearings, it wasn't driven much if any at all without 2nd and 3rd. The metal usually just falls to the bottom and stays there. There is no oil pump in these transmissions.

Ahh the joys of a hard life of manual labor.:p

I could send it to him. All I needed from what you sent me was the throttle lever shaft. I still need to send you some $ for that too, just broke at the moment.

That is a fair statement.

You don't reckon he will have a big mess to clean up if it runs with the cover off? I know oil is going to come out of there.

Rusty, by that time all the engine rebuild components and good spare engines will be dried up too, not to mention other consumables. And what about transmissions? There aren't an omitted amount of them out there either and they break on a regular basis.

I AM THE GREAT CORNHOLIO! I COME FROM NICARAGUA! He he he , ARE YOU THREATENING ME???!!!

You really need to consider empty weight of the empty shelter itself too though no matter what you decide to go with. The container you are talking about sounds quite heavy and needs a lot of modification and work.

Like everyone else says, best thing to do is start with an S-280. You are going to spend a good bit of cash and a lot more time building any other type of enclosure anyway.

Cool!

I'm down if the timing is right.

Do not attempt to run the engine with any of these covers off.

Problem with people running flashers in inclement weather is that when someone does stop on the roadside and turn on their flashers, people think they are in a lane and moving with traffic up until they get over and slam into the parked vehicle.

You should be able to get them from one of the online suppliers, or you can send Steve a PM and see if he has any for sale or can point you in the right direction.

A 20' roll of 1/2" fuel hose and a box o hose clamps to match. A 30' roll of 3/8" dot air line, and the brass fittings to go with. Fuel filters.... Always fuel filters. And at least one gasket for between the turbo and exhaust manifold.

Looks to me like the retaining clip is still on there. You may have something loose or damaged in the fuel metering portion of the injector pump( the section toward the firewall). Try this; remove that little retaining clip from the rod you see, slide the rod out the back of the lever ( this...

Steve6x6x6 has the Newstar rubber boots on his A3 bobber, which he wheels hard, for over two years now without a tear. I bought a pair from him at the GA rally and so far the one I have installed has lasted longer than the last pair of rubber nos boots. He did mention that Newstar boots used to...

Agreed. If you have two parking spots in that contract, you are paying for them. That bobber is no bigger than any other pickup truck, just taller. Now if you have a habit of parking improperly and impeding other tenants ability to park comfortably I might understand where they are coming from.

It was a fleeting thought. You think that is the way to go?

Nah, once you removed one rear axle everything else is kind of a moot point.
