Yup, those universals are correct, the rear hubs are also correct-

I think what I was giving you info about will work- PM me when you get a chance and I'll walk you through the recipe

and give you a list of parts to start hunting for

Wow! Great deal!

looks awesome Jake. great deal.

I said it once but I will say it again..................SCORE

Excellent!! As you say, that chassis looks mint! Seems the guy brought it & was so dissapointed when his dyed parts came out pink that he never got round to putting it together??

Good Find Jake if ya need some shocks I got plenty,for pic look in wanted tc3 shocks,when I was snowed in I built every shock I had. LMK. Johnny

This I don't understand. Why would you want to withhold information from people that share the same interests as you. I thought we were here to help each other?

OP- nice job on the score.

I am not withholding, but you must try to realize that as much as we all love this PUBLIC forum, we have caused ourselves some ebay grief because of some info that is spread here, if I know you--the info is yours. If I think that you are someone that is going to use the trick to whiten junk parts to ebay back to us than no, I won't share. Sorry I have been burnt by exiteing info before and am trying to protect us as well as helping us

Fair enough, I am just trying to understand and now I do. I guess I never would have thought of that. Thank you for informing me in a nice way.

How would you judge a person to be one of those kind of people? Is it due to them selling alot of new/used parts every week? Or does there feedback have a role in it? Just curious, because i wouldn't see the point of all the effort involved in the whole un-dying and re-selling.

Well, I see it this way ( and you don't fall into the "other" group ) but we have all been a victim of our own info on the bay, and it is/was what it is. But while a few sellers like to sell off of our info, I want this to be more of a "word of mouth" thing- not a EVERYBODY LOOK AT THIS!!!! thing. I just think that there are a few that don't need to know, and I guess since I came up with the method, that I can control it's use to an extent. And if I tell person 9, and person 9 tells everyone else then I will not share again. Everyone here except the noobs knows me, and I am very forthcoming with any info, I will help anyone and am a straight shooter. If you want to know ask via PM, If I don't know you--I'll share once I do.

Mostly I don't see a need to acclerate used parts prices when my trick might not even work
