Re: JPOR: Axle damage total

[Steve Friend <sfriend@xxxxxxxx>]

Well, lets see if there is some interest in my rear 44.  I plan to go to
the 60 soon.  I have the '72 narrow track, 4.27, detroit and Warn FF. 
11" drums.  

If anyone is interested, leave me an offer.  I will be back on Tuesday. 
Heading out to Utah for the Color Country Challenge in Cedar City.  

I expect a lot of messages when I get home, and might do a mass delete,
so change the Subject to "44" if you inquire on it.   

Toodles.
