Looking forward to doing at least one trail ride this year. I have not driven this thing for around four years! Just onto a trailer to move across a mountain pass or across town to move into one house or another...

Why are you going to repack your rear wheel bearings? They were never "packed" to begin with...

well what I meant was inpect them before re-install.

Murfreesboro....I was just there about two weeks ago for a couple of days doing some work at a food manufacturing plant.

I got another Scout out of my shop...(800 ~ just like the last one)...then TC (that 1/4 elliptic thing) is leaving again today....then Tractor and Stape (to be completed this week)....then the shop is MINE ALL MINE ~ and Snoopy will be pulled back into a real bay for completion and then comes some late-summer & winter wheeling.

Harvester of Sorrow... you weren't putting in a big freezer at Rich Products, Inc. were you???
