Gave away the last of my BIL's farm critters last night. Was sad to see her go, but a friend of Carl's agreed to take his goat. She was lonesome and needed a new home. Would like to have kept her but not right now. Also caught the last remaining hen and the guy took her too.

Maggie and I took a walk and at the pond, there was a doe and her fawn. Such a quiet, peaceful place.



Managed to get a couple of pics in Burleson, while she was clean:

There's one of these in a broken down leanto behind the barn. I'm getting the itch to restore it.

Hey guys,

Question - Are the Ujoints on my 2004 2wd 2 peice drive shaft serviceable... I can't tell because I hear some are and some aren't. I can snap some pictures if that helps.

Also, where on earth do I get a replacement rack? Tasca only appears to sell everything including inner tie roads, and I already have new moog ones. Would you consider an aftermarket brand? I see cardone makes one and I saw Motorcraft is sold on JCwhitney. Didn't see them at many other places that I trust. RockAuto I didn't see MC on either

if you bring it to a knowledgeable driveline shop they can service about anything....

on the u joints....if the bearing caps have clip retainers you should be able to find and replace them....

if the bearing caps don't have the clips then a driveline shop should do the job....I have done them because I've got the tools....

for your front rack....IDK

is that a woods belly mower? Also, older internationals are 1: cheaper to restore than Deere, 2: simpler in areas, 3: don't look to bad with a fresh coat of paint.
that last one burnt rolling out of the mouth of a John Deere lover...
