Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Rear Tail Shaft Seal



Luke,
My comments were to the "uncouth" reply from Charles.
Here in Wichita Falls I trade at "O'Rielly's", "Auto
Zone", and a small independent called "Main Auto
Parts" so I share my wealth(thats a joke). Parts are
where youo can find them. They all give me flack over
my AMCs.
