i'll add steak on the grill if you want to come to the Ozarks. Beer is always in the garage fridge

Steak in the Ozarks. I love steak and I love the Ozarks! That's tempting, I'm Jonesing, for Lamberts cafe! That's one of my favorites. Me and my family went on vacation to Branson in 2009. We were there for a week, by far the funnest vacation I have ever taken. Silver Dollar city (redneck disineyland) was a blast!

you were 30 miles from where i live. Steal your dollar city is how the locals refer to that fun place. when we first moved up here from MS our children were 3 and 18 months, and we bought season passes every year. living so close, provided us with a fun thing to do on the weekends, and the kids loved it. good memories. next time you come let me know, and we will kill a cow.

Sounds good, i definitely will. We plan on doing this trip again.

This really is easy, the hardest part of this other than weight is pulling the rear counter shaft bearing off. ITS TIGHT! Hopefully yours is good so you wont have to pull it.

WOW! Was i wrong! The hardest part of this rebuild is chiseling off the 50 years of grease and grime. HOLY SMOKES!

Yeah, grease that has been baked on by the AZ sun for 50 years.

soak it in gas, or diesel for a few days and pour it out
