Why you should never get rid of anything.

Because some day you will need it!!!!! Today I go to the tranny shop to pick up the newly rebuilt tranny and resealed transfer case. That went all perfectly fine. Then the shop owner and I begin to look over the axels I brought him for rebuilding. Thats when things went the wrong direction. Turns out the front axel housing is bent and the shop owner says it is not worth fixing. The front axel is a dana 44 closed knuckle for my 67 restoration project. If you new how many of these I sent to the scapyard!!! We always just threw these things away and put newer style disc fronts in them years back, and now I need one to put this truck back together stock these closed knuckle type were in 67-69 1/2 and 3/4 ton and have yet to find one around my area. I am going to try and hang on to everything from now on because some day!! JOHN
