I've never posted a picture before so I hope these come in. When I got the 77 it wouldn't start, some of the new gasket maker sealing the boots fixed that at least temporarily. Then the fuel started leaking and I didn't get a long enough time slot, or bravery to tackle that. So I started on the front suspension, both shocks blown, wheel bearings straw colored and the grease looked like a hard black mud. Long term neglect I would call it. Using a 3/8" bolt with heavy washers to pull in the front bushing was fast, it took a large socket about 1-1/16" to get the last 1/4". Also rebuilt the calipers. This sure is a lot easier than on my F250 Powerstroke. We then left for Mexico as it is getting cold and I'm semi retired. Had to throw in the picture of the Bus chassis driving down the interstate type road. It is probably a Mercedes from their plant in San Luis Potosi heading south to somewhere. There were 5 altogether getting down the road at 60mph. The drivers all had helmets with wind screens.

Close, since you're using photobucket a really neat feature of it is the 4 different ways to share your photos when you're viewing a single photo.
go into your album and click on one of the photos then just click on the line after IMG code and it will automatically copy, come back to this screen hit ctrl-v or right click and paste and bam you get this.
I'll let you try the rest. _________________ Melanie - 1980 931

I'm going to try to post these pics again. Yesterday went over to the Mexican bicentennial Expo near Guanajuato. Do not try to bring a 924 down here, they will not clear the topes(speed bumps).

Well that barely worked.

I think should be all four of them. _________________ Mike
