Deal looks much better, screw those chuckleheads

Along the doohickey (believe Chicken had one for sale earlier in this thread), I'd say do the sub-frame bolts- either buy a kit online or source them from a local hardware store. Fastenal might have them in stock, also Ace Hardware etc. If you or your friend is near Gainesville swing by, we've been doing quite a bit of KLR wrenching lately and I expect that to continue this weekend. Also have a broke-ish bottom end that's great for explaining doohickeys and general target practice

I appreciate it, but I'm in Tucson AZ, now. I just keep spying on this thread.

Scam? Seems legit!

I bought a bridge from the same d00d last week. Here's a pic of the bridge...



The guy told me it's in California somewhere. I can't wait to go see it and put up a toll plaza!
