Swap meet? I wasn't aware there was one. That sounds cool. When and where is it? What do you guys do at the swap meet? I noticed you and gran pann live in DFW. I'm in the Rowlett area.

Well guys a lot of great ideas! I think after much piddling from reading all of your posts I have concluded that I in fact ordered a 4.5 inch brake band instead of a 4. Looks like I'm out $20 so I'm going to order a new one and I'll let you guys know how it goes. @Fabroman, you're right I...

Thats Okay I should have been more specific.

Well cool looks like you have some neat projects going. Not sure I've ever seen a grasshopper before.

Thanks! Hopefully you understood That I meant the Red Talon. I was saying those are hard to find parts for. Not the Manco. Either way I will look into the Link. Thanks again for the help, sounds like a large repository of parts.

Where could I have found a factory drive wheel Poboy?
