Re: Jeep CJ-7 driveshaft and clutch?
 

I suppose it is possible to get the driveshaft tied and centered, but
wow, if it lets go at speed....

He also will need new straps for the u-joint. They are cheap. A set of
straps and new bolts runs about $5.00.

Re: Jeep CJ-7 driveshaft and clutch?
 

There you go again, the little Psychopath, jealous, REALLY JEALOUS,
over the fact that I drive a '77 AMC Gremlin, ranting over my saggy
nutsack, possession charges, suckerbrain, womanliness, paunchy ex-
surfer punk body, Muslim family, and name.
What a jealous little draft dodging senile coward Bill O'Reilly
is, who belongs with me in the New Albany, Indiana asylum. I don't
have a DD214, I had to have served our country for that.
The only way I can get attention is to make a fool of myself,
with my goat obsession/fetish. When I was little, the other kids
laughed at my attempt to use fowel language in elementary school play
grounds. But I'm too senile to remember what I last wrote, like the
rest of Florida. I may remind you of a little rat dog, like a Mexican
Chihuahua with its senseless barking it's rabid head off, me too, me
too. I'm really too afraid to use my real name, address, or even sign
a statement as any man would, totally worthless!
Posted pornography at: news:

majority I know what ---- is when I see it! Because I've seen lots of
it. Hell, I'd even create it if I could get a girl to pose nude for
me.
You thought my attacks were just personal disagreements, but with
passing of my country's In depends Day, I realize these attacks are
stemming from my hate of God and America, and that's why I wear the
American flag as a diaper, but I'm just too cowardly to be a
---------.
People ask me all the time, when are you going to take
responsibility for yourself, and become a man?????????? I tell them,
Never!!!!!!!!!!!
Forwarded to: alt.binaries.pictures.autos,

a**hole I really am, a spoiled ass hat!!!!!
I'm a LIAR and never been in the Service much less Vietnam, as I
suggested!!!!! If you think I'm a Psycho, you're right. My
psychiatrist even says so!!!!
I'm just really curious as to who you think will believe me over
any man responsible enough to list his name and address here and in
every place I know of????? I've got you all fooled. All I can do is
lie, as most everything I have said contradicts it's self.
You know what they say, once a ------ coward, always a ------
coward. I can't help myself!!!!!!!

I'm not fooling anyone, you all know I'm a ------! I need to get
back in the hospital
before I hurt myself or someone else again. I know I need to been
locked in a rubber room, laced in a straight jacket. Time for lights
out at my insane asylum again.
Fortunately it is against the law for me to own a firearm.
Here I go again with that psychopathic goat obsession/fetish, that
only faggots like would think of. That's what I've said, it's common
knowledge I'm a schizophrenic ------.
