The SD33T is coming complete with all the cables, hoses, a/c compressor, ps pump and brackets and so on... but wait, there's more... he's got relatives up here and will deliver it AFTER my daughter's wedding in August... gives him more time to get it out of his Scout... I'll drive down to meet him part way... Looks like I will need that flex plate from SoCal and will need to get my TF727 together with the correct tail shaft, torque converter and housing for my NP208. :) (unless someone has some of those parts we can fedex ground or pick up somewhere in the PNW...) He also mentioned some of the Binder events as a way of selling off my T19/D300 and some of the other pieces I won't need... Looks like the Binder gatherings are a good place to get stuff for SD33/SD33Ts as well... Superdawg should be together here in a few weeks with the 4.2/T5/np208 and working a/c, which I really need right now... heat wave in Seattle and I'm fighting allergies big time... back on antibiotics and a whole pile of new allergy meds from the allergist... starting to feel a little better... since we're having a real summer I suspect we'll have a pretty serious winter, so having functional jeeps here will be very important... :) john ----- - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Snohomish, Washington -o|||||o- where Jeeps don't rust, they mold http://AMSOIL.com/redirect.cgi?zo=283461 http://creationwiki.org http://johnmeister.com http://wagoneers.com http://fotomeister.us - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 29 Jul 2009 16:50:52 -0700 (PDT) From: john Subject: [db] OT: new record 103F in Seattle! 103F!!! in SEATTLE!!!! -- It's a day for the weather history books. For on July 29, 2009, Sea-Tac Airport hit 103 degrees just after 3:30 p.m. for the hottest day on record in Seattle, with records stretching back to 1891. The previous records were 100 degrees set July 20, 1994, July 16, 1941, and June 9, 1955*. http://www.komonews.com/news/51988007.html Around 3pm it was 102F in Snohomish... but it's ok... (yeah right) it's a dry heat... :) what's funny is I was looking at the temps elsewhere in the country... amazing... our normal summer temps are usually in the low '70s... We also set a record for the HIGHEST low temp ever... 71 deg F... in all recorded history here our highest low temp has never been over 70 deg F... it always cools off at night here... Humidity is around 20% too... a friend came up from San Diego, he got off the plane and said it felt like Vegas here. :) at lunch the temperature on the WJ console said 100 deg F at 1pm here in Everett... not driving the 300D because the a/c leaked down... and I ain't driving my cj-10a w/o ac. :) john ----- - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Snohomish, Washington -o|||||o- where Jeeps don't rust, they mold http://AMSOIL.com/redirect.cgi?zo=283461 http://creationwiki.org http://johnmeister.com http://wagoneers.com http://fotomeister.us - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------ End of diesel-benz-digest V1 #3119 **********************************
