    Hey Jo....let me look into it....I think we can do it.....of course we can't do the wrenching, but maybe you could pay them to remove it?
    If they can get it out and it's good, I can get it shipped or we'll figure something out to get it to you.

    Hey Jo,

    I'm planning on being in SD 7/15 - 7/16. Maybe if you can get the parts to Vegas and are willing to pay for a one way U-haul trailer ride (approx $50 to rent the trailer) I can bring it with me? I'm not worried about strain on the VX as the trailer would be practically empty.

    Just trying to help ya out anyway I can! I'd hate to see you pay $$$$ for shipping if you don't have to.

    The 3rds are small enough to fit in the back of the VX so you shouldn't have to rent a uhaul.

    Gotta love the Forum, always someone willing to help. Way to go Sue & Nova!!!

    ...and I hope you get the gears Jo.

    I emailed Jo yesterday. I might be able to go by there tomorrow or Saturday morning. I don't know about pulling the part, but I can try!

    Whoever ends up doing this, I will make it worth your while as well.

    I'd be interested in the black dash if these parts are in good shape (no cracks or chips in the black material) I will pay the yard whatever they charge for it, plus give $100 to whoever can pick it up and ship it to me. This is the last piece of the puzzle for my black interior swap into my 91 Trooper.

    PM me if interested in a little work for some extra cash.

    OK!!..thanks for all the offers!

    The yard is going to get back to me today, hopefully they will pull the 3rd..
    ...and if so, I'll try and get them to strip it down and just ship the bits I need.

    Sue..THANKS...lets see what the yard can do first

    Kirk..THANKS.. Ditto the above!

    Nova..THANKS..As explained by Jon (vxorado), no trailer required

    Bart..I'll talk to them about the Dash when they call me, and call you if its good.

    Fingers crossed, and MANY thanks for all the offers.

    If its a gen-u-ine 4.77........

    10-4

    We may be able to do this as a relay ....
    I would pick it up in PHX, (and Bart's dash too), then meet up with you Nova in Seligman, pass the 3rd to you for your trip to San Diego.

    Let us know how much they charge you for the thirds. Be interesting to know an approximate going rate.

    Here's a couple of Historical values :-

    Pair of 4.77 3rds...no lockers...$850

    Pair of 4.77 3rds..Aussie Lockers in both.....$1350


    Note..these were basically plug and play..ready to go...
    ....so not scrap yard prices.

    Most scrap yards will sell thirds for about $80 each. Ask me how I know.

    OK dumb question. Since 4.77 are soo hard to come by could you not get one and have a shop make duplicates? I will be in the market for 4.77s and wondering if this is a viable option in the future. That is if I ever get my hands on a 4.77
