I was thinking of picking up some old sheet metal tools, There is an auction coming up I believe. Otherwise I am fairly good with a hammer. I can likely make a clean enough lip with just some wood and a good hammer or three. I also have an anvil and forming stakes. No brake though. That is what I was hoping to get at the upcoming action. But no truck, no auction.

Found my 2ed Gen Monty front end. And a Starion Differential. I want to order them tomorrow. Going to start searching to figure out what little bits and pieces I need for the mods. Then put together my Urethane list. I will also need to decide on shocks.

Can anyone tell me if I can convert the Auto hubs that the Monty has, to manual lockout? Can I just use 1st gen? Or are there 2ed gen lockouts to be had?

Thank you all again for your time and effort on this forum. I feel I started off in a very ignorant place, and after many hours of reading, I now know I still am still there.

I appreciate your patience and interest in getting others back on the road.
