You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.
I can't see the forest for the trees.

Thanks, Geno I have some Woodruff keys on order I am supposed to get a call to let me know they are ready for pick-up may be a week, though. I have to get the one tire that leaks, unmounted to get it rewelded and refinished then remount it, I also have to mount the other two ags to the other two wheels. Can't wait!

Woodruff keys arrived, ordered 8 so I now have an extra set. These appear to be the same as the ones for the 953, 1054(A) GT-14 and 18 Automatics. I am hoping to get the 2 hubs that I will be using on the outside off of the axles that they are currently on. Thinking of having a go at soaking in some Acetone/ATF 50-50 mix, for a while, then having neighbor press them out. Will have to wait and see.
