    Tube showed up today, so much better looking now. Here you can see the old tube removed and laying along side the new installed tube. Second picture shows the lip on the old one, with about a third of it gone, there is a crack (Not seen) that runs along half of the remaining lip.

    Amazing what kind of "facelift" a single part can cause. Very nice.
    Now just secure the appropriate screws with blue loctite to avoid the "shoot itself loose" issue, and she's got a new lease on life.

    Congrats! And thanks for the updates and pictures.

    Already done, she'll be good to go for a while longer. 44 years old and she still has a lot of life left in her.

    I know about that place, got a part from him before. But he's not answering emails, I sent 3 emails over the last few months asking about the tube and never received an answer.

    I wonder if he's still active or not......


    Hoping only the best in this case, but I have seen web sites living on long after the web site owner..
