Default Wrecked wrecker

Hi, everybody knows that I wrecked the wrecker, where can I find a R/F spring hanger and 4 NEW U bolts, nuts, washers (don't know if the 800 and the 54 series are the same for these, should be)

Any other things I need to look at (I will be changing out ALL the hanger mounting bolts on the other hangers and checking them for cracks)

Thank you all for the calls to the wife when the event took place, to just to check on me. STEEL SOLDIERS is the FINEST group of people that I have ever been associated with

You need to get it back together for next year Ron. We will help any way we can. I don't want to hear that crap about it being to far either, suck it up and drive it to the rally.
