While installing a new one,i found the pilot bearing had never been installed on the old resto. Luckily had a friend who found me a good Muncie Rockcrusher and on the road again. Whew! how could someone forget to put the pilot bearing in ? Anyway,good to be back on the road .

Sounds like that was a rough ride, fun maybe, but rough.

Glad you got your car back on the road, just sad that it was an unexpected expense because of a broken part.
