| Where have you posted them. I find it easier to just use photo bucket, I use a few forums, its easier having them in one place. There should be a link under the image, wherever its been uploaded to, which starts with '[ IMG ]' and ends with '[ /IMG ]'
Just copy that into the post, and it should show up. | |

|  side of my mower, it doesnt look like this anymore since this pic was taken i have put the motor back on and took it for a small ride  this is the reason i got it for free, bad tranny, i have replaced it with another peerless  homemade spindle extension kit, thanks for the idea fearless front  hood of the craftsman sitting on my tiny ass murray rear engine rider, that will later on have 4 normal front tires all the way around.  this is whats left of the rim that i cut off of the peerless i put in it  |

| thats just a rim, i cut it in half at the seam and then cut the other part around the shaft, then took the portable ban saw to what was left stuck to the tranny. and yea they did work  |
