Default Ol pinion head hasn't posted in a while

Hope all is well. Enjoy reading his informative post. According to what i see, he hasn't posted since July which is unusual for him. Maybe just been busy.

Yes I have even emailed him multiple times (his PM box on here is full) as I need a pulley from his replaced -- nothing. Hope he is well!

I remember there's been times, I remember in the past where he had things going on that kept him away from here.

I pray it is same!!!

I have also spoke with him through text a few times recently. He is doing good but has had a lot going on from what I could tell.

I am happy to hear he is well. I was thinking about him and lack of posts the last 3-4 months. He is THE go to guy on anything and everything rear axle wise. His knowledge and accuracy is vast and appreciated. Enjoy all his posts.

Any way one can get Ol Pinionhead to get a hold of me? I have reached out to him on the board(inbox full) and thru emails to no avail since summer. I had gotten a water pump pulley from him that was bent and was hoping he could find me another one....

I also attempted to send Roger a PM the other day. Wrote my message and hit send. At that point I was told his PM box was full. Wish our system told us in advance that their PM box was full.
I am attempting to reach out to Roger about some 80-amp alternator brackets.

even if his PM box WASN'T full, no-one is getting PM notifications, (subscribed thread) post notifications, and now I suspect the emails aren't getting through.

I am guessing what ever went sideways, the email portion of the code for the site is goobered because it seems that NOTHING is getting out.
