    Let's see your toolbox.

    Measured out the available space in my shed and did some simple math. Drawers are like 24"X 54". Had Home Depot make all the cuts and assembled it in place. Slides came from Rockler. It's a tank. :beer:

    :bowdown::bowdown::bowdown:Devon, that is one heck of a box. Nothing too exciting has joined my collection other than a AT200D Blue Point 1/4" air ratchet with a Cornwell swivel.:rocker: ....and ya, 930 brakes are still waiting on one more part....3mm wheel spacers. LOL. Got the front...

    Yes, they are pressed on then welded into place. They can be machined off and raised to lower the front roll center, but my car is just a street car so though I've taken hundreds of pounds out of her, I've not gone to that extreme. I'm switching from Boge struts with Bilstein HD inserts, to...

    You and me both. It must be the camera's depth perception. It closes and opens fully. All three of them are nice and flush when closed. I'm not that bad with power tools.
