Ok, I can't sell them to the wife as welding practice. :mad: I have a 94 bronco with some really tired rear leaf springs, I may want to add a leaf or two to the packs. I need the weight in the back of my 2WD Dakota for the 500mi trip home. and I really like the body spoon idea. Not to mention I...

Someone very nicely abandoned 2 large leaf spring packs from a truck in our work parking lot. Are they worth picking up? I am getting a welder for Christmas and they might make nice practice material. Not to mention the weight would be nice in the back of my truck for my trip home. (snow)

I have one, picked it up for $800 about 5 years ago. Minor damage to the table. Nothing I can't work around. Let me know if you have any questions. I did just now learn that the head tilt gear is aluminum.:thumbup:

Windex, not windshield washing fluid. :lol_hitti All the interwebs research I did used Windex. Thin the paint to the consistancy of milk. Painted an entire room 10X12 this way through the "Cheap" HF spray gun. Worked awesome. NO color diffrence from the teenie amount of dye.

Possibly used to tighten down those massive ratchet straps for securing loads?:confused:

Maybe it is the angle I am looking at it, but if you picked it up wouldn't half of the pliers just slide out of the bottom?:headscrat

Those work well but I feel they are only good for a few pins, if you know what you are doing. When I think extractor tool I am along these lines...

I agree, I am Air impacts just because I have a nice compressor, if I were to buy from scratch now.... Probably Cordless.:dunno:

LOL, now we are getting into pin extraction tools...$$$.

That will work, seems a little pricy to me for what you get. I could hand build something that dose the same thing for less than $20.:dunno:

Not a $10 soldering iron, but this is my go to for everything I need to solder. I like it because I can use it anywhere, very handy for automotive use. Solder, heat shrink, small torch for big soldering jobs...

Pins like that are common at electronic stores, frys, radioshack, possibly best buy. I troubleshoot alot of connectors like that for the NAVY, I have several sets of "home made" multimeter test leads. I cut the probe ends off of a cheap set of leads and solder the correct female pins directly to...

I'm cheap too.:o I use Ammo Boxes. Metal, Sturdy, Stackable, and most of the time (for me), Free!:D
