Yeah, not really something I would have done. I had planned on removing them but we'll see what happens when I get it.

Haha good eye!

Man, you're good, I think you're right! Thanks! Are these decent boxes? I was actually in the process of trying to purchase a box when this fell into my lap. I'm definitely going to hang on to it as it has sentimental value. Are they worth the time and effort for a restoration?

This might be a long shot given the limited pictures and information I have but I thought I'd see if anyone recognized what roller cab this is. It turns out that my Uncle ended up with it after my Grandpa passed away and now he would like me to have it. My uncle will keep the top box so I'd like...

This is great advice! Rules 1 and 3 also apply to chainsaws, nothing like getting a chainsaw back after it been run into the ground or filled with straight gas!

Anybody ever buy a reconditioned jack from Pedersen's Hydraulic Jack's? I've only seen one review, and it definitely wasn't great.

Haha yeah, those are pretty sturdy wheels by the looks of them, I'm not sure how they could possibly have been dented, people are capable of amazing thing though it seems.

I kind of figured the prices were high. The Hein Werner is being sold by a guy who sells used stuff, he has no idea what it is and seemed fairly firm on price, I haven't contacted the other guy about the Walker, partly because Im not sure I could get him down to a fair price. Do you guys have an...

I personally use the Milwaukee M18 stuff and most of my tools have been relatively trouble free. The sawzall died on me for whatever reason and it had very little use, like three cuts max, my drill trigger acts up on occasion and I've had one battery just die out of the blue. I'm just going to...

Hey everyone! First post here after alot of lurking, lots of great info here! Anyways, I'm in the market for a larger jack for my diesel pick up and I'm finding that alot of the new jacks on the market are of pretty poor quality, even if you spend a little more money. I've pretty well decided...
