I ordered a Sharpe 880A air control unit from Amazon expecting a high quality product made in America. The Sharpe web site says: http://www.sharpe1.com/sharpe/sharpe.nsf/Page/About+Us When it arrived, I was disappointed to see this on the box and product: So... WWGJD? What would garage...

An alternative... I used a spark plug non-fouler from the Help! section of the parts store for my O2 sensor bung. Just cut off the long part to leave the threads.

Craftsman Thread Restorer set (I used to just use taps - the horror!) Harbor Freight Hanson-style Socket Racks Pry bars with the metal cap ...there's got to be more... will keep thinking... Edit: Some more... Extra long 1/2 extension - at least 20 inches I think Offset double box end wrenches

Is there any particular reason that a MIG welder wouldn't work for you? TIG equipment is expensive, as you noticed, and difficult to learn.

Don't forget the MacGyver kit: duct tape, zip ties, hose clamps...

SUCCESS! We ended up pulling the passenger side and making a tool like the snap-on one posted earlier. We made it long enough that it went all the way outside of the wheel well so I could really get some good hits with the hammer. The problem was the oversized circlip on the aftermarket half...

Time for an update... its still not out of the car! We tried prying from the top & bottom together, tapping with a punch and hammer, and pulling with a slide hammer. Unfortunately we didn't have a good way of attaching the slide hammer so we rigged up some seat belt webbing, but we couldn't...

I'm amazed by how quickly this forum comes together with ideas! Thank you! Yes, mine is an aftermarket reman unit, and apparently some of those have larger clips than the OEM ones. It was difficult to push in, but this is impossible to pull out! I tried a puller like pictured above, but I...

I can't get the CV Axle out of the driver's side on my 95 mazda 626. I changed it out to a "Fenco" aftermarket one a few weeks ago, but forgot to do the seal... of course its leaking gear oil now. What I expected to be an easy job has turned into a nightmare. I cannot get this axle out of the...

How does it work? :confused:

Check EBay for bumper covers. BTDT.

Great news, thanks for the update!!!

http://hudsonvalley.craigslist.org/tls/2246318689.html I'm being seriously tempted by this. I don't need it, per se, but it just looks so nice! So, what is it? I'm expecting friction slides and a gas shock lid, maybe from the early 90's? Is it worth his asking price?

You could always try. Invest $44 and your time in another bench, paint it and put it on CL. Test the waters, so to speak. You'll find out pretty quickly what the market is like. Good luck!!

How many bags of sand would you need to put in the bonnet to move the 50/50 line to the middle?

Forstner bit maybe? http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001NXC6V4/?tag=atomicindus08-20

I agree Sears is a lost cause. The more interesting question, at least to me, is what channel will the new SK choose to sell their products? Online / Amazon, trucks, Home Depot, Ace hardware, The Zone...??

Hmm, I can't seem to make code Nutcracker work. Any tips Stuey? I'm looking at some pry bars and "handi-cutters"... Total is $80, but the site says the code is not applicable. :(

So what kind of car is #77?

Ideally, you'd plot your course (of walking) ahead of time and compute the require number of steps to reach your destination. At periodic intervals, stop and swap the tool bags between hands. You will end up with a zig-zag maneuver when executed properly. Don't forget to compensate for the...
