Thanks for that advice. I'll try vice grips first and weld them if need be.

The northern tool version I got did not have a rubber pad, hmm. But it has proven to be a very good jack for the money.

I was going to use LMC truck for most of it, unless someone objects, because they are located very close to me.

I just picked up an Arcan jack from Nothern Tool and it's built like a tank. 3.5 Ton cap with low enough profile to get under small cars and good lift height for larger vehicles.

Having just had some fairly nasty bacon for breakfast I'm starting to see how all this links together.

I do have another question though. Since I don't need this truck up and running really soon I was going to pull the bed off to give myself more space to work and allow me a better vantage point to inspect/clean/paint everything. However, the first carriage bolt I went to remove spun in the...

Thanks for the advice guys. Unfortunately my cost is a bit higher due to needing new leaf springs. Looks like I get to buy a 4" grinder, hehe.

So I lost a section of my left side leaf spring on my 1994 F-150 and in looking at everything it looks like the hangers and bushings are rusted through. Is it worth trying to jack with getting the hangers off the frame using the hardware or will drilling out the old bolts damage the frame? I'm...

Not a bad idea. Looks like some beefy casters for it.

I can't wait to see how everything turns out. Hopefully I'll be posting up pics of my new to me garage project soon.

When you leave the lights on in the garage overnight and notice it on your electric bill. You decide that you and your wife need to communicate via two way radio so you can screen her interruptions.

Now you can start your tool addiction with the rest of us.

It might work out to your advantage since the room is already finished. Could turn out to be a pretty **** garage....pics please.

Good steal. Looks like now you'll be able to do a bunch of extra projects you couldn't do before. Welcome to the board.

CaptainSlow, with almost all corporate stores you just have to stay put until they make you happy. That being said I'd just file a complaint about it and you'll more than likely get a response that you'll like. I'm not saying it's good to be mean to those in customer service because I've dealt...

Wow. I'll have to try and get a racedeck and garagetrac sample. Says on the website they won't give them out anymore.

Very nice layout. I like the color scheme. I'm looking at putting Racedeck in when I get the new to me garage here pretty soon. Too bad they don't give out samples anymore.

Somebody has to say it, you ****. Good score.

Somebody has to say it. The people of garage journal could make a much better show. I've seen way more amazing garages that I'll never own here, lol. Might not be a bad idea to start a youtube channel...

I vote leatherman or spyderco endura. Almost anyone can make good use out of a leatherman and spyderco has some pretty cool stamping options.
