Needs work and street friendly tires. Groved the tires to make them better on slippery roads and made them a little quieter

The main thing I wanted different is cabinets for a base with casters then built the torsion boxes

Nicely done

You sure don't let any moss grow on you...


"Mostly painted and everything on the table fits in the table"

That is probably the best sentence anyone can say about a workspace. Just reach under, use it, put it away. I can only dream about that.

 

[Jo Diesel]

Thanks guys. Little more progress on the cabinets

Cabinets painted, drawers and shelves cleared and 3 drawers mounted. Last drawer is way tight. Will need clearancing with a belt sander

I meant to ask, how did you groove the Jeep tires? Nice cabinet work.

 

[Jo Diesel]

I have an Ideal tire grover that I have had for over 20 years

how big of a concrete base do you have under your crane?

 

[Jo Diesel]

Under crane is 6 inch reinforced with wire mesh. Nothing fancy. Is rated for 500 lb but
I have lifted 1200

Hey when you get yours done, feel free to come over and do the same at my place. :

 

[Jo Diesel]

He scored a 1941 Devilbis air compressor on Craigslist and is restoring it has a lot of copper and brass on it. Will be painted to match the cabinets

Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk

 

[Jo Diesel]

Blue cabinet over bench will get painted to match the lower ones and get moved to left end over where the air compressor is going

Tie rods Junk on my Dodge so I ordered a 1 ton TRE kit from Ruff Stuff

Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk

 

[Jo Diesel]

This is a builders kit. Had to cut and weld. Also needed to bend tie rod. Had to ream pitman arm and spindles

[Jo Diesel]

Came out fine. Hope it lasts longer than the OEM junk

Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk

 

[xtremek]

Why did you go with a builders kit, instead of a direct replacement. I get you didn't want an OEM (ok, only sort of), but is this that much beefier?

 

[Jo Diesel]

Have these on my Jeep and are really impressive and you can replace each end for a fraction of the price. The taper stud is 1/16 larger and the ball part is 1/4 larger. 1 Ton GM

My vehicle is a GMC 1 ton, so I guess I should be good.
