What's on your Work Bench?

Yes I can get you a pair heading your way for $10 plus the ride. How does that sound ?
 
Sounds good, you still have my info? Let me know the amount and I'll get it going. Thanks.
 
Maybe you could get something like this to fill the gap with some trimming, a heat gun and some black paint. A plastic floor/wall/ceiling plate in 2" is 2 3/8" ID. http://www.mcmaster.com/#escutcheon-plates/=11l9t2w


That's a interesting thought. Sounds like a job for jerseyjeeps. Eric do you have 2 of these plastic covers. Maybe I can cut one so it sits inside the main cover. May need 2 in case of screw up. Eric if you can pm me Thanks Guys for the idea.

Got to love salt....

Salt really got that perch, hows the other perch?
The other one was fine.. but that side was so bad the axle twisted everytime it moved. Another note on those 2 purchs . The po installed new spings and installed a large headed spring center bolt. So it never seated in the hole and was just floating on the pads. I forgot to take a picture of that and could of used it as a fail post. Lol

Not on my bench, but laying on my back I was 6 for 6 this morning on the studs, not a bad way to start off April. They are now on their way to someone else's scrambler project. :bacon:

I have the same small oxy/acet set and use a small welding tip. Worth their weight in gold when taking the rusty nuts and bolts apart.
 
I could only save 2 tbolts off of mine.. great work

I need a pair of these if anyone has them in reusable shape.
 
I had several of the studs break. So I center drilled and tapped the standoff to fix it.

Yes I should be at both. Definitely PA Jeeps. The trick is getting the little nuts nice and hot just before they get super red, drop torch or hand to an assistant and grab the socket/ratchet wrench. Disclaimer tho, it's better to just break the studs on a jeep that you care about the paint on, cause it does burn the paint a bit.
 
I actually enjoy all that kind of detail work. I just can't wait until I'm doing it on mine! It amazes me how fast other things get in the way of my Jeep build!

Don't I know it. Angry with myself that my frame swap has taken so long. I picked up the frame last April. So it has been a year. It took the frame breaking for me to really start it in September. Ugh.
 
I love doing it, but I do have an 80 CJ7 I have sitting int he driveway that needs to be torn down, a mess of parts to ship out and like 4 cord of wood to split/stack... just procrasinating

Dain, I thought your frame swap progressed well! My rebuild has been going on for 4 years now!!!
