I trust this brand a lot. One of those stands was able to hold my 80 up. So if they are rated 2000lb each, they are good.

Finally got around to swapping out my o2 sensors with densos.. The ones on it might as well been original, nuts were super rounded and needed extractors on all 4. Idles great and runs way better now and no cel
Started riding the shortbus.
Got the electric impact wrench from HF.
Works like a charm now.
All I need is a pair of 12 Ton jack stands, cause 3 or 6 is for Heep owners.
Go big or go home.

I've had my 12tons for about 12 years now, they've proved their worth many times over. One of those things I'll never go without.
I had a little uneventful incident yesterday as I took the 2 ton stands out, I tried to lower the jack just a little in order to put the tire back on.
Got it where I wanted and got up to get the tire. At that moment the car started to go down slowly. Of course I did not panic but the blisters on my palms prove otherwise, how hard I squeezed the hydraulic jack's handle to lock it tight.
The car stopped about 3 inches between the disk brake and the garage floor.
Today I just kept asking myself where the hell I got those blisters from. I have a thing about not wearing gloves. I just realized where I got them from as I type this post.
And no Joey I didn't get them because I lubed the shafts again.

Threw the new canoe on top of the 93. It would've been a lot cooler on top of my rack but didn't want to put the rack on until I fill the factory rack holes and paint the roof.
So, tonight I started filling the factory rack holes and will grind and paint tomorrow.
This is after dumping ourselves in the lake. Canoe didn't flip. None of our stuff fell out. I just tripped. Haha.
My son likes running the trolling motor.
Good day of fishing. Good day with my son.

I finally dried out my LC after a freak storm came through and dumped about 4-5 inches of rain. Sunroof and all windows were open. The center cup holder/storage was over flowing...what a mess!
@Dragos80
How do you like that HF Impact Wrench? Is it the battery or corded model (Item Number?)? I'd like to get one from HF, but the reviews made me hesitate. A quick review would help me decide. Tanks!

Installed OME 2851's up front and ManFre spacers in the rear, broke down and bought a torque wrench for the lower oil pan...lol
Finally joined the Fox 2.0 club. hah. Used the Fox flat mount brackets for both front and rear mounting. I hadn't noticed anyone else using them here on MUD. They made installation very easy with the reservoirs.
Oh also got my YodaTeq bottle opener:

A word of warning, my HF electric impact only lasted about 4 uses before it died. I have since read that you need to lubricate them before use because the factory lube is insufficient. Using air tools now
Took the family camping. Went to deep creek in arrowhead where my boys could do some cliff jumping. Good family trip, never possible in a jeep.
God I wish my red paint still looked that good. My fav color cruiser second to good ole white.
"Fixed" the oil pressure sender by:
Buying replacement unit from Toyota.
Buying beer and ice.
Jacking up truck.
Crawling under truck.
Plugging wire back into current one.
Also got a steering wheel cover to hold me over until I redo leather.

Filling holes. Prepping for painting.
I filled these last night. Prior to torrential rains. No leaks! Woohoo!
Filling the rest today. And painting. And going fishing as soon as done!
Will take the 92 fishing. Since it never had a stupid factory roof rack.

It's the corded one. $39.99 with coupon. I've seen it as low as $37.99 when they have some special going on. Their item number changes all the time so, it's irrelevant. You will always have bad reviews on anything and bad products tom time to time too.
For the price one cannot complain too much.
Regular price is $49.99 and if you apply their 20% coupon which can be found everywhere, you get to the same $39.99 price.

There is a thread here under "Tools and...." about HF, which contains a lot of coupons and ongoing deals.

I know air impact wrenches have to be oiled with every use.
But how do you lubricate the electric one?
