Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

bought those sockets, and another pair of prothanes. gonna hold off on air bumps for now and make sure everything else is working right before i start going crazy.
 
Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

nice. I love my gearwrench thru ratchet sets. I got craftsman sockets but I'm probably going to be ordering a couple gearwrench ratchets sooner than later. The craftsman sockets are fine but the ratchets themselves are "meh" at best.
 
Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

lol

what say you guys about PS pumps? since my stock one was whining and i cracked the resi i figure i might as well but something more worthwhile in there in prep for assist. should i just get a basic saginaw pump and get a remote resi?

polyperformance sells a bracket to run a chevy p series pump on a 4.0 liter. if i ever need another pump in any xj i own i would do that.

Tonight is a good night. Gin and tonic, new top gear, and a 1/2 buff chix and 1/2 bbq chix pizza.

Yeah, I had a husky that was pretty nice, but I think I preferred my stanley ratchet over the craftsman ones I have now or even over the husky I used. Idk if the newer stanley stuff sucks (or if I just got lucky and got a real good one) but that ratchet took an unbelievable beating for 4 or 5 years before it finally died with dignity with me throwing my 250lbs of weight onto a 4' length of tube as a cheater bar on it. :roflmao:

come to think of it I still have my husky somewhere, I should dig that out and toss it in my craftsman box... I think it was in my shitty tool box that got dumped out in the back seat of the Jeep so it should be back there somewhere... unless it fell out

I finished the assembling the 60. Got the PS shaft all clearanced up and the entire PS outer all done. Just as I'm tightening the flanges on, I remembered I forgot to torque the spindle nuts down. :doh:

I cant get the slugs back out. Theyre brandy new and tight, I dont have any bolts to use to get my puller in there. I also gotta pull the DS apart to clearance the inner shaft more. I called it a night.

I'd debate that. I use Craftsman sockets and wrenches everyday at work, and I'm not nice to them. I think I've only broken one or two in over two years. The ratchets are junk though, I'll never use one again, I busted too many knuckles when they skipped teeth. Snap-On is the way to go for ratchets, they may be expensive but they're worth every penny.

so 40 for a bracket, 40 for a pulley, 25 for a new belt, and how much for a pump? already 100 deep without even buying that.
