Had to replace the evaporator in my old 99 Ram truck. The whole dash had to come out as one piece. That was $700 at that time.

That's why I'm not getting rid of my Power Wagon. No off-road nannies to piss you off.

I have almost every set gearwrench makes. Kinda sad but I’m not ashamed I’m proud of them.

I have a very large Snap-on box that's running pretty full. It's mostly Snap-on and Craftsman wrenches, with the oddball Chinese (Harbor Freight) junk that someone gave to me. My dad hit me the other day with the 'why do you still have that box? You don't work on cars anymore. You should sell it." :icon14::icon14:

I said, I still have it for the same reason you still have all your tools.... I still do some stuff and the plan was always to give them to my boys. ;)

Have a Snap On box, Craftsman box, 2 smaller Craftsman boxes, and 2 who knows what boxes. All full. Plus a box full of bicycle tools.

I have a masterforce (Menards brand) box and it does its job well holding tools. I really wouldnt mind finding a nice krinkle brown Kennedy box, must be the machinist in me lol. If I ever win the lottery I want a wall of Lista cabinets.

Don't get any closer. It might rub off.

Was he trying to go for the Monster logo on the hood, but forgot what an M looks like?

These rear mid-links are hefty. Beat a grizzly bear to death with one of 'em-type of hefty. I'm damn glad I decided to suck it up and pay the $$$ for top-quality parts like SPL.

To anyone on the fence about the cost, I say: Get off the fence! Child support? Those damn leeches need to get a job anyways. Mortgage? The bank will totally understand when you miss a payment (or three). 401(k) contribution? The stock market will tank as soon as you make retirement. And even if it doesn't, they'll probably end up carrying you out of your office feet-first, anyways.

Life is short - buy SPL.

Some thunderstorms just starting to get here. Suppose to rain like a mofo tonight.

TL;DR
It's only money, you'll make more.
