    Diff Bearing Set-Up Tip.

    Differential set-up quick tip! Don't throw away those old carrier and pinion bearings! Clean them up, then open up the inside with a Dremel tool. Go slow and use a pinion and carrier for test fitting. The goal is to slowly open up the bearing so it slips onto (with a little friction) the pinion...

    Vintage Snap On tool boxes

    Jackie Gleason said " A man must defend his home, his wife, his children and his martini." I'd like to add his toolbox. I use one of my dad's old Snap On boxes and recently I've been having H E double hockey sticks with 2 of the drawers. After going full blown Sherlock on the web I found 2...

    What axle tool do I need?

    Anyone out there have any idea what tool, specifically, I need to unscrew this axle “bolt”? (See photo.) The tools called out in the service manual don’t seem to be the correct ones. Maybe I’ve got a non-stock axle? It seems like there should definitely be something out there for this...I just...

    CJ7 and OTC 8031 ball joint tool

    I am curious if anyone out there has used the OTC 8031 Ball Joint Tool Truck/Jeep to remove/install ball joints on a Dana 30 for a CJ7? I have the tool (very nice set btw!) but had a hell of a time figuring out what to use to remove the lower ball joints. Inside the case there is an adapter...

    Does your community have a tool library?

    So I was driving around neighborhoods close to my house, but not near any business I frequent when I looked up and saw a Tool Library! https://neseattle.myturn.com/library/inventory/browse?category=Automotive%7C111 The main website is here: https://neseattle.myturn.com/library/ I...

    Frame measuring tool

    Before I invested in a tram gauge, I still needed a way to check frames and body parts for squareness. I came up with a simple, but effective way to do this. I found that using a tape measure was prone to error since frames and body parts are not perfectly flat. The tape measure would inevitably...

    4.2L Oil Pump Priming Tool

    Help! My 7 has been sitting for a long time, and I want to prime the oil pump with a drill before I start the engine again. Any idea if any of the priming tools out there will engage with the 4.2's oil pump shaft? Which one do I need? Thanks much!

    My new favorite tool!

    Well maybe not my very favorite. It would have to go a very long way to beat the MIG or the Angle Grinder. Both have paid for themselves many times over. But, for jobs that neither can accomplish my new tool that isn't actually new to me at all is right up there with the both of them. I've...

    Favorite tool?

    The Snap on guy came to my shop the other day. (Which I hate because I want to buy all kinds of tools but don't have the funds ) anyways bought a digital bore scope and a few other things I can't wait to use. Got me thinking what's my favorite well I really don't know.

    $1 Proportioning Valve Tool

    Being the frugal person I am (some might say cheap) I couldn't pay the high prices some folks wanted for a simple tool like the proportioning valve tool needed to bleed my brakes. I looked at all the images online and said to my self, I can make one of those. I found a "U" clip at the hardware...

    Tool for pulling the cap of the front hub

    I could not find anything useful for pulling the cap. I do not want to use screwdriver and hammer to avoid damage... Anyone a suggestion? Thanks

    Must have shop tool

    This is a great shop tool I made about 8 years ago. A friend of mine made one, then he got me the air cylinder, and I made one for myself. Since then, a few other friends made theirs. It has crushed a lot of cans over the years. Mine wont handle tall boys unless you twist it alittle. I keep a...

    The right tool .... Mig Welder

    For a few reasons I am thankful for starting on The Witch project. Namely tools! For years I struggled with not the right tool. The Witch demanded that I would not struggle for no reason again. First came the 4.5" angle grinder, exactly how does an active man get along without an angle...

    The Ultimate Tool

    I just bought a Millermatic 211 MIG Welder. I have a floor drill press, an air compressor and impact wrenches. I love tools but I think a welder is the ultimate tool. I can't think of any tool as versatile and useful. It can repair things made of steel. You can also fabricate things from scrap...

    The internet is an amazing tool for info, but........

    I had another reminder to take everything you read on the net with a grain of salt recently. Shirley just purchased a 2001 Cherokee Limited with only 77,000 miles. It runs great other than it's hard to start. You have to cycle the key several times before cranking it to get it to fire up. I...
