    In the past, I've shipped oversized stuff Greyhound - like when I shipped a Volvo hood from here in Sac to Florida. It's pretty cheap, compared to UPS or FedEx 'oversized' pricing. Just gotta go to the bus station to drop it off/pick it up.

    So I used this in my 93, which I could actually squeeze though and get into the bed. That is beyond impossible with the 2nd gen, and I don't have a dog, so I really have no need for it.



    Each of the two "rings" is a flexible spring collar that can be deformed to insert through the back of the cab window and through the cap front window. So one collar inside the back of the cab, and one collar inside the cap. The rest of it conforms well to whatever opening it is put through. It is a tough rubberized/vinyl type of material.


    Easy to stow flat.

    Still got your number but will be doing the lake Hawley runs for the next two weekend. Not sure what time I'll be getting back on those sundays, but if theres a time that works for you on a sunday and I can make it, that'd be awesome

    Those look great, but the reviews have me worried. A lot of people saying the threading stripped and broke apart while in use. I'm sketched out enough using the ones I have, think I just need to save up for a heavy duty mounted compressor at some point.

    you're only going to use them once then sell them for retail anyway. Just use what you have.

    True, but he lives an hour away and I do 90% of my wrenching after 9 PM at night. I would want it more for fine tuning and rebuilding. Just a pipe dream tool to have.

    Not tools, I keep those.

    Autozone will loan them out free. But I bought a set of the McPherson because you just never know when you’ll need them. And I’ll am idiot.
