Still out at corporate

 

Are they teaching you the proper way to reuse non-reusable parts during warranty work?

 

Totally!

 

I wonder if this guy has his concealed camber permit

 

@Speedytech7 did you happen to look into that bushing kit we were talking about for the 4runner?

 

Sorry I meant to post that haha

1.5 ton seems tiny... my low profile floor jack (for when I work on ricers) is 3 tons.

Or I just buy overkill tools, that's also very possible

 

3k lbs is more than the front half of these trucks

But yes my 3 ton lp jack is the go to for the garage but the 1.5 ton aluminum jack stays in the Camry and when I get a little more dough I'll put another in the 4 banger 4 runner

The harbor freight lp jack lifts higher than the regular one so it's a win win

 

They've got a big name for off-road shit, but honestly it's just an overpriced light duty jack with some wagon wheels on it. You could build a better jack out of a HF cheapo and some round tube.

 

Yesssssssss

 

@eon_blue

This seasons much better than the last one IMO

 

Ok update, CV axle didn't come out it separated. So after some texts and a phone call with @eon_blue and @Kwikvette

But it's drivable now. The bolts for the lbj's where going to round off. So I'm going to send it to the shop to get the new CV installed.

 

Yeah, thought the concept was pretty cool

 

I was going to say this but figured someone was going to give me shit for it

 

Honestly if I ever taught a marketing class I'd use them as an example. They're experts, they invented a problem, created a cheap but easily spotted copy of an existing product, then marketed it as a professional/boutique brand. And all it is, is a basic cheapo aluminum jack with some accessories and large plastic wheels. And they sell this average piece of crap for a premium!

 

You think I didn't realize that, the 3 bolts that hold the hydraulic cylinder are the same ones in the same orientation as my 1.5 ton hf jack

Same shit for headight retrofit dudes I ain't paying them 200 dollars to pop a fucking projector into a headlight that I can do myself to the headlight I already have

 

I was ranting with you, not at you. I'd happily shake the hand of the owner of proeagle while spitting in his face. He's a genius and his product is a complete waste of money, I appreciate it tho.

 

I'm a bit ticked at the moment because my brother decided to show up to paint his calipers on my only day off with Camry parts ready to go on but no I have to wait for his paint to dry, that he could have done any other fing day because he has no job not to mention he doesn't even live here

after he masks off the door and run a window unit on the floor of the garage because god forbid he sweat
