For helping keep this great
old truck web site

Soooooo, I decided to whip up a little AD 3100/3600 dust cover driver the other morning. Now I got another tool that I’ll use once every four or five years, that is if I remember that I have it in the box! The tool for the man who has everything: http://www.pbase.com/dennygraham/image/116021940 In action: http://www.pbase.com/dennygraham/image/116021962 Denny Graham Sandwich, IL

I've seen them at some of the vendors but I would never spend the money for one. I just so happened to have a piece of aluminum tubing with a 3" od. and a 2" id. The rest is just plane boring.

haha, Scott | | | | | Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 9,671 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 9,671 | Now don't ya have to many tools that you only use once every now an then in your toolbox alreasy Scott? I'd liken this to the egg slicer that Lenny is hawking on the T&V, use it once and then reach for the hammer the next time. I have had a lot of fun making some of the other special tooling to fix up the truck. Now I'd be able to use a lot of that more than once if I started restoring trucks as a sideline. But I have enough sidelines tugging at me right now. Have a good weekend buddy, Denny Graham Sandwich, IL

Did you buy a new Rubber Mallet for your installation picture? Looks like it has never been used before. LOL Keep up the good work.

Taker-offer? Sure, a Red Devil putty knife, a wide blade screwdriver and that soft hammer. DG
