Anyone got a good, genuine spare ...

Re: FB EK UTE SPARE WHEEL CLAMP

G'day Billy I got tired of chasing a clamp so I ended up bidding on one from a trusted seller, fjpanelvan1, who is a really good fellow to buy from. Enter 112671491508 in the item search bar - I ended up paying $127.50 with EB at my heels at $125. I don't understand why he wants every damn part so o...

Re: Harv's (Grace's) EK ute

Far out Harv! That EK is now looking the business! It is Silverton Grey now. Looks like all those stupid little holes along the quarter are all filled now ready for lift-a-dots (I'm sure you know it but you can get them with studs to fit real nuts too - thats what is going on the FB). Grace is a luc...

Re: Harv's (Grace's) EK ute

I was really happy to see Harv get that ute, and good to see it will be a father daughter project too :vecctor: It had sat around for too long and with it gone I can now get started on the FB ute - Gotta love a Colleen Green ute ! Like Harv said I got a bit of history on the ute - It was bought by a...

Re: Oxy propane cutting and heating

I've cut thick steel with propane no problems. If you can get yourself the oxy acetylene. It's a lot more controllable for fine work like shrinking. What Dave said. Oxy/Acetylene (in my opinion) is far more versatile and easier to direct intense heat into a smaller area eg heating a seized nut. Get...

Rotisserie Clearance Height

I know a lot of us on here would like a rotisserie rig to make life easy but wonder if it will fit in the shed as far as the height goes. I can most likely find a spot to 'spin' it but the ideal place is near the front of the garage where the panel door is. Would a few out there with current shells ...
