Well frick. Its cold. Running lights,heaters and compressor and blast cabinet. Tripped a breaker. Not in shop,but at the sub panel. Shut everything down and go trudge through snow to reset it. Resume program.
Headers blasted and a coat of 1200 degree woodstove flat black. They had gloss,but the flat hides the scars and scrapes.
Oh,they look so much better!
Lots of time for paint to cure too.

wow. That makes no sense

 

[Ddaddy]

They never take servicing them into account when they design them. You have to drop the entire rear cradle on the LX Mopars to change the fuel tank.

yeah, have seen stuff where you have to pull a bar or 2 loose to get them apart. Still not as bad as some of the Hondas where you need to unbolt the axle and pull the hub out to swap the rotors.
