    Really good deal on craftsman tools ((updated for 2025)) other tool brands added

    I have plenty of boxes, two Snap on roll cabs and three Snmap on top boxes, I never use most of them as I am constantly traveling from place to place to work so the foam system wouldn't work that well for me. I built a tool trailer out of an old aluminum pop up camper bottom and an aluminum...

    Really good deal on craftsman tools ((updated for 2025)) other tool brands added

    I have had a lot of everything mostly Snap on and Mac but I have had SK, proto, Craftsman, Kobalt, Cresent and several others over the years, to me Kobalt is most like the Snap on tools, Craftsman I like their wrenches a lot, the sockets seem good, the ratchets are a little clunky, I prefer the...

    the trivial complaints thread

    I went in for pre- op on my Umbilical hernia surgery, they did an EKG , said I was in AFIB and canceled the surgery, so I got an appointment with a Cardiologist, he put me on Elequis and cleared me for surgery, I went by the other DR's office and rescheduled the surgery, I went in for pre-op Wed...

    Cast sleeves

    Prop pitch threads are like two stroke oil threads , avoid at all costs.

    Cast sleeves

    Did you by any chance start about ten different threads at the same time about the same ski ?

    Cast sleeves

    I don't get it first you didn't say what the cylinders were off of I guessed that one, we still don't know if it's a GP800 or an XLT800 and yes it will make a difference in selling price, how do you expect to get decent informative answers here without giving proper information, garbage in...

    Cast sleeves

    I can't say , I don't know what your parts cost is, what the total will be , what the rest of the ski looks like or what else it may need, and I especially don't know what these skis are going for in your area, you need to figure all of that out first, then figure out whether it is worth doing...

    Cast sleeves

    They are Nikasil or chrome bore cylinders, nothing there to bore without installing cast iron sleeves.

    Cast sleeves

    You get the same parts from SBT whether you get a crank and cylinder exchange kit from them or a rebuilt engine. If you want the good stuff then have someone rebuild the crank, buy OEM pistons or Pro K pistons and have the cylinders replated .

    Cast sleeves

    Okay I guess you will have to explain this one to me, the parts they use are get like the parts you will use if you buy the parts from them, but you will probably spend more money buying the parts individually and assembling it yourself. Hint it's not their assembly practices that are...

    FX1 WHITE?

    In single stage PPG it's Yamaha Super white, I have had it mixed in Concept, Deltron ,Omni and Nason single stage before and they all matched and worked really well, if by chance you need to blend it for a spot repair Upol makes an excellent blender available in a spray can, I used it on a that...

    New hull

    This reminds me of something my friend used to say ( How do you know if you don't know ? )

    Cast sleeves

    Not really I see gouges in the cylinder walls, you might as well just get an SBT rebuilt engine if the crank and head are trashed. It will be cheaper in the long run.

    Cast sleeves

    Well if you are asking opinions I say get it replated, the piston to wall clearances can be set up much tighter, most of the Yamaha 800's and 1200's I have worked on with cast liners sounded horrible, the heat dissapation difference between cast liners and chrome bore is tremendous.

    New hull

    Well he did sell the company didn't he ? I followed that thread for while because I found his concept very interesting, truefully I saw no reason to have the hull seperate in two pieces but that's neither here or there. If I was making a new hull out of some spage age plastic I would put a...

    New hull

    I think they spent more on advertising than they did the skis.
