Pretty much the same thing for twice the price, almost identical.
If I were spending that much I would just buy a full carrier replacement locker.

I second that. I am trying to convince myself of all the good things that I would spend money on if I had access to a shop like that.


Looks good, now we need pics of this beast in action.

I'm SOOO thankful that my Chevy's engine blew when I was a Junior in high shool....that's what really got the ball rolling on the shop.... Dad basically built it for the kids....so I'm VERRY THANKFUL the old man did the shop for us.

BUT...not to sound like an *** or ungrateful little brat, but my shop is no comparison to just about all my friends with shops....Austies is like twice as big with a 2post lift in it....Blake's is shoot, like 7000 square feet! lol. I love my shop.

I'm pretty much gaurenteeing after this weekend ther'll be a thread of it in action.
