What did you do to or with your CJ today?

The only thing I’ve found with Rock Auto is it takes a long time to get what you order. At least it has for me. But if you don’t need it fixed tomorrow, it’s all good!

Weird, my orders are always two days. Is it an account setting?

Could be something as simple as warehouse location or their inventory. Last thing I ordered from them was master cylinder, front calipers and rotors. I wouldn’t think those would be hard to find items for them, but who knows.

I've gotten it next day often. Usually a day or so to arrive. But for the massive cost savings and amount of items they have its well worth it

I guess they don’t like me, lol

Got about an hour’s work cutting sheet metal this morning before I was called back to go look for a Christmas tree.

Hopefully I can get back there later today. I need to fit a piece i’d just cut and ground to shape when the phone rang. That’s the back of a rocker panel and the stamped quarter will fit over it.

I need to get some regular work done too. Trash pickup is Monday morning. Need to fill the dumpster.

It’s an old maxstar 200, similar to the modern miller dynasty but without pulse. Welds great though.

Yep that’s it. miller maxstar 200. I don’t think they make that model anymore. The new maxstars are smaller.

Not a lot of functions but it does weld very nice

The simpler the better. I learned on a long stick that would bite your butt when you touched the wrong thing...
