Wow great building very envious!Would give my left nut for another building here for storage.Whats going in the building and will it be powered?I need something more as we have junk 3 XJ's here in the last two years so the spare stuff is stacking up and we now have 5 jeeps here that are being driven so the two bays get used and the lean-to I put on the side last year stores the hard top ,axles and usually an XJ....

Nice shop, not sure if I've seen inside pics before. Your cinder blocks are stacked in a non-load bearing fashion and can crumble from 'not much' force. Turn them so holes are up/down, same as you would build a wall. What you have there is an accident waiting to happen. Couple of hammer hits on the rig, impact force down thru the jackstand, and cracking the thin bridge of the cinder block can kill you if you are laying under there. I wouldn't use them at all. I have that sticker on my toolbox too, c'ept crossed out God and put Satan! I knew when I took the pics before posting that the block thing would come up!I knew it would be spotted quickly.I've never used them before only 6" solid blocks of wood like in the back.The passenger side is still on car ramp with tire.I just ran outside that night to put something there as we were trying different style wheels to see if they fit over brakes and thats it.They are now back in the woods laying again and Jeep blocked right!Kinda made myself look like an "ass"! ooops! Thanks for the comments on lighing just added a few more ceiling lights and went with different bulbs in all lights that gives off a different glow and like it alot they come from Liteco and are like $3.00 a piece but made a big difference.I'm real fussy when it comes to being able to see when working on jeeps and I tend to clean the shop after every job is done.....

I am not sure, mine came off by stuffin the wheel into them. Check on www.lostjeeps.com the answer should be there. Won't be stuffing these wheels anytime soon its will be daily driver for Linda as were laying the LJ up in shop for winter and will drive this.Picked it up real cheap and will replace rockers,do rear brakes,gas tank straps and a new muffler and its ready for snow.Putting 15x8 D-windows and Goodyear Wranglers that came with LJ in a 235/75/15 on it......

Got an 02 KJ here at the house actually I bought it and got to put rockers on it.I want to remove the flares to do some welding and put back on.My question is they have the plastic rivets.Yes you drill them out and put new ones in but.Do they come off any other way so I can reuse?If not do you need a special rivet tool to put new rivets back in?I see Napa/CT and others carry the rivets.....

Thinking about 60's under the Jk, new is completely out of the question unless I win the lottery. Anyone looking to sell a set? Your 44's can go in my shop when they come out!
