    Door Pull inserts.

    I made a post about this before. Figured I’d put it in this category as well. I needed some door pull inserts for my truck. And I did not like the ones that were available online. So I designed some 3-D printed ones. And I had a guy at my work who who has a side business 3-D printing. Basically...

    Door pull inserts

    So I’ve been working on this special project with a work colleague who has an Etsy account. I told him that he can sell them and to keep the cost down for the community I would not charge him anything and I would do all the R&D and draw up the parts. He agreed. So here you go. Cheers Southbay...

    Solid motor mounts

    I think this is the fifth set of JSM solid mounts that I’ve seen broken over the years. They tend to crack across the logo, and the ears tend to crack off of the plate. Especially on the driver side. Usually the motor drops just enough for the fan to hit the shroud. Jeff has been pretty cool...

    Solid motor mounts
