  1. I used to work handling insurance claims and most of the stuff you get to "secure" your home is of little value. Most interior doors have only a 3/4" thick door jamb and no matter what kind of lock you have on it, the door is going to open. Even a heavy gate that people put on the outside of a door is only as good as the few screws that hold it on to the trim. A decent crow bar will rip it down in a couple pulls. Even if you were going to get a safe door to put on your room, a foot can go thru drywall and most plaster with just as much ease as going thru a cheap door. The best way to make your room secure is to screw T111 plywood siding on all the interior walls of the room. Make sure it is screwed to the studs, and laminate the inside of the door with it as well. Screw and glue it to the door. Make sure that all of your existing hinge screws are long enough to go into the studs and not just the door jamb and install surface mount dead bolts at the top and bottom of the door on the latch side. Make sure your screws go thru the plywood paneling and into the stud. I see no need to attach anything to the floor and really no need for the gate. This way from the outside of the room it looks like any other door in the house but inside it is solid. The final thing to do is see a doctor about your paranoid behaviour. Even with all these steps, a sawzall would get someone into the room in a matter of minutes if they really wanted to get in.
  2. Am I the first Dave?
  3. Mrs. Ray Van stankinstein... Has a kind of ring to it If there's still a chance it won't work out, rent... Meet the Parents and A Guy Thing and see if you can handle those scenerios. If you can, then why wait onother year? Marriage is the best decision I ever made and I don't make too many of those. Wish you 2 the best
  4. My friend is finishing off his basement and wants a big screen of some kind for the TV room. He's been looking into projectors and big screens but can't decide. Basically just want to know if one has better resolution and flexability than the other. The projection distance is about 13 feet. The budget is about $3000.
  5. Give-aways are always best but trades or whatever is also workable. I'm not getting an email when someone replies so email me direct with what you want for this stuff... [email protected]
  6. I'll put up pics when I'm done... if I ever get all the parts I need
  7. Send me an email and we'll [email protected]...
  8. Send me a pic when you get a chance and any trades you may want... [email protected]
  9. Yeah the pic would be great. I'm curious what size tubing you used and how you converted the rectangular opening to the round tubing. I find this to be the biggest problem with the Trinity... the actual passage is only about 1.125 square even though it looks like a rectangle on both ends.
  10. Why the heck would you want plastic bushings for your A arms? If plastic was all that good you wouldn't need to replace 'em now. I can get you some bearings instead and should last forever. Unless you never grease your suspension... then get the plastic bushings.
  11. jinx... email me anyway. I still need another axle and some junk. [email protected] CEJ... more experiments
  12. How much for the axle?
  13. Thanks guys. I knew the wheel hubs are interchangable but I wasn't sure if the axle was different where the bearings mount. The early carrier tube seems alot smaller than the later model.
  14. Just wondering if the axles for the early carrier are the same as those after 91.
  15. Looks like I'm getting the carrier from Nyuk and JKJK... THANKS GUYS But still need messed up hubs and one old style bent axle. Does anyone know if the old axle and new axles are the same?
  16. If eveyone could give me the email addresses for any help on this I'd appreciate it. He already has the engine {LT1} and he was concerned about the opti-spark. Is there a reliable aftermarket alternative? Because this thing WILL get wet.
  17. i got an axle bent on a 45 degree ange, good carrier sprocket and brake hubs.let me know if you need it,axle is free,just a few rupees for the other stuff. 279517[/snapback] Send me an email NYUK and we'll work something out. I don't need the sprocket or the disc. [email protected]
  18. My brother in law has a really nice rock climber Jeep that he's going to put a 94 vette engine in. Any suggestions? There was some question about the direction of the coolant flow and the opti-spark {?} distributer. Any info would be great. We were also wondering about top speed with 35" tires.
  19. Thanks guys. Send me an email and we'll make arrangements. [email protected]
  20. I have waited for such wisdom for years.
  21. REVISED!!! I'm looking for 1 damaged axle. The axle can be rusty and damaged and or bent. I don't need the sprocket or brake disc and I don't care if all of the threads or splines are damaged. I have plenty of stuff to trade. I also need 2 sets of hubs and I don't care if the splines are bad or if the bolts are missing. Basically I'm looking for your old junk.
  22. Pretty sure I have one Ben... I'd be more than happy to send it out. Just email me... [email protected]
  23. I'm looking for 2 old carriers and 2 damaged axles. The carriers can be rusty but the bearing areas must be usable. The Brake tabs can be bent or damaged or missing. The axles can be rusty and damaged but the bearing area must be good and the axle should be fairly straight. I don't need the sprocket or brake disc and I don't care if all of the threads or splines are damaged. I have plenty of stuff to trade. I also need 2 sets of hubs and I don't care if the splines are bad or if the bolts are missing. Basically I'm looking for your old junk.
  24. How many of those $$$'s do you have?
