line'x charged me 50 dollars a piece to linex ratty parts, the grill has held up like new for years. The tubes have held up as well, but a little more faded with time.

I did something similar with Rust-oleum bedliner on my wheels and steps. I've found that the foaming tire shine cleans it up nicely.

I carry a Glock 30 in a small-of-the-back holster. It has chewed holes in every shirt I wear due to the steel belt clip. I decided to buy some 55 lb magnets for $18.@ and Roscoe now rides on the door with a spare 13 rd mag from my G21's. 55 lb. magnets are serious as hell. Short of a high speed wreck, they do not move. Just gotta remember to grab Roscoe and put him back in his leather house before flinging the door open at Krogers, lol.7d80f561b45c655fd308b49e8e277ac3.jpg48a525e91d33bcd6ff0bf92482b85ade.jpg

I did the same thing (in a different spot) but you get the firearm close and man, that baby snaps right onto it. Gotta keep your fingers out of the way or they get pinched lol. The double sided tape was pretty worthless, for me anyway. The first time I pulled the gun off the magnet, the magnet came with it. I had to use the screw-n-glue method....

Yes sir. 4 screws in each magnet. Learned my lesson re: neodinium magnets when I laughed about the WARNING! label and what I thought was a silly amount of material separating them years ago. hahaha.....SNAP!.....OWWWWWW! Dammit! Then the "Wife Laugh" and reminder all day long. "Oh, my big, toughguy husband got his wittle finger bit by a wittle baby magnet". I then did it AGAIN! She was rolling. All day. She's lucky I like her.
Back on track here, these worked out so well, I am ordering more. I came up with like 8 different places I want them, lol.
They work best on Glocks and steel 1911's.

Just because I'm paranoid don't mean they aint after me.

I keep my ED on a trickle-charger in my shop. I got tired of popping the hood to hook up, and I don't like searching around for a dangling cable end.
I bought an Optimate 40" panel mount socket for $16.56

After numerous re-measurements (really hard to just punch holes in the bumper fascia) I drilled out a 3/4" hole, mounted the socket and fished it up to the battery. Now all I have to do is back it in and plug the charger in.

Just swapped out the Eco diesel airbox and intake into my 5.7. The box is bigger and the intake hole is bigger, while retaining the same filter and upper cover. Got the whole thing for 70 bucks on eBay. Read this trick elsewhere on the forum and loved the idea. Just a bit more air and still looks stock.

Many countries punish law abiding citizens in an ill fated attempt to control the criminals. Seems many people in the US don’t like our constitution...especially the 2nd amendment. I say if you don’t like it please quit talking about changing it or leave. Many people died to get us these rights and I plan to respect them while enjoying my right to defend myself against evil people. Wish my Canadian brothers could enjoy this right as well. No bear protection in the woods? Are you kidding me?

We can carry in the woods yes, just not handguns.
