Re: Rusty, crushy, but trysty.

First off, that is one nice lookin truck! It's been really cool watching it all come together.

I agree about Harbor Freight tools. I'm still learning to work on my own rigs as i go, and my favorite way of buying tools is at garage sales. But when you need something right a way, Harbor Freight is really nice. Some things are junk, so I try to only buy something if I'm going to use it right away and give it a good work out, that way I can take it back if it's useless.

I like there impact sockets, and I've put a few of there wrenches, and there 3/8 ratchet through some tough stuff using a cheater pipe. And yes they do stand behind there lifetime warranty for the things I have broken.

I shop there a lot and have a heap of stuff I wouldn't be able to afford if it were branded Snap On or even Craftsman. Like a buddy with much more skills and money once told me - "at that price, it doesn't matter if it doesn't last a lifetime."

What are the specs on the cam?
