IDK exactly what you guys need but Fastenall/McMaster/Grangier all have a good selection of stainless clamps and most ship same day. Over the years Ive replaced most of my aftermarket steel hardware with stainless from them.

Replaced the lock on the console vault. I feel better about not losing a key.

Both the gun and the box are illegal in Kalifornia. Farking commies.

lol

Ive earned that laugh by almost having a similar amount of rights stripped from me.

My buddy at work just moved from NJ to PA and attended his first large PA gun show last weekend. Kid in a candy store does not even come close to his enthusiasm now that he has second amendment rights again.

How does it feel to not be able to protect yourselves? :(

Things "may" be looking brighter.....Christie takes action that could make it easier to legally carry a handgun in N.J.

Current law:
"In 1971, the state Supreme Court found that gun carry permits may be issued only to those "who can establish an urgent necessity for carrying guns for self-protection" such as those "whose life is in real danger, as evidenced by serious threats or earlier attacks."
In 1990, the state Supreme Court clarified that that burden of "urgent necessity" included "specific threats or previous attacks demonstrating a special danger to the applicant's life that cannot be avoided by other means."
As a result, almost no one outside of retired law enforcement and those employed as armored car guards have been allowed to carry firearms legally."

I learn as I go
So I used two clamps and finally got it to work, but I noticed today it was still leaking. Did I tighten the clamp too much and split the boot? I can't quite tell. Sadly I wiped it off before I thought to take a picture...

Try to wipe off the grease under the lip of the boot where it clamps on the axle shaft... then tighten down.

Sean is very right! Undo the clamp, move the boot back, clean the surface the best you can (if you can, try to clean the inside of the mating surface - that may be tough though). Also, when you do tighten any hose clamp, they can be over tightened. Over tightening means you start to cut into the rubber/plastic - you don't want to cut into the rubber/plastic. Ideally you put it on when rebuilding the axle before you put the grease in. The large ends have a tongue and grove type mounting area under the clamp area that helps keep the boot in position. The small end doesn't have that.

The console vault is handy for more things than just a handgun. Lol. My only gripe is that it doesn't fit a full size 1911 very well.

I should have the front 3 link about 95% done by the end of the weekend. Just have to get my driver side coilover mount finished and get my Eibach bump stops installed on the coilovers. I need to update my thread I guess...

That's Mr Asshole to you
Got the oil changed and realized Discount Tire installed 9" wheels instead of the 8.5" that I ordered and paid for. Calling tomorrow to get this straight and also see about new tires.
