I'll have a house with a garage hopefully by next summer. Until then ...
I did that for a year here in fort Myers, never again. Now I have a garage and my neighbors are more interested in learning than calling code enforcement

I was renting a house in a golf course with a 2 car garage. But I downsized to save money to buy a house. This is just temporary but it still blows none the less. Had to rent a container for all my tools and junk.

If you ever need to wrench or use a driveway, just ask.

thanks man! I'll take you up on that next month when I set the pinion angle and swap my front drive shaft. I had to bite the bullet on this one. I needed my daily driver back. This guy did excellent work. He had it done in one day. Between working overtime and moving I didn't have the time. I took him a closet full of new parts and he did me right. It was a little more than what I thought it would be but at 85 dollars an hour it adds up fast. Haha. My differentials should be ready for whatever I need to throw at them. Luckily I found a honest mechanic.

Don't believe they allow jacks.
