I would use it mainly for jeep parts. There are a few local weld shops and I dont think any of them have a plasma table. I would probably try to get some work from them. I've been looking at 4x4 tables.

Your best bet locally would be whatever Advanced/Autozone/Pep Boys carry

If you find any with good taillights (no deep scratches, chips, or breaks), I'll buy them from you for $50/set. I'm stockpiling.

Anyone want to help me do ball joints over at Fort Meade on Saturday? Left side are bad so I'll be doing ball joints, front U-Joints, and maybe hubs.

And speaking of which...does anyone have the means to build custom taillight housings? Nothing fancy; I'd be happy with thin gauge metal. These things are difficult to find, and even harder to find cheap.

I like the rectangular look, but I'd switch to LED lighting if someone with more electrical knowledge than me wanted to help out. Remember, the MJ has different lights and a very small aftermarket.
