Not only does my garage look like that, but so does the side of my house, the back yard, the dog run, and 2 sheds...but I admit nothing. No problem!

Do you have to check under your bed at night to make sure an axle didn't sneak up there?

Nope. Under the bed is full of guitars. No room for axles. I may have multiple problems...

She hasn't seen anything yet, wait till she leaves!

Gonna be honest, I hated working on cars until I got my Cherokee. Now it is like a sickness. Swapped 4.0s a couple of months ago. Pull the knocker apart last night and found this.







I have a buddy who has a real nice green 99 xj that needs an engine so gonna have this one rebuilt, buy the roller, put the rebuild in it and see if I can make anything off of it. I love this!

What, only one axle? I have two sitting in mine.

I rent, so my addiction was filling up my second floor apartment with parts until I got to the point where I was considering buying axles. Axles in my bedroom and kitchen would have been a little ridiculous, so now I also rent a 40' RV garage with power. The owner has his own RV torn apart in one of the units, so he doesn't mind people working on their vehicles on the property.

Eventually I'll buy a place of my own with its own garage, but honestly I haven't seen a house yet with a garage as big as the one I rent. Maybe I'll just buy a light industrial building instead.
