My newest addition, had it a few months. still isnt enough room, So now im in the process of ordering a new cornwell box.
I work for a very large lease company, with the amount of work we have it ends up being cheaper to replace hub rather than press old studs out and new ones in. I believe you brokemechanic, We have some trucks come through that are absolute ridiculous, a large number of companies and their drivers figure its a lease truck, so lets just trash it. Had a freightliner come through that was ran with extremely low coolant for a week, went into shut down mode 3 times in the 50 feet i had to move it into the shop.
Rim and lugs from a dry cargo bulk trailer. lugs were loose. driver thought it was a good idea to keep driving. End result, both rims, brake drum and hub were all replaced
You will find many bolt on complete kits on eBay, check out this link: Honda exhaust Or: Catback Combo You will have to do some searching to find a complete emissions legal setup but they are out there. As far as modifying the stock 02 sensor to fit, it can be done, however if not done correct will cause you many issues. In any case Good Luck!

I would recommend watching Eric’s video review of the 3/8 inch tool. In my opinion 145 ft lbs is low. Not necessarily suited for lug nuts. My opinion would be to purchase something with 250 ft lbs or better. Because even though its rated at 145, and in your case you stated 80 ft lbs on your lugs, you have to account for corrosion on the threads/lugs. More often than not it takes a little bit of extra force to break them free. On the other hand if you’re only using it on your vehicle and for occasional use, you may find it suits you just fine.

I would recommend the Napa Eclipse. I replaced the front calipers on my dodge ram with them and have had no issues and I drive driven 100’s of miles up and down the hills in Pennsylvania with no issues. Little pricey but worth it in my opinion. Definitely better than the advanced auto reman garbage i had before.

I have a 24 volt 1/2 inch drive impact identical to the one in this link: Half inch impact. 410 foot lbs of torque. Mine does pretty well on lug nuts with a full charge. and i use it almost daily. That would be my recommendation. The hex impacts do not have the power for most nuts or bolts, and perform at a much lower level than even the unit Eric had reviewed. In my opinion it is probably the best tool for the price for what you need it for. other than that, A milwaukee,makita,ingersoll rand,or dewalt half inch impact would be a good brand name option for a much lesser price than a snap on, mac, or matco. I also bought a set of adapters so i can adapt down to 3/8 and 1/4 inch. Hope this helps! keep us apdated!

I had a 1998 GC laredo that developed a tapping noise as well. I was able to quickly figure out that it was a lifter, and all i did was add a bottle of oil treatment, the stuff that thickens the oil a bit and it helped tremendously. the lifter noise is common in all 4.0 six cyl, as well as many other jeep motors. Mine developed the issue around 170,000 miles. I realize you stated that it sounded like it was coming from the fly wheel area, just figured i would share my experience with my jeep. Hope it helps, If not Good luck, Hope you find an easy fix!!

Last two i bought were a set of Cornwell External Torx bits off of eBay for a wicked good Price:) and finally broke down and bought a set of the Gearwrench ratcheting wrenches, I bought the 20 piece sae/metric 0 degree offset at sears for around, And I absolutely LOVE them. I have set of craftsman double box end ratcheting and Much prefer the gearwrenches!!!!
