Last Monday I had to work outside in the morning. It was -35°C (-31°F). Today, at the same time of day it was +1°C (34°F). We're supposed to be even warmer later this week. Our weather has gone crazy.

I think every 4-post that is used for work should have one.

Mine has a jack tray but the bottle jack is a bit too precarious for my liking. This allows you to lift under the frame rails easily and safely as well. Putting the tires on the pedestal pads is not a good idea, and they wouldn't turn well with weight on them regardless. That's what turn plates...

When my dad got a 4-post at his repair shop, it was quickly obvious how helpful the center lift was. Some jobs are still easier on a 2-post, but for general hobbyist use a 4-post with center lift is way better for me.

I got a new toy today that I ordered before Christmas. This 3,500 lb center jack will make my 4-post WAY more useful! It has been on my list to add to my house since we bought the place, so I'm super excited to finally have one!

Looks like a cool channel I was unaware of. I'll check his stuff out. Thanks for sharing!

To be honest, in Canada they're probably the second most common of classic trucks (after the 67-72 Chevy's). At every show and meet there are a bunch. I'm not typically a fan of them chopped, but it makes it stand out.

We used to go to shows at least one day a weekend, often 2 and a cruise night. Now I go to 2-3 a year, maybe. I go to the local weekly cruise night as often as I can. Usually 2-3 times a month through the warm months. In my nearly 22 years of driving life, I've been to a ton of shows. I find it...

Looks great! I love the whole thing and the tonneau cover just adds a bit to it.

On Monday morning I had to go just outside of the City for work. I saw -38°c on the way, and it was -35°C the entire time I was there. A good portion of the work was outside. Yesterday morning we were a full 20°C warmer. For those who haven't experienced that cold, if you touch metal with your...

If you need more let me know. It's not hard to get to and our polar vortex is coming to an end!

-38.5°C when I got up this morning. We got up to -32°C today. Supposed to be back up to freezing by next weekend.

Sorry for the delay, @23crate. I braved the "polar vortex" at -33°C this afternoon and finally got you some photos with rough measurements. Hope these work for you!

You did an awesome job from where I'm sitting! I'm betting when it's all back together it will be tough for most people to catch what you did! Nice work.

I have one too but I haven't used it yet other than for display purposes. Mine is a Thermador, and the body of it is made from sheet metal. I can take measurements for you if that would help. You don't want it to be heavy as in most designs a portion of the weight is on the window glass. This...

Looks awesome!

Happy New Year couper and everyone else!

This is a pretty cool YouTube video showing some of the stuff Rob Ida has and is working on. He has built a lot of wild stuff!

The particular word that applies is Nostalgia.
