    Welding helmets: auto darkening

    After running through 2 HF helmets, I purchased a budget Miller Classic unit, which performs much better than the HF units and is also more comfortable to wear. Picked it up from Praxair on 3rd West for just under $100. I love the units with cool looking graphic and giant lenses, but I can't...

    Front Shock Question

    Does the shock still work properly, other than being loose? Id check the status of the upper bushings and if the shock is still good, just replace the bushings. This could easily be remedied with some additional washers.....or, use this a a great excuse to buy new shocks!
