4X gun

Post by jeeper50 »

Keep an eye on this. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/D-K-DV-8 ... 06.c0.m245

Two people is the way to go. Having shot a few rivets and straddled floor beams in my day, a nice cozy spot in the air conditioned CFM 56 engine shop is now my home.

Wesk- I've got 21yrs at Delta, if you work for Northwest come on down.

Jeeper, one more question,

What size was the rivet gun did you use? Was it a 4x? I got my bumper from Midwest and I'm ready to install. The only problem is I can find a rivet gun in the area.

Thanks.
