    • Bendpak or Rotary are the big names. Bendpak is probably the most expensive, but the quality is good. Rotary is good also, but I prefer the color scheme of the Bendak. There are a lot of cheaper options out there, likely made overseas. I'm sure the quality is fine.. but you know there are only two posts and four arms holding a vehicle weighing thousands of pounds above your head. I just ordered and received mine from Bendpak. All in, a pretty simple process. I emailed them, they send a quote. Free shipping to your door if you have the ability to unload. If not then you get into fees with the piggy back fork lifts, or lift gates which can be expensive. Another option is to ship to a local freight depot which is free. Then you can pickup from there. That's what I ended up doing. I'm sure Rotary does the same thing. Shipping time was about a week I think? Your mileage may vary depending on your location.   Helpful tip, if you settle on a lift read the concrete specs carefully. I read the concrete specs in the install manual, poured a slab based on those specs. Turns out, there is a supplemental concrete spec guide for Bendpak.. which goes into much greater detail. I missed that, and now I get the opportunity to test my jackhammer skills while pouring a new footing. All lifts are different, so all specs are different. Just be sure you do your due diligence. If not sure, contact the manufacturer. Which is what I should have done.  
    • Damn, you're right. While I seem to remember concepts easily, details can escape. What stuck in my mind was that the natives wrapped wet rawhide around their junk and then drugged up and started dancing around a hot fire. The pain and drugs frenzy was increased with the knowledge if they lived through the battle, they would be living without their manhood. 
    • I ordered a 1990 D21 clutch kit, everything seems the same as what came with it, except the pressure plate is shorter than what I ordered, is this going to be an issue?   
    • The pistol caliber used by American forces against Philipino Moro insurrectionists was ,38 caliber revolvers not 9mm handguns, The adoption of the 45 Automatic was to a large extent driven by this inadequate stopping power demonstration, The 9mm Parabellum had not yet been developed by 1898 and the Spanish American war,
    • Not sure if I understand. I would choose a .38 over a 9mm, because, the lightweight .38 Detective revolver is a simple, safe, easy, concealable weapon and I prioritize those features over others, when advocating concealed carry. If the situation might warrant prioritization of stopping power (people), higher capacity and ease/speed of reload, then I choose .45 ACP . The 9mm, much like the .40 and whatever "new" calibers are the favorite of the week, attempt to answer problems and address priorities, which are not my concern.
