The Napa that I order from at the County shows (3) of them in stock.........My cost is $4.55 each.

I have the allen head ones in a bin in my garage at home, but I will probably get the Napa ones, due to the fact that I will always have an adjustable wrench with me most times..............I may not have the correct size allen key with me if i don't specifically remember to bring it in my trail box....................

Just ordered/picked up a bunch of parts, new rotors and pad, new shoes and wheel cylinders, and new exhaust. Yes that is right, everything from the manifold back. Still need to get a couple of O2 sensors, but I felt the $105 each that the store was asking for them was a bit expensive when I can both from Rock Auto, express shipped, for a little more that the cost of one here.

Check out Amazon. Got both mine for the same price as rock auto but with free shipping.

I am up here in Canada, everything is more expensive, even more so once you add in duties I found a place here about an hour away that has both upstream and downstream O2 sensors in stock for less than RA. I will be heading there tomorrow morning to pick them up and I can stop and pick up the rest of the stuff I ordered locally on the way home. All said and done, my brakes and exhaust for the XJ was cheaper than the 2 pipes, down and resonator, I bought for the Stealth.

10 days and counting till I have to have the XJ road legal, I could be wrenching in the rain later this week to make my deadline

Ripped out the seized ac compressor cause the jeeps not moving till I buy the new belt and bypass pulley Friday.. mines a 99 anyone ever take the entire ac system out. Ive never used it in any thing I've owned just the heat and I'd like to take out everything from the ac system I can to free up room under the hood and still be able to have heat and defrosters

I forgot to mention that the less than RA price is only if you add exchange and express shipping into the mix.

Finally got it offroad! Took a fun dirt road in Vail CO that had some fun puddles to bomb and some rockier stuff up near the top. Braaaaap! Let my buddy pictured hit one of the puddles and he was amped.
