This is the only picture that I have of my garage. Believe me when I say that it is usually not this disorganized. This picture was taken when I was in the middle of installing my 6 inch lift on the 94 Ranger. Now the only thing I keep in there is one motorcycle and a small toolbox.



When I want to do any serious work, I go over to my Dad's shop. Again it is normally cleaner and alot more organized but we are in the process of remodeling it:







This is the old conveyor belt (which still works) from when the building used to be a Five & Dime Store way back when.

Here's my "workshop" I just took this pic. Daughter's friend's CRV, My MGA, My truck, Neighbor's Rogue, Daughter's Maxima, Wife's Honda. All in the driveway/under the carport. Since it's all asphalt, I envy you concrete guys. It's where I work on the Ranger though.

I've actually got a man-cave too though with a couple of two-tiered craftsman tool boxes crammed full of tools - but RD has made me ashamed. My wife decided that was where we needed to store all of her parent's furniture when they had a water leak in their house so it's pretty horribly cramped now.

This is where I work. Boss is pretty cool about me working on my own stuff there but it has to be out by Monday am so that makes weekend kinda stressful making sure it gets rolled out one way or another. The wheel lifts are nice for some stuff but suck for doing work on suspension or axle stuff but thats what the handy dandy 10ton frame stands are for!! :icon_thumby:
