You might be thinking of the posi torq or posi grip style. They have like a smaller Phillips within a Phillips style head. The JIS and normal Phillips are pretty much identical, other than the angle of the blades are different

Not using the proper JIS driver is half the reason why most screws are stripped out. The other is that most people don’t use the right size. Most commonly a # 2 driver on a # 3 screw. The easy way to identify JIS is there is a dot stamped into the head of the screw between the slots.

Snap on does sell these? I’ve been looking for awhile now and the only place I’ve found actual JIS screwdrivers is through Amazon and made by Vessel.

Well, it’s not an ATV in the normal sense, but I brought this in the house to warm up, so I could put the finishing touches on its restoration, or should I say it’s more of a refurbished project

Zillas, as great as they are for an all around general purpose trail tire, won’t last long in the rocks. To soft and will wear fast and or rip,cut, get torn. Blackwaters I don’t know much about other than their 30 year old predecessor. They were hard, tough as nails last forever type a tire that...

I’ve always had good luck with Cooperators. Never had a machine denied by them yet. Although I’m not super impressed with the sport bike policy. Just because they classify the CBR600 as restricted and charge me double for it. I’ve insured anything from new to almost 40 years old for off-road...

If you bought it prior to Covid 2 years ago, add $1000 to whatever you got it for. If it was bought after Covid and cerb cheques, list it for the same.

Merry Christmas to all my fellow S&Mer’s. From the few that I do know to the many that I don’t. From my house to yours. Whether it’s with loved ones around the tree, the side of a mountain, or sun n sand getaway destination. Wishing every one all the best!

Scammers are everywhere. Kijiji and Facebook are the worst though. Used to be able to spot them easily, but their game has gotten better.

Not a huge beer fan. Kokanee was my go to, until they started brewing it in Edmonton and you can taste the NSR in it. [emoji2961]. I do like MGD still and bottles naturally. American Vintage Teas or Captain Spice is where it’s at usually.

When I was younger, pure milk chocolate bars with the little bubbles were my go to. Like Aero and Mirage.

Coffee Crisp!

Bunch of the Yamaha’s, well all of them actually. And some of the Honda’s. Couple of them left me for a new home and I’ve added a few different ones since this pic.

All simple stuff.

My 83 yard beater 200 big red. Needs a seat cover. Typical of most everything I have. Always seat covers.
