jeepsr4ever You either A. Have to bribe officials with beer and stogies B. Hide inside a box and hope you make it through C. Be one heck of a hardcore AMC fan enough to make it through 3 days of AMCs in the park and get a free tour Lets go with C but I was pretty tired so the quality might not be that great. This plant in Kenosha was huge...it felt like I walked 1.5miles through it! I swear I didnt take 200 pictures :wink: Here are the pics..
jeepsr4ever This robot installs heads and head bolts...sends the engine down the line for another robot to torque the bolts The very last 4.0ltr to roll off the line..signed by the workers. We will miss you strait six 🙁 The O'shit board Box O' connecting rod This is the tool they use to cut cranks..this cutting body is held within a percent of a degree and they claim .00002 accuracy after grinding. (Tool is 4' in diameter)
