For example: Approach Angle: the angle at which a line drawn from the leading part of the vehicle's bodywork and touching the front tyre meets the ground. It gives an indication of the steepness of a step-up that a 4x4 can approach without its nose digging in. The bigger the angle, the closer it is to 90 degrees the better for offroad work.

Drill Press Useage
A drill press is preferable to a hand drill when the location and orientation of the hole must be controlled accurately. A drill press is composed of a base that supports a column, the column in turn supports a table. Work can be supported on the table with a vise or hold down clamps, or the table can be swiveled out of the way to allow tall work to be supported directly on the base. Height of the table can be adjusted with a table lift crank than locked in place with a table lock. The column also supports a head containing a motor. The motor turns the spindle at a speed controlled by a variable speed control dial. The spindle holds a drill chuck to hold the cutting tools (drill bits, center drills, deburring tools, etc.).

History of the Jeep
Whether you’re a Jeep fan or not, the diminutive vehicle played a big role in all of our lives, from winning wars to freeing our souls in the search for the outback. And while DaimlerChrysler doesn’t look kindly on trademark infringement, the word Jeep or jeep is bandied about in a multitude of versions, and often applied to other 4x4s simply because the word seems as generic as Coke, Kleenex, or Clorox.
So how did this history-making vehicle come about and survive all of its permutations through the years? It’s a convoluted story and would take more pages than most of you would care to read, so we present the abridged, condensed, and compacted version for your reading enjoyment.

How to Deal With Chrysler Corp.
* Be *polite* and *calm* but assertive at all times. Do not take no
for an answer but do *not* act angry or threaten them. This will
only make matters worse. Chrysler's customer service is often very
good but the people seem to be very sensitive, for some reason.
They also often don't know what they're talking about, so
elaboration may help.
