It doesn't get a lot of traffic, that's for sure. I posted in the Conversations board awhile ago about 3D printing stuff for our trucks, where @Bulldogger was also a contributor.
I haven't printed anything for my truck yet, but I'm thinking with an extruder mod on my printer I could print rubber trim gaskets for the gaps between the fenders and cab body panels on my truck that have since dry-rotted.
The best thing I've printed yet to help with my tire project is an ABS 1"x1/2" drive female-female adapter for connecting a 1" drive torque multiplier to anything with a 1/2" drive, like a torque wrench. That's how I've been setting the torque for the clamp ring nuts on my rims and the wheel lug nuts
I thought about printing a tool to help with seating axle seals, but I might find a suitable PVC pipe to use instead. We'll see!
