Audi uses 3D printing to make some of their spare parts.
A 1914 race engine that had a cracked block, no parts anywhere to be found... lasers were used to measure the disassembled block and other parts.
The block and other parts were made via 3D printer and after final assembly the engine runs and still runs today. Sorry can't provide the link from this phone.
These printers can make parts from plastic to metal to carbon fiber.
With TJ and other discontinued car parts, have any you Jeep heads ever looked into this?
