That's nice.

I watched the vid on removing the belts! Yikes! I'll hold off on that until maybe next spring!

BTW: Seeing carpet with no dog fur kinda looks staged to me!

No prob, that'll just lower the price 20-50%. I'll still take it though.

Decided to rotate the tires. Dragged out the floor jack, impact, and stands. Then I thought, "You dumb ass. You screwed up your back so badly in June, you're just now getting better. Let Discount Tire do it for free." So, I listened to myself and put everything away.

Why do you need stands?

Check the torque.

Check the torque.

I usually put a stand in the front and leave the jack under the nub in the rear.

Always do, but I watched them use nice split beams to do final torque settings.

 

[2ndAmend]

Ah, you need 2 jacks, well, for you, not anymore.

I put the heavy jack in the front which partially lifts the rear also. Then I put the $69 HF lightweight in the back. I use the pucks front and back. If there is a quicker and easier way, I'd like to hear it!

Tomorrow the DR's and skinnies go on, fuel purge and add 100 octane, remove pass seat, etc., for Track Rental Friday.

There is...just drive it up on the lift..position the scissor table under the tire....the heaviest thing you will lift....the impact gun...work smarter..not harder

Yeah, If I was thinking ahead, I would have put a 16' ceiling in the barn when I built it, but too late now. 10' doesn't cut it.

@ 71..my layin on the ground days are over...even detail jobs are a breeze...no more bendin over

 

[Jimmy N.]

Yeah, rub it in....

That must be your way of saying that you do not.

But I can relate to the lack of garage height. Had the one in California built to accommodate a 1-ton pickup with a camper, since I'd never have anything taller than that.

Which I didn't until buying a Peterbilt a couple of years later.

I have two 2 ton aluminum jacks but changing wheels i use one and go around the car. Takes me less the 20 minutes to go from street to drag tires. Probably could knock off a little time using both on one side but fine using one
