best trick I have learned this week. I just tackled this job and took me 15 minutes start to finish with this trick.
downside tho are that the original screws didn't come out. they are stuck on the valance. have a magnet on a stick handy.

thx for the tip!!

This all the same month that I’m getting new wheels and tires:



Flat tire may not be repairable, the curbed one is okay, this is just the first time ever that I’ve curbed a wheel. And it was a doozy.

I would hate to have to order a tire when I’ll be replacing them at the end of the month.

Added an additional ground cable to help with the slow crank/hot engine issue...

Bought the cable from BatteryCablesUSA, 21" 0 Gauge (1/0), 3/8" connectors (M10): $12.81 + $3.97 shipping = $16.78 + $3.18 at Home Depot for a new bolt, nuts and washers... Total: $19.96 installed, took about 10 minutes...

Order a new set of wheels and tires.

Went with the MRR 017.

I'm assuming 10" fronts and 11" rears? Gloss black or Gunmetal?

Let me know how you like them, I'm contemplating these same wheels when it comes time for tires... I love the 1LE rims...

Possibly will pull mine to re-adjust the aluminum car crash bar upward, so hopefully there’s less gap at the corners.

In the link below, I posted pictures of the MRR M017 wheels next to new 1LE wheels. You can see they compare. Really good IMO

National Stick Shift Day

Well, not what I did to it, but what I did for it.
Today is National Stick Shift Day -- which I thought it would be a great day to create an Instagram account for my ride.

I named it months ago -- Blue honey. The insta is @bluehoney3lt
