Cleaning and Dressing the entire tire side without moving the vehicle

**Bunky** · 06-12-2011, 07:46 PM

I had read about this tip months ago and finally decided to put it into action today. It worked pretty good for V1.1 and thinking about version 2.0.

I used some left over pressure treated 2x6's and cut them to 22 in. I used my Dakota tires as the worst case. After using 1 time, they should be longer but I was trying to keep the weight down. They could use an end stop (like car ramps so you know when you are in position) and also tethered so you can pull them out easily.

I did not finish until it was dark so no after pics.

I read that same post Al and thought that was cool as well.

When I was taking my wheels off Skybaby to do the rotor hats and calipers I was purchased a low profile jack. Well, the one I needed was quite pricey. The one I purchased was not low enough profile so I pulled my sky up onto 2x4s. It gave me just the extra lift I needed to get my jack under there. And I saved $$

I remember seeing that tip and even cut the wood. Problem is I keep forgetting about it...

I'm gonna wait until they're on BOGO so I only need to pay for one pair.
