My alignment machine is one of these types. What I do is clamp the sensor carriage on the INSIDE of the ring. Like you said I have beadlocks on mine and cant remove them. My next alignment machine wont have this limitation, but thats $40k I really cant spend just this moment!
he is talking about 500.1 setup...different from the 200.4. 200.4 setup is done w/no sub connected. 500.1 you leave the main audio system alone. The sub amp stays silent, but the main audio still plays sound (really annoying sound too!)
The "limb risers" were more or less a bust for me. I used them once and mostly they strip leaves and small twigs from the limbs and neatly deposit them on the cowl, blocking my vision. The detent fell out of the pin the 2nd time I tried to put them on, and one came loose and flapped all over...
I have 2 of them. VERY happy with them! I like a solid engagement, and these do just that. Only weird little quirk is when they are cold they make a squeak on engagement like race clutches do (and they are 50% race type, so that makes sense). Only hear it when I first roll off in the am and...
Heavy engine techs have a tendency to get back injuries. Might be the guy who they were gonna have do it is out for an extended period, or quit. Not the kind of thing they are gonna tell a customer
Just for the record, did my scheduled 3k maintenance on mine yesterday. No sign of water intrusion! (main thing I was concerned about because they were deeply submerged at SMORR!) Fluid looked fine, a reasonable amount of break in dust on the magnets, and catch cans were empty. Pretty...
Thats the combo I have. I have 2" body lift and eibach lift springs. I have zero rub anywhere, and probably could stuff a 42 (if I did i would get Maxxis stickies for trail use only). If you are gonna do this the advice I can give you is don't overthink the gearing! You will want deeper...
I don't see how? My excursion gets 10mpg towing something that heavy, and the Bronco can do 12-13mpg highway if I am careful about managing my cruise. Biggest drawback is the small tank...gotta pay attention to fuel stops!
I have one and I love it! Do yourself a favor tho, and get 2 of the 12.0 batteries. 8.0 or 9.0 are good for about 1.5 air ups. 12 will do 2 full air ups on my 40s from single digits to 37psi. Always start w/a full battery charge!
You use cheap 80w90 for the 1st 200mi, then dump that for break in purposes. Then use the maxima gear lube and change at each oil change interval going forward. I do think that reccommendation is conservative, but I'm gonna stick to it
Key word there being "was". All gone to the crusher now. If I had one that ran, I would be more likely to mothball it. Times change, and we gotta change with em!
I actually thought it was cool on many levels! My favorite part is where he said something to the effect of "we decided not to bother with rear brakes because the rear brakes on these cars don't work anyways". I think if I was gonna do a "portal" riding lawnmower I would use a timing belt...
