Was wondering if you were around...

I LOVE your wagon. I had been admiring it in the Gallery with the other wheels on it.

Any recourse with that shop that overtorqued your lugs? 'Cause that's a flippin' shame.

Swap out your door handles!

Impact can be used to remove them, but I don't even do that, I just use a big ass breaker bar, then a torque wrench once they are hand tight on re-install when I rotate the wheels.

yeah, my great-grandmother had passed away, so i took it to a little tire shop to have them balanced and rotated before my road-trip.....

dropped the car off and ran other errands while it was being done....

needless to say i didn't find out bout' the impact use til' after the fact....

also screwed up the passenger side front fender as well.


the in-laws thought it would be nice way to repay me for the garage i built for them a couple years back
