Removing wheels for paint

[Charles in SC]

Sorry the jack has already sold. It went for 34.99

I got the fronts off with one of the 62:1 gear reduction units, worked really well. Didn't damage the nuts at all. Once off I figured out to strip the wheels with the needle scaler, which took them to bare metal in about 15 minutes each, after multiple other things tried. Primed painted and reinstalled easily. Also tightened slack adjusters a flat or two per the manual. Rears should be no problem. 20t air assist bottle jack does wonders after it's on the ramps. Still moving forward Charles. Reinstalling wipers tomorrow with stainless hardware and scrubbing roof for last part of painting exterior.

Always like the manual recommended the wheel turning to check for a drag when adjusting. All said and done the 1/2" to 3/4" slack on the rod was pretty nice at a hair over a quarter turn backed off from tight.
I think i need to get a air jack its definitely going on the list!

have a good day there
