Why hadn't I thought of that! No movement at all ftw!

I'm a little late to this, but all I've used was synthetic caliper grease from an O'Reilly's in my area.

So far it seems to work; my brakes have not squealed any louder from when I initially posted a few days ago.

Not a bad job, but that oil filler cap looks like it needs a little work -

Nothing a little brake cleaner can't fix!

>>I looked at my car in my garage today.<<

It's dusty. I last washed it Sept. 2019...after a 3100 mile trip.

Since February 2, 2020 I've driven 234 miles and filled it's tank once again, in early June.

I've Gone to grocery store once... in late March...not since then.

I use the car to go to USPS and to Bread Outlet store, that's it for car trips.

Isn't Covid just great !

Actually, I had the opposite idea.

What we need are motor mounts that have a mini "air suspension" setup for the bushings. That way, when it's time to change spark plugs, you push a button, raise the engine, batta bing, done.

Where did you specifically lubed it btw? Got a brake squeak for me that I need to fix real quick.

Works for me, although not sure I'd want to "drive" that.

Never thought I'd be getting this type of item because I've always considered them "rice" and never understood the function of these until now.

The bucket seats in my car was repositioning my seatbelt to slice my neck during driving. So I ended up getting seatbelt pads for my seatbelts
