These are Castor Bases that you put castors on(derrrr). Use on tiled floors so things don't move around. Small diameter one cost $2.50, larger one was $3.95.
I'm going to use one of them on the crown of my hydrualic jack so it doesn't bend the pinch weld each time I jack up the car.

i bent my pinch weld the other day. do these rubber thingy work?

need to get some from clark rubber. do you put the small one inside then the big one on top?

thanks

[stevo_12v]

Yup, that's right. Cheaper way is to use a block of wood with a channel cut through it.

Feels SO MUCH BETTER than the stock gear knob.

That's what she said! ))) Hey it is normal to get nobs in the morning mate! We all do... or at least the majority of us do! ))

Hey mate, loving the update.

Regarding the oil changes. I thought it was advised to change the magnetic plugs when you're doing the oil change, but your one looks fine after the clean up.

Was I just misinformed?

[stevo_12v]

I believe that applies for the oil pan plugs. Those ones aren't magnetic. You do not throw the diff/transmission plugs out!! lol
