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 !

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.

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

I lubed all possible contact points where the pad meets the caliper assembly, and I even went as far as to lube the pad clips themselves. Can't say this is a guaranteed solution because my car is just now starting to squeal again. Probably a result of me running Hawk HP+ pads though, which according to other forums squeal like a motherfucker), so I'm not gonna worry too much about it anymore (until maybe when I switch to steel brake lines in the future). |
