A little late on posting but I added husky splash guards.

Looks like they're already working

They definitely help!

I'd prefer a lift, or even one of those MaxJax, but I didn't want something that had to be used in the same spot all the time. I have too many vehicles to have to move around to use it. With this I can use it wherever, anywhere in the garage or driveway.

I have the 7000lb extended length model and it isn't light, about 100lbs per unit, but it has wheels on one end and can be rolled around pretty easily, except for the length makes tight turns a bit difficult. The hydraulic hoses have quick connects and don't leak any fluid when connecting or disconnecting. It lifts 24" I think and I use the truck adapters which also give a few extra inches. It's hard to tell, but there is about a full foot under the tires and almost 30" from the ground to the bottom of the oil pan.

I still hate having to get up and down on a creeper, I'm getting too old, lol

Completely agree with preferring a lift. I don't have the space and also have too many vehicles to move around to that one spot anyway. That's why I've been ******* after a set of these for a while. If I had a shop, it'd be a different story LOL Still have a few years before that happens.

Can you still get under the vehicle from the side or do you need to go from either end? I’m working on my neutral safety switch on mine right now and chasing a wire along the frame rail up to the front and looking at those I don’t see them helping me much. I’m getting too old too. It doesn’t help that my driveway isn’t smooth so my creeper doesn’t like to roll on it. The exposed aggregate is a bit too exposed. It’s more like rocky road.

they sure help a lot with the mud and dirt slinging

They really do. I have fluid film sprayed underneath but still wanted to do something to reduce some salt spray on the body. Helps keep it cleaner.

I like how they keep the steps and bottom door jamb clean.

Most definitely!

Me too - they are great at keeping the road unpleasantries off the sides!

There’s a reason for the socket end on ratchet side the plug socket. It makes the perfect length to get #8 out. No other extensions, etc. Try it!

Ha, that's definitely the better way for that plug....all those years I've used an extension and never thought about that. Would have provided a bit more room against the ratchet head.

I used a short extension which is close to that length, but a tad longer.

Thanks for the tip, will surely try that on the next job.

Added a cabin filter to my Tahoe. It's a mod and requires some cutting as the car was not optioned for it. Job is very simple.

I still need to do this.

 

[Sparksalot]

I still need to do this.

It was a pain the first time I did it. The second time, I used a hardback razor blade held by vicegrips, then heated with a small torch.

Like a hot knife in butter!

 

[jared999]

I still need to do this.

It's easy with the right tools. I considered heating my cutting blade up, but that would heat up the entire blade and handle. Didn't seem like the right way. I then used a heat gun and heated sections of area itself that I was going to cut. The blade went through it nice and easy.

Bought my kit off rock auto

Great mod. I got a carbon air filter to go with it. I think it makes a difference vs my Jeep that doesn’t have one and doesn’t have aftermarket support to add one.

I'm just using the crappy filter that came with the mod. I guess a carbon filter would be a good idea.

Can always toss one in next time
