Thanks to the $20 I spent on my Craftsman floor jack in the fall, changing wheels is so easy. Especially with the MINI where both front and back come off at one time! And to think for years I used a stock handcrank jack on my last car when changing wheels each season.
Yes after tuesday’s snow, and wednesday’s shoveling, today we had a sunny and “warm” (28F) break enough for me to move my worn fronts to the back. It had to be done today because, you guessed it, more snow predicted tomorrow and saturday! Now I don’t have to be worried trying to steer with bald tires…they’re in the back now for some fun e-brake turns! 😀
Saturday a bunch of us MINI2ers are planning to meet up for lunch. It will be the first I’ve been to for a while as I’m usually off skiing. I look forward to seeing everyone again…but unfortunately I can’t have my car sparkly clean!
