@rojid Yes, I always use a 1/2 inch torque wrench set to 80 foot pounds to tighten the lock nuts ... with a 1/2 inch wobble extension and 1/2 to 3/4 adapter. If you look at all of the posts on th...

It's a dirty job, that's for sure. It's the grease between the needle bearings that need to be periodically changed. Most of the grease on the outside of the bearings just goes along for the ride and ...

Thanks. Yikes that I noticed the shocked is snapped. I was at track 2 days ago. Thank god It snapped and fell apart in my garage ....

@rojid Yes, you have the right idea in your description above. That is a good video, however for race cars I would only use GKN tripod grease. It is expensive grease, but according to GKN and a kno...

@schneller I start with a single layer of 2” lumber, then add another 2” on top spaced roughly 3’ from start of ramp for a total of 3” of ramp height. The board for the front tire stop is a 1”x6” Cro...

Problem solved, Thank you! Would you recommend using 2x 6 lumber for the ramps? Is that enough elevation to clear the quick jack? It also looks like you have a cross member underneath to position the...
