DIY Wheel cleaning

Hi again,

I use a pnematic trolley jack (£20 from halford) and it is 1) easy to use for lifting and lowering, and 2) more reliable and stable than the manual wind jack in the boot.

I only use jack stands if i am working onthe underneath, checking for damage or corrosion.


Too many mods to list, PM me if the cat needs killing...
