I had the same issue trying to loosen mine with a wrench and socket. An impact driver did the trick.

Sounds like this is what you’ve got: Busted ignition - ignition cylinder rod replacement - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/busted-ignition-ignition-cylinder-rod-replacement.57050/. Does it spin freely without much resistance?

I think that MB Quart set is going to be tough to fit without a custom spacer. With a 6" mounting diameter, it's too big to use the factory spacer/mount, which is about a 5.75" opening and provides over an inch of added mounting depth. Pic #2 measures just under 2" mounting depth to the rolled...

After 250k miles, the headlight reflectors were dull or worse. One had unsealed and the reflective material was deteriorating for a couple of years now. Took advantage of a 35% local dealer holiday sale and bought two new headlight housings. Just before the headlights arrived, the windshield...

Another good road condition resource: Road Conditions - Saline Preservation Association - https://forum.salinepreservation.org/road-conditions-162656 Coldest night in DV for me was at the Racetrack in early November and it almost reached single digits. I think the advice being given about cold...

Got around to installing it today after using an extra can of Monstaliner on the interior and exterior. I was hoping it would give it a slightly rubbery feel (it didn't), but I like the way it looks and it should be durable. Install was easy since I had the console apart for a HAM rewire. It's...

Just received mine. Great construction and lock and I look forward to installing it soon. Question: If I wanted to dress it up with black paint, what did you use in post #1 and how has it held up?

Peerless makes a lot of different sizes and can be delivered from Amazon next day.

I've driven to CA ski areas hundreds of time in snowy conditions in 30 years, always with 4wd and almost always with BFG ATs. I have never once been made to install chains, but dozens of times been asked by CHP if I am carrying them. Only been asked to see them once. When I was younger, I would...

It looks like a different contour at the lugs, but I would check with Icon first. They were easy to reach and had center cap fitment info on hand.

I pass through from time to time and will let you know if that happens soon.

Full set sold. Two singles still available if anyone needs another for a spare.

Yes, still available.

***Disregard, didn’t realize this was the aluminum Dissent thread!*** I’ll give you the least robust solution if you need something quickly. I attached a wire to the back because I didn’t trust it, but it hasn’t budged in over two years, including high speed washboard, high speed highway...

I don’t have plans to be near SLO at present. Possibly north county SD this weekend. PM me if that might work.
