Anti-seize will make your future self thank your present self. I do a retorque on the truck after a few hundred miles, when I rotate and before a long trip. You will get faster mounting as you go.

The second one with antiseize went great. If I took fewer breaks I’d be faster. Two on the jeep.

Yea those new wheels look slick on there, especially with the other brightwork like the aluminum bumper.

Thanks very much. Can’t wait to get the sliders back to see how it all comes together.

Looks great, big fan!
Thanks. Not that exciting in comparison to the stuff others are up to, but I’m stoked. I was spent by the time the third one was on the jeep. The fourth one is at least off the old wheel. I’ll deal with it after work tomorrow. Then the spare sometime. With fewer ciders, I feel like I’d have finished. Don’t care. Wife and I had a wonderful day.

A good friend held my hand the first set I did. I like to share when I can.

Thanks. I’m pretty comfortable with the mounting after four. The fifth one will wait until another day. I’m tired.

Used it to go pickup one of the kids. To put some miles on the bolts. Spotty rain. Who cares. Brought her a rain coat and blanket. :). 20 miles so far. It rides great. No wheels fell off.
