    OK who was it that said they had some sort of car bidet attachment for their pressure washer coming in, and can I come over to use it??

    I just looked under mine to locate some real bad squeaking and good lord it's dirty. Seems to be some loud squeaking coming from the leafs or shock, can anyone advise if this is something to be legit worried about or do I just need to clean that bad boy up somehow?

    WD40 in the leafs will fix you right up. Dirt/Mud/Dust get in there and makes for some crazy loud squeaking.

    I keep a can of spray graphite in my truck just for the leaf springs. Last time I used it was a couple weeks ago and even after Bastrop last week still no squeaking. I'll give an updated after today's trip back to Bastrop.

    Bastrop was a helluva time yet again. Nothing broke and had one get stuck. Popped my new strap's cherry.. buddy got high centered and almost got him out of it with a few yanks.. until he found out his parking brake was on.. then rolled right out of it:facepalm:

    It won't let me vote twice.
    How are we supposed to rig the competition if they won't let us pad the votes? :annoyed:
