    My dad used to use gasoline on a rag back in the day for tar. Then wipe it clean with soap and water. I'm sure it wasn't the greatest for the clear coat though...

    I put Mountain bike grips on my brake lines to protect them from rubbing on the Dakar pack brackets, and then I put fuel line on my brake lines to protect them from rubbing the bolts that hold my sliders on. Also received my PCV valve for my next maintenance bundle. A very easy swap for big time peace of mind.

    I have a HS 3 leaf but that retainer thing your line is rubbing on, I drilled out the mount holder for the line that originally attached to the overload and fit the bolt through that. So the line still runs through it's original holder, Now it's just attached to the AAL retainer. It may work for you maybe not. I thought it was a pretty cool idea I found out.

    both sides (2 mounts, 4 bolts, 2 brackets). I thought it was one for 65$ and thought that was unreal but its a package of 2.

    Good to know. That’s how I planned on mounting my HAM radio. Thanks for letting me know I was like “$65 for one is pretty steep”

    Did the HIR backup light mod thanks to this thread by @crashnburn80
    Ordered a three pack of the 35W bulbs here. Definitely an improvement over stock, but I think the increased draw of the new bulbs is overwhelming the wiring harness.

    Also shot some fluid film in behind the light fixtures while they were out
