    Thanks for the suggestions. I ended up having to scrape some of the locktite out of the hole and then took a putty knife and hammered it between the spacer and rotor. Was a PITA, but they are off and now I have my .75" spacers on. Hopefully that will cure some of the rubbing I was having and it brought my tires a bit in under the flares more.

    When I got new rims Americas tire, they had a hell of a time getting mine off.They came to me and said we might have to replace your studs as we cant break the lug nuts loose on your spacers. i walked out and pointed to the lock tight and said hit them with a Impack Gun and then a hammer and break loose its lock tight and only a few weeks old.They were worried that it would strip the threads.But he did It with me stranding there and they came off no problem.sometimes you just need a little tap of a BFH.LOL

    Funny. I have that amp rack. It's been sitting in my garage since I came across it. :p

    Anyways... This is what happens when you get a wild hair up your ass and have a giant shelf made from MDF that you have no use for anymore.

    Ah, CT. I remember the good 'ol days. The first Sacto meet, Garnet doing burnouts in 4wd in the FBImini parking lot, Mikey bumping porno at 10 am on a Sunday morning. Then the later years with reminding Kaman how pussy whipped he was, hanging out at Brett's, hittin' switches in Lennie's X-runner.

    Bums me out that a lot of those folks didn't end up over here, but the atmosphere is definitely different on this site. I feel like Randy is the only one that's still there hanging on to what's left. I really wish that Jeff hadn't sold the site. But hey, on the bright side I ended up over here with you fine folks! :D

    I really do miss the old CT. Thanks for reminding me MJ. :smack:

    Hopefully you cleaned threads after. I didn't clean mine and later on blew up about 6 total studs. Finally cleaned all threads and cleaned the threads on the nuts and no issues

    haha yea CT is old school man. Bret is actually on here, but everyone else, idk. Some of the meets were pretty crazy. The first ever time I shot a firearm was at a meet where this one guy had this skeet catapult hooked up to his hitch.
