Default best stuff for killing rust

the brand is Loctite... called "extend rust neutralizer"
8oz. plastic bottle... www.loctiteproducts.com


Anywho... I've used this for years, and will continue to do so...

Installed some kijiji 30x9.5 with wrangler rims. Went to replace the bearing, prayed I picked the right rotor style for my 99 and apparently I have the 99.5 with cast ****ing rotors. GRRRRRRRRRRRRR.

Back to napa!~ Has anyone tried to pack grease in the back of the bearing to help prevent water? or is it a hopeless cause?

Did some troubleshooting for my P1698 code. CEL comes on and stays on every so often. Clear it, and its good for another trip or so. Refreshed all the connections and grounds, we'll see what happens. Hopefully not a bad TCM or ECM.

Someone obviously used too much brownie mix and covered the woods again.

If a NEW cap is faulty, (Mexico) swap it out at the store.....

I had the same problem. I tried 3 new radiator caps (2)CST caps, and (1) Stant cap, and they all were too loose.

I ended up bending the tabs on the cap to get it to seal tight................I think it might be an issue with my replacement radiator, and not the caps themselves.......................

Repaired my cruise control with a 12 dollar ebay directional switch. The wires are thicker than the old switch so I ran them outside the steering column. Cruise works perfect.
