Help Wanted someone with experiance with wheel bearings. We have the Warner
Tool and will act as helper and gopher.
In exchange for parking, electrical hookup, & 3 meals a day (might even buy
the Beer). I will also WASH & WAX (you supply your choice of wax)
your GMC.
If you are traveling Hwy. 95 in Northern Idaho (Lewiston area) or going to
the Western States Rally in Newport, Wash. (Diamond Lake). You won't be far
away.

I have heard that if the tool does not get used, it can get rusty. I am keeping
mine in a sealed plastic bag inside a Sears tool box under the fridge until I
need it again. By then, I will have a new driveway.

That last one really grabbed me! I am on my way.......but, did I mention
that I am severely mechanically challenged?

FWIW: I use and carry for that purpose, a set of 1/4" 10" X 10" 6061
flat Aluminum plates. they make a solid pad for jacks and/or jackstands.
No telling when you will have the misfortune of a flat.
I carry them in the LP tank compartment. Light weight but strong.

Yes, I needed to jack the front wheel in the Keys...
The jackstand sunk into the ground..Probably the
only 8square inch's of soft soil in all the Keys.LOL
