September Truck must haves

[IDVortex]

back to the “tree across the road” scenario; if you’re sawing (hand or chainsaw), throw in a couple of small wedges (and preferably a small axe vs a hammer to pound them in)- this could save you huge aggravation!

And be mindful of how the tree is laying across the road when you start to cut it...

I had a tire go flat on top of a mountain in the mud last year. A good few pieces of plywood would have helped. I was trying to find a flat rock to put my jack on so it didn't just sink in the mud. Also, check your spare.

Amen to the breaker bar. Last fall, had to jump up and down on the tire wrench that came with my Jeep Wrangler Sport S to get the lug nuts loose. Thank goodness I had found a rather level spot to change the tire.

Lemme guess ... you had new tires install?

My SOP after having new tires installed, is to go home and break loose all the lug nuts and hit them with a torque bar
