Hey Tom,

I?m sure you love your QuickJack as much as I love mine! I?m jealous; I have been trying to get home to my Z since April, but COVID jacked everything up (no pun intended [emoji38]) and I can?t travel. Hopefully this crap with be gone soon so I can go home to work on my car too. Enjoy!! 🤙🏼 Aloha!

Love my QJacks.

Re: TB removal and then some!!!
 

I sure do Craig....as mentioned....there is plenty of room under there....the fun begins tomorrow....pulling all 4 wheels for a total cleaning and checking the rear 2 tires for slow leaks.....might take over to NTB which is close to me for them to check out....hopefully you will get home soon and work on your ZR-1....stay safe and safe travels when you can travel....:):)

Yes.....loving mine so far....IMO...a great investment.....:):)

Another day....and more progress being made... the 94 is on Quickjacks and the 74 is on wheel dollies....when I finish the 94....I can then slide the 74 over on that side of the garage and continue work....already slid the 74 over a few inches this evening and it really makes a difference in the additional space that it provided....the dollies work great....
Plenty of room between the 94 and the 74...
Now the fun begins.....[emoji16][emoji16]Attachment 12886Attachment 12887

Took off all 4 wheels and cleaned 2 of them....still in decent shape for originals...cleaned up the insides somewhat and debating on whether or not to repaint the insides...thinking since I already off...now would be the time to do so.
I image a shade of Aluminum paint would work or maybe a Silver...has anyone refinished the insides and if you did....what did you use???
Some pics....[emoji16][emoji16]

Tom ,
You might consider trying aluminum brightener like the truckers use

Re: TB removal and then some!!!
 

Have good luck using red Scotchbrite pads and Simple Green to clean up wheel barrels. I never painted any though... pretty easy to maintain once you get them cleaned up with regular car washes.

Re: TB removal and then some!!!
 

Hello Phil,
I did end up using a few different products during my experimental phase... lol....seems like the most effective for me at least in removing stains was the Blue Magic polish and the green Scotch Brite pad...
They are decent....2 down...2 to go...

Pic #1...the experiments...
Pic #2...front wheel redone...
Pic #3...inside of front wheel....not perfect...but an improvement...
Pic #4...rear wheel finished...
Pic #5...inside of rear wheel....Attachment 12908Attachment 12909Attachment 12910Attachment 12911Attachment 12912
