yesterday after getting back from pool with the GF, i was bored, so i decided to piddle with the Ranger. Its beeen annoying me seeing the black stuff on the backside of the rim through the spokes. So i took on the task of taking each wheel of, and spraying it with Awesome, and tackiling it with a scotch pad. also took Awesome and a brush to the back of tire. they tuned totally blackish brown when i sprayed the cleaner on them! While i had the back wheels off, i rattlecanned the drums, they look new again! to the pics

Cool, may have to try that stuff...

You should really look at jack placement...where you have it in the first pic does NOT look safe at all.
 
You want to do mine next? :icon_twisted:

What was the product used?

Thats the recommended jacking point for tire removal/change.

Seriously? I guess if that's the case, never mind...
