Knowing you, you've probably got it all figured out. Was just wondering.

Ugh sorry to hear, ppl are such idiots that they have to break stuff they don't own or try to steal stuff so annoying

Torsion axles need special handling when jacking, right? What is that special handling?

Wicked quoted the wrong post. He meant to quote the previous post about a camper being broken into.

Close the little clamp a couple of clicks so less solution is used each flush by restricting it.

Now that I have them- next I need to figure out what to do. A downside to these wheels/tires is that I can only go to a commercial tire shop that has a cage or something since they're 125psi tires.

I looked at that clip and if I remember correctly it just is closed or open, I don't remember it having middle positions, but I could be wrong,...I'll check it tomorrow, but the 50/50 solution worked just fine

Yes look closely at how that clamp functions.
You'll see what I mean. [emoji6]

Just tighten the retaining nut a little until it stops. Should be a 9/16 wrench or nowadays 14mm.

Congrats Wicked but all of this on April 1st? Suspicious. Did you pop the question today? If it's real did your future wife not mind getting engaged on April Fools day?
