First Tire Rotation!


Here is a shot of my first MINI tire rotation. You can see the 17mm socket for the lugs and various breaker bars and ratchets. The torque wrench is there and my MINI manual says 88.5 foot pounds is the correct torque settting for these wheels.
Note my old Craftsman floor jack which dates back to my MG Midget days. Soon I will share some pictures of that adventure! Long story...
Note...the Red Bull in the picture is not a requirement for MINI tire rotations unless you are my age in which case it is a good idea to have an energy drink around to perform any manual labor....
