Tire rotation info...

For the newer guys especially or the procrastinators among us....

Just rotated my tires after 15,000 miles... I know... way too long... hence the statement above...

FYI - I had used anti seize on both mating surfaces last time and I STILL had to use a sledge hammer to knock the tires free. Only took one good whack, but I shudder to think if I didn't use the slick stuff, how bad it would've been.

SOOoooo.... don't procrastinate and make sure you lube up those mating surfaces... Worst case scenario is your on the side of the road with a flat and you cannot remove your tire.

I do my tire rotations every 3-5k but I've only anti-seized the lugs and everything once when the truck was new. I guess my tires are consistently off every month thats why they never seize to the hub.
