There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

....See what's in your car trunk, you might have a small scissor jack in there......I would be very careful if you do this spinning VIA the motor. If it falls off......VERY BAD things are going to happen, even if the wheels are chocked. Also the NANNY doesn't like it...... So only IDLE it........My advise is turn the tire by hand ......jmho....Mike :thumbup:

Make sure the ignition is OFF if you turn just the front or back wheels by hand - the Nanny gets really upset if one end reports turning & the other end doesn't! :thumbup:

I have that same roller from Harbor Freight. It worked great for the two wheeler i had, but i would have to buy another one for the Spyder. I just idle the :spyder: set the parking brake, wipe the wheels, move it a little forward or backwards set the parking brake, and wipe the part that was on the ground and i'm done. :clap:

If someone gets this, don't forget the 20% off coupons that can be found most anywhere.

Normally they will be in most any car or motorcycle magazine. If you cannot find one, shoot me an address, and I can mail you a couple if you would like. They are in my local paper every sunday.
