Rotating tires

I did my first wheel rotation today. Yes, i rotated in the 5th, of course. I took the 5th and put it on the driver's rear. The driver's rear went to the passenger front. The passenger front when to the driver's front. The driver's front went to the passenger rear. the passenger rear became the fifth.

I cleaned each wheel and the jeep as i pulled each wheel off. There definitely was funk from-unda. It's good to do this. I think it would be good to go wheeling just before you rotate wheels. That way you can inspect and clean after a major off-road excursion. Hey, major off-road excursions about every 5K is good times.

A little TLC was reasuring that the drivetrain is in good shape.

  1. Nice man. That sounds like a great rotation plan. I can only rotate Front to Back b/c of the directional tires. With a performance alignment, that wears the tires out on the inside pretty quick.
