Awesome! One leg of the trip done. Now you will have company for the rest of the way. Enjoy the Ride for Kids to support the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation

Dealers here when I was buying wanted $1000 for set up fee. Found the dealer I bought from he asked me why they wanted a $1000 when all they do is check fluids and tires etc and put on the mirrors

Just a word of advice for anyone that hasnt crossed the border. Make sure all your perscriptions or even over the counter meds are in original containers and not in anything thats not identifiable. Might save a hassel

Sorry just couldn't help it you left your self wide open

Unless your @maverick5990 and your muffler blew apart and the women cant hear your pickup line

That's bullshit. Would have been so much better if you had used a 3/16" bit.
Really though, good pro tip.
I am going to use a 4mm bit for mine

My next mod. Every time I look at mine the moisture seems to be getting worse.

Would the graphite act like a polish and shine the metal gears....which could cause the belt to slip?
I would think the dirt and dust would do this much quicker than the graphite. The grime is way more hurtful to the gears than anything but we can't control that unless you spend all day asking stupid questions on the forum instead of riding and enjoying the ride.

Way to go now Phils head is going to swell even more Great mod for sure

Never called them with the sling, but we have CAA Canadian Automotive Association which is the same.

@rabtech, sounds like you have a good one for sure. The sound from my belt has always been there. It is a different pitch than the gear humm. It changes in tone when you let off the gas pedal and also changes in pitch with variations of speed. The sound is a squealing high pitch. Our roads up here where I live have a lot of dust on them due to farming operations so it doesn't take long to get dirty. This is just something that I thought of when I seen the bottle sitting in the back of my toolbox and thought what the hell it can't hurt as it's just a dry powder but very slick when applied to a surface. So far so good but time will tell how long it lasts.

That i am not sure of. I can not see why it wouldnt be available possibly autozone or such. Just a dry graphite lubricant powder

I tried something that might help some that have a squealing belt. I try to keep mine as clean as possible and have taken it off numerous times and scrubbed it in the sink and washed and scrubbed the teeth on both gears making sure they are as clean as I could get them. Doesn't last long and the belt seems to start squealing again. Anyways I was looking for something in the shop and I came across a bottle of graphite powder that we use to use as a dry lubricant when assembling heavy equipment and such and I thought hey I wonder what this would do to the belt. I cleaned everything real good and dusted the teeth on the gears and the belt and put it back together. Took it out for a few hr ride and it was really quite. This is a dry powder so it won't attract dirt. Even the wife commented on how much quieter it was. I guess time will tell but so far I am happy and very optimistic on this.
