My procedure is lift vehicle, support on stands. Remove lug nuts. Beat tire with BFH. It helps to hit both sides of the tire, and to rotate the tire occasionally. If you can put it on a lift, it's a

Depending on what the subsoil is, it may be necessary to compact the subsoil so that the gravel doesn't sink into it. Worst case requires importing a suitable subsoil base before the gravel. I'd also

I've pulled engines both with a crane and a chain fall. I'll never use a chain fall again. On just about everything I've ever seen, the engine has to come forward (or sideways, or back, or all three)

Yes. It is, however, the sort of thing that auto parts places lend. (They're not expensive, but you'll never use it again.) -- David Scheidt dmscheidt@gmail.com

Your favorite tool truck guy sells 12-fluted sockets specifically designed to do just this. I'd be utterly shocked if a tire shop doesn't have a set. Here's a link to a set by Snap-on. http://buy1.sn

The Snap-On catalog lists a special set of tools for late model VWs. Never seen a set, so I have no clue what's different about them. (I've never failed to get a lock nut off using the set I've got,

Oh, yeah. The tool has 12 tapered left-hand spirals. You tap it on with a hammer, put an impact wrench on it, and go crazy. Typically, you need to knock the lug out with a punch. It's pretty well che

Any reason you can't use a hose clamp? You can get the spring-loaded pre-tensioned type with a clip that holds them open until it's removed. That makes it pretty easy to install them in difficult loc

A mid range lift is what you're looking for. They're not commonly sold to hobbyists, because they're not that much cheaper than a four post lift, and you can't use them as a parking space increaser.

As others have said, there's some magic incantation. It may be in the owner's manual. The easiest thing to do may be to go bug the people who didn't turn it off in the first place. They're used to it

The advantage of full width drawers is they hold more. There's no loss of volume to the middle column, and it's easier to fit long things in the big drawers. Of course, at home you probably don't nee
