    The 2000 GMC Sierra in the photo. The engine is an LQ9 6.0 (345hp/380tq) from a 2005 Escalade. With the camshaft, springs, headers and true dual exhaust It should be somewhere around 400 (crankshaft) horsepower.

    Handicapped/injured detailing

    60 year old transfemoral (above knee) amputee just like Mike, ambulating on a prosthetic limb. Can't squat down so we have to bend at the waist to work on the lower half of a vehicle. This is murder on the back especially with a buffers side to side motion. It's easier sitting on the floor and...

    Pad Cleaning Question

    If I'm short on a specific color/size pad... after washing, I squeeze them out in a towel then spin them on my rotary to dry. That's about all I use my Dewalt rotary for unless I'm doing a cut & buff on fresh paint.

    What can I use to prep new coat of wax?

    I like using Prima Amigo Pre-Wax Cleanser before a fresh wax. It's also a glaze that can actually remove OR fill those light swirls/scratches between corrections. You can apply by hand but a DA is quicker, I usually use my rotary with a gold jeweling pad at about 600 RPM's and it's squeaky clean...

    Review - RaceDeck AccuPark -

    Didn't see this item in the Autogeek store but I'm sure they offer it as they sell RaceDeck flooring systems. Most likely all their racedeck products are drop shipped from Salt Lake City. Looked for some reviews of the Accupark online but couldn't find any. Maybe this review will bring some more...

    Bad Backs & Broken Bones ... Just my luck! 2.0

    Like Mike Phillips I'm also a right transfemoral amputee, walking with an above the knee prosthetic leg. I stepped on a landscaping timber, it rolled and I broke my only (left) ankle. With no good ankle, can't walk on crutches at all. Spent 8 weeks in a wheelchair and had to learn how to walk...
