Ok, I managed to find this testors paint today, now for the horrible question. How do I use it? Do I just stick the brush in there? Do I need to water it down?

Dip the brush in, brush the paint on. It's not rocket science lol

gotta find a cheap spare tire. Got a 300 mile road trip at the end of the month and I'd rather not be stuck in the middle of nowhere without an extra tire. Hope I can just find a cheap steel one.

I would say jump on craigslist, always a ton on there, but in AK, who knows.

Replaced the front driver side hub. It took a propane torch and a hammer to get the bolts out but overall it wasnt too bad. Be sure to use a six sided closed end wrench though.

PO didn't and if he was near I would have beat him. Long job but got the bolts out.

Yeh I lost a lot of life on one of my tires because noone could get it aligned and it took me figuring it out.

Thank you guys for the tip on the Testors paint. After I got the problem assorted (I bought bad paint), I finally got the last coat of it on there, so tomorrow is the final touch ups and it is ready to be re-installed tomorrow. I will probably be doing my air intake thing as well.
