They're pressed in, not screwed despite the torx head on em.

They press in. The torque head is just to fool you. Seriously.

You make me glad I never joined the armed forces. Geez.

I have one at the house. It lost a wheel but otherwise works. My kids are coming to church with me so I don't think I'll be up at the JY by 12. I'll shoot you a text or you can just come over and use the power washer. LMK.

So apparently my wife made plans for me today and forgot to tell me. I have to go over her parents place and help her dad now. I'm out for today. Sorry guys but Happy Wife = Happy Life.

Classic, I'll bring that switch up to you one day this week.

yeah, cut the bolt down and slip the puller over the end of the bolt. Works well.

That's cool man, family always comes first. Just give me a heads up when you plan on heading up this way. I might be able to meet you, depending on when and where.

It's one of those relationships where you are all in, or don't waste your time! Lmao.
This thread is almost a full time job.
