Preparing for an upcoming road trip, full size spare on top, gathering extra extra fluids, and just giving her the run through. Just gotta make it up to NH, then to the peak of mount Washington and back down lol...maybe some light wheeling too.

How'd you stop the squeaking where the seat back locks into place? My squeaks all the friggin' time!

Not sure what the other guys do, but white lithium grease works great on stuff like this. Since it's in your interior though, you might try spraying it into a rag and dabbing it on... that way you don't get grease all over your interior. Be careful which one you use too, some white lithium greases have a pretty strong odor.

As in the timing chain? How'd you do that?
