Final Report

Ok, here's the scoop from Jessie. Nothing major, but a bit spendy. Ouch.

1) Inspection is done. This includes bearings repacked, axel checked, tires checked, propane leak fixed (needs new tank). $350

2) Tires are good for at least 5000 miles.

3) Standing jacks good.

4) Spare tire. Holding off on a rim to save some money. $140

5) To change a tire I bought a bottle jack from Kragen. This is to be used with the standing jacks, and a block off wood under the jack if needed. $12

Tip: Online prices for Kragen are a bit cheaper, print out the page and they'll honor that price.

6) Hitch in stock for the Tacoma. $285 + labor

7) Waiting for truck to fit correct wiring harness. $125-ish + labor

8) Replaced saftely chain (only had one, and it was too small) $50


To-do:
• get a block of wood
