    If you don't have the remote lube for the clutch linkage, make sure that you get up there and grease it, they will get tight if you don't. There are 2 grease fitting way up on the linkage that are hard to get at if you don't have the remote lube on the frame by the left steer spring.

    If you're running a car over the hood, make sure that you grease the front springs often. The shackle pins will wear out faster with the extra weight on the steer, if let go too long, they'll wear into the spring hangers. We have 7 Pete 379 10 car haulers from 2001-2007's and have changed a lot of spring pins.

    Pete door latches like to stick, when you PM it, squirt a little lube in them. Once they stick, it's very hard to get them working again without replacing them.
