    Storing my vehicle?

    I'm not going to be driving my T/A for a year, I want to hear all of your tips for preserving my beauty!

    It will be covered outside in MI from Jan-Jan.

    Jack stands? What other kind of prep or maintainance should be done and how often?

    The car will be sitting because I will be in Iraq. Thanks gents.

    Lol im in the same boat but im goin too afganistan. Everyone has there own opinion on storing the vehicle but personaly im puttin mine indoors in a storage facility. As far as jack stands i wouldnt because your car is meant too use the suspension and when you start drivin it again it might squeak and all that good stuff. If your worried bout flat spots i would find some other tires or see if someone can start it once and a while and maybe even drive it. Put some fresh oil in it and some gas saver in the tank and pull the battery.

    Indoors would be better to keep moisture away. Somebody out there should support our troops and their cars while they are T.C.B. overseas. Good LUCK
