Car storage for winter
How does everyone store their car for winter? Full detail, car cover, battery tender, and jack stands? Are jack stands worth it?....side note, I shouldn't be storing because I'm awd. Just have to wear the current set of summer tires nitto invo.
Detail Battery tender Stabil (fuel stabilizing) Car cover Jack stands (necessary?, thoughts?): prevents wear on suspension I believe.

My car needs a detail from the paint chips and driving I did this year. I'm probably going to throw a cover over it, battery tender, and detail so it's ready for spring.

You left out fuel stabilizer. I'd just maxout the sidewall pressure rating and let it sit on the ground. Leaving it on stands that long could possibly stress some of the bushings. Flat spotting tires goes away quickly.
My 2 cents. |
