    Check that Spare.

    Checking the tire pressure in the tires before the next trip, and I thought I'd check the spare since I had not checked it before. Yeah, I know.

    50 PSI instead of the 80 PSI it is supposed to be, so it is a good thing I checked. And the way they had the tire loaded on it, it had to be lowered to check the tire pressure. That's when I saw their handiwork on the underbelly. Instead of a nice round hole for the cable to go through, the factory put a big star cut in the underbelly.

    Nice, huh?

    Just had to repair a mobile tech's temporary gorilla tape patch job. Used a piece of corroplast (like a political sign or buy some from HD or a white crawfish tray) and Alex Max (really sticky stuff). Let it dry for a few days and hit it with black rattle can. Road tested for 4100 miles, no issues.

    Here's a link to the sealant/adhesive https://www.dap.com/products-project...icone-max-w-d/

    I added a TPMS sensor to our spare so I can monitor it along with the ones on the ground. WE have the TireTraker TPMS system. And I agree with Jim. Flip that spare over so it's easier to check next time.
