Default The "C" word.....lol

CLEANING. The one thing I HATE doing to my truck... lol Tomorrow's gonna be a massive day for the rig. Relocating/grounding my CB antennas, washing, waxing, buffing, and repainting my rockers (because of the pressure washer....), and cleaning out my interior are all in store for her tomorrow. Not only that, but lowering the torsion bars and putting new front brakes on as well. Like I said, it's gonna be a HUGE day for her. Next in store will be exhaust, probably a dumped glasspack (just to keep costs low for now), spark plugs, and hopefully a new interior soon. An extra set of hubs and a coil pack are set aside already, so I'm set with parts for now. I'm really excited to be able to mod and clean her tomorrow. DJ, I know you're gonna get on this as soon as you see the first word. Haha.

So now that my gameplan is set, does anybody have any tips for getting grease stains out of seats/carpeting? Would love to get that... And a better way to hold down my center console other than a bungee cord? That'd be amazing. Thanks fellas!

Oh, and FYI Brinker, Wednesday she's scheduled for a front end alignment. Mechanic's brother had surgery today, and the mechanic is having a valve bypass soon and is in state college on Monday.

I have this oxyclean stuff for vehicle carpeting, but I didn't know if that would work on serious stains
