Just purchased a 2001 Aurora Loaded w/ 4.0, spare tire was NG I measured tire well it's about 26.5" wide but only 7.5" deep, the factory tire is 235 55 17. I was going to get a steel 16" rim with 205 x70 x 16 tire may fit, has anyone tried any other rims, and any suggestion on tire size?
Also need to replace drivers seat and rear bench seat, possibly both front door panels (door pulls are a little ruffled) Are any other models compatible. Coolant level light is on, I thought I read some ware that the whole reservoir needs to be replaced is that true?
Thanks for any help?
A little about me a former mechanic had 2 repair shops for close to 15 years, until we built our 1st car wash and have been professionally washing and detailing vehicles past 25 years.
Back in the day was when the local Ma & Pa garage did everything from rebuilding motors to tuneups, wheel alignments all front end work, electrical systems,AC repair from flushing systems and replacing compressors to simple charging. I used to buy freon by the pallets 35lb'ers at a time and went through 2-3 pallets every summer. Now a single 50 lb can of r12 is over $1000 if you can even find it.
Now as far as detailing goes I do everything from polishing headlights or refurbishing (new coat of UV clear coat), leather conditioning (lexol products ONLY). easy way to clean floors seats etc, complete detailing, express detailing, acid rain removal. You name it, I now how to do it. I am OK with scratches but w/o a paint gauge I don't like doing a lot of it. So any questions you can PM me at 555carwash@gmail.com or ask in this general forum.
