I had to lift front wheels off of the ground, so I decided to clean the rear inside of front rims by spinning the wheels by hand while using a clean rag to remove dirt.
When you say service jack, do you mean floor jack that can go under the engine (crossmember if there is one). I have not looked under mine yet (2LT) and was wondering if a floor jack can be used to jack the whole front end up at the same time? Also what size wrench for the top mounted oil filter? Thanks in advance for the info.
