Yes I do store the car for winter . Still have it out right now . I was thinking that would be the best time to try this . If anyone that's done this before & is close by Mishawaka Indiana & would be willing to help me out that would be great . Like I said I don't think my back would let me do this job ! Hoping to have some good weather yet to keep driving the crossfire ! In Indiana ya never know but suppose to warm backup !
