When conducting BMW engine rebuilds, the application of assembly lube on wear surfaces is crucial for protection during initial startup. Red Line's proprietary formula offers exceptional safeguarding with 3x greater film strength compared to standard molybdenum disulfide assembly lubricants. Notably, it serves as a superior corrosion inhibitor for long-term storage and avoids filter clogging issues common with some assembly lubes.

Many BMWs, especially older models, feature pinch welds where the floor pan meets the rocker. These run from wheel-well-to-wheel-well and are an especially appealing jacking location with one shortfall - jacking on an unprotected pinch weld will frequently cause an unsightly bent and damaged weld. This damage is a quick to rust spot, being located on the lowest point of the vehicle and no longer being covered by protective ecoat, paint, or undercoat.

This Schwaben Pinch Weld Protector is designed to fit between any floor jack cradle and bottom of vehicle. It features a specially designed slot to straddle pinch welds, keeping jack from crushing or bending the pinch weld. The bottom side of protector is designed to fit any jack as well as the Schwaben (T#363164) aluminum jack stands. 

Extruded and designed in USA. Pad is 3" wide & 1" tall.

For all of us who grew up with lug bolt-equipped cars, it can be a pain to re-install wheels. With no studs to guide the wheel onto the hub, you're left searching for that perfect alignment all while blindly trying to find a lug bolt to thread into place. Not a pleasant experience.

Future Classic's wheel hangers allow you to thread two guide pins into the hub to make re-installing wheels a breeze. We have created a guide pin for each of the most popular thread pitches, each size features a ridged body to prevent the wheel from falling off the hub once it is seated. A perfect accessory set for every tool kit.
