Default Perfect Lifting Puck
Just a heads up. I was at HF and saw these.

On sale now for $3.99 ea. Until 5/11/09. Strong magnet that clings to the frame. Perfect fit. Just remove the bolt. 3/4" thick. Magnet, I bet, is strong enough to reprogram the TPSs.

Nice find, but one little problem, the cut out for the puck is three and a half inches and these measure 4 inches.

It fits the front cutout with no issuse. The rear cutout also is no issue as it has full frame contact at the cutout, just slightly inboard, touching the body. Works great.

But, can you reprogram your TPSs with the hockey puck?

This is a multi-tool. You can even put the bolt back in and use it as a Ground Block for your welder.
