    Silly me...I thought I would remove the lug nuts with a breaker bar and cheater pipe.

    First time I changed a tire on one of these was when I was a dumb private. Didn't know about the reverse threads and my battle just stood there while I struggled. When I changed the tire on the 818 recently I was glad to have the torque multiplier with me. I bought the impact right after that.

    3rd Battery and Isolator

    That would be a bad idea since he is wanting to install radios that are also grounded through the antenna system. Tie into the first battery and save yourself sending your radios in for repair.
