[QUOTE="hwcurtice, post: 1327216, member: 17044"] Got some of that Chain and Cable Lube from NAPA today. Unwound the cable all the way. Reached to the end of the driveway. Seems shorter that way. I thought it was longer... Anyway, I sprayed the lube on the cable, nice foam job, and let it sit for a bit to work its way in. I also tried to spray some into the ends of the drums to see if that would help too. Well, wound it back up, with just a little tension to make sure it was tight on the drum. I then sprayed a little more of the lube on the cable as it sat in order to protect it from the elements. I think I'm going to have to do this every time I wash my truck just to make sure it keeps from rusting. Interesting, there is what looks like red spray paint about 10 feet from the end of the cable, close to the drum. Um any ideas as to why? I'm also going to write CSI and find out if they have user instructions on-line, as I didn't get any from the guy who installed it for me. So, thoughts? [/QUOTE]
