Made some cup holders for the Deuce couple days ago. I have some strong magnets I pulled out of a BMW electric water pump holding it down on the floor.
Man I'm disappointed. I read all of this and was gonna write in what id do, and it hits me. Cant make the trip this year. I was gonna recommend to pull the outer wheels and put them in the back. Boom, you just made four spares for yourself. Well best of luck to you next year.

Here's my fuel pump before and after. Removed the pump from the bracket and then performed electrolisis on it. Some wire brushing and cleaner got it "ok". So then I sand blasted it, and reinstalled everything.
