    Washing Outerwear?

    I don't like washing my jacket and pants too much, I'd rather have my waterproof coat stay waterproof. What's the best way NS has found to get stains (rust, assorted dirt) out of outerwear? I've tried dish soap and hot water, no amount of scrubbing seems to work.

    Changing FKS Brakes

    Rocketbox Mounting Length?

    I'm looking to get a rooftop box for my car, but I can't seem to find a few pieces of info. Will a Yakima box fit Thule racks? I assume so Are the brackets on the bottom of the boxes adjustable? My racks spread 41" apart, would a Rocketbox 11 or 16 or a Thule Frontier fit?
