    *Get that 4L-Slippery serviced ASAP and throw 25Oml of Lucas Oil Trans Stop Slip Stabilizer in it while your at it with the new trans oil otherwise she not lasting long. Already sounds like the 1st to 2nd is slipping a bit.💯*

    hey mate definitely a good idea to wipe over the headlight with some isopropyl alcohol and then apply some headlight sealant on there so they dont go foggy again; love this series

    I recently tried the Headlight restoration kit from Autobarn. They turned out like new. Comes in a small box with sand paper and everything you need. About $50. Also comes with the sealer to keep them looking good.

    Could have done without the guy in the green balaclava, I fast forward through that whole bit he was so obnoxious.
    It’s common to run 275/30 r20 on the rear with 245/30r20 on the front and will fit those rims way better.

    I put the same rims on my Monaro yesterday. Rolled guards and managed to fit 265 Potenzas on the back and 245 front's. You should try 265 or 275s on the ute. Will give it a tougher stance
