    Roof Baskets Anti-Theft

    Roof racks are usually under lock and key. I live where the doors are unlocked and the keys left inside but that doesn't mean stuff isn't stolen. Is it common that roof baskets are stolen? I'd hate to lay down hundreds and have the thing jacked. Are there any security measures for them besides...

    Asaspades93 "Stormie" build thread

    I like the paint along the side to protect the doors. I keep thinking of doing it but time and inexperience with body painting pushes the thought away.

    Is this bad..?

    That should be a stock radiator. 287,00km. Just I've been told that this is just some small wear and tear, no damage done. But when you look at that it just seems awful. I'll just the coolant colour in a bit. Most things in my truck have been replaced, pump ect. The Radiator has never had...

    The worst of car chips

    Years abuse in the rocky Canadian north has taken its toll on my car seriously. It's taken days to slowly restore the paint on my car but there are two areas that seem beyond repair. The two tabs under the headlights are severely chipped, worse in real life. I don't think touch up can fix this...

    loud squeeling when turning hard

    Because of the issue it's already become a habit not to turn sharp, somtimes you just need a tiny bit more on a turn. The power steering fluid has been changed, cleaned of bubbles ect. I'll give it the soap trick, if not I'll tighten it and if that fails get a new one.
