    Fallow don't mind the rain. Reds not so much. Misty drizzly stuff and after rain everyone is out 'cos they seem to like the dressing on their salad. True story.

    DMAX have their issues, I think the latest ones have an issue with the front upper control arms which causes excessive front tyre wear. But they have the mighty 4JJ3 engine. Out of those two...

    Dealers these days often make more on the finance part of the deal than the actual car sale. Depends on what level/price of cars we are taling about. Cash isnt always king. They love trade ins in...

    Pippi has just turned 1yr old, was responding to recall and hand signals, time to take her for a walk in the "wild". Sticks to dad like glue, command given obeyed like lightning. Oh so happy to be on...

    It is a feel thing. Gunsmiths dont seem to use torque wrenches but mortals do. First make sure the holes and screw threads are clean. Then lubricate with a light oil and wipe off /out as much as...

    The other point is try to end up with all of the screws at the same torque with all of the caps with the same gap on each side and front to back. Now we getting technical haha

    My 10c and rule of thumb is that 1000 foot pound of energy is where the optimal projectile opening kinda sits/finishes...yes you can do it with less but you face pass through etc....if you are...
