What happened to those 1L gear oil "bags" I used to see on the show? I imagine those are amazing for filling rear ends and transmissions with gear oil. I've never seen them in America, but they seem more economical, easier to ship in bulk, and obviously easier for the consumer. Not to mention they would be better for recycling or disposal due to the reduced size when empty.

Are the superpro control arms shorter then oem? How does that affect handling?
@BennysCustomWorks
@BennysCustomWorks 2 жыл бұрын
The superpro arms are factory geometry. Lowering the car will add camber so adding the camber kit to the upper arms corrects that.

@@BennysCustomWorks Thanks! In the video it looks like they're shorter, and I figured they might be to allow for the spacers for the camber adjustment

I always thought the "hang your caliper" thing was a bit of a workshop fable. Brake lines are designed to deal with 70+ bar of line pressure, a couple of kilos of caliper hanging off them should make no difference to them unless they are already shot.

Benny, centimetres is a unit used by dressmakers. In the mech/steel trades we use mm and m as units. I learnt this valuable lesson 25 years ago when a boilermaker told me "we are not making fkn dresses". Just a heads up.

Ugh, still jealous that y'all get Falcons. They won't sell them in the states. I'm guessing they don't want to eat into their own pickup sales. Great work though. Love seeing others keep the quality high.

Wagons are more on the Sedan side than Ute which is more like the Pickups, 2 sections the body and tray, as a wagon that body goes all the way to the end, more heavy-duty/carry load than most Sedans hence the Leafs.
