  1. As others have said, Snow Foam Lance , 2 Bucket wash method , Clean all panels with isopropyl/ demineralised water mix 80 % water / 20 % iso in a spray bottle. Clay bar (Clay Magic Brand) with dodo juice clay lube Compound polish clean down with iso mix, Swirl remover then clean down with iso mix ....Final Polish/ iso whipe down , Sealant then Wax do not use iso/water with these or you're defeating the purpose. I use Menzerna polishes/sealant followed by Dodo Juice Wax Everytime you wash the car the two bucket method will keep your car swirl free. 2 Bucket method is one bucket with clean water and the other with shampoo, each time you clean a panel dunk your mitt/sponge into clean water before recharging with shampoo. keep changing the clean water dunking bucket regularly to ensure no swirls/scratches. Buy a good RO polisher and get yourself some foam or the newer microfibre pads. I own a Flex Forced rotation polish best investment I have ever made,
  2. Thanks for the insight , Appreciated

    Lowering Fg Ute

    Herrod rear leaf springs (Reversed eye to reduce ride height without reducing ride quality) it's a king spring set to their spec Coilover Front and adjustable body rear shock ... Shockworks have a good coilover setup for $1700 rear herrod leaf is around $1200 from memory This setup will yield an almost sedan like handling. I have Pedders with the Herrod rear leaf atm and not happy at all with the pedders coilovers and I am going down the Shockworks route, with this setup I get no axle tramp what so ever but just want better compliance from the shocks themselves and that's why I am going with Shockworks Brett who has designed these Shockworks coilovers claims that he has done all the R&D for the RSPEC GT Ute and Sedan and has developed many of Fords dampening and shock setups from the BF through to the FG. There is more info on Shockworks on the AFF forums. Hope this help mate.
  4. I did not have any intention to offend ! All I want is a good set of shocks ... If the way I asked offended you that was not my intention. I don't go around offending people when asking for advice/opinions. I think the text was misconstrued but if I had of asked face to face you would have understood me. The whole idea of you wanting to drag this on and ... Lets ask some other readers shall we? What do you guy's think of this? To me, this post makes the assumption is that I might not tell it like it is. narcissism much ?
  5. It was a pretty straight forward question from the start and did not warrant anything other then an honest reply but clearly ....
  6. Are you all there ? I was generalising about people in general who purchase a product and then say it's good just becuase they don't want to admit to themselves that it's a waste of money. I was merely asking for a honest unbiased opinion... obviously it was a bad purchase or someone is a lil touchy !
  7. Any chance of an in cabin video sitting at 100 - 110 kmh ? Mine Drones like nothing else and this is with two hot dogs and a Hurricane stainless rear muffler
  8. We wont be able to feed, clothe, defend or shelter ourselves soon. ! what a great nation ... The ex ww2 war veterans would be so proud ! Tariff everything foreign to the hilt ....
  9. Hey nice setup, how do these handle on rough roads ? Please be honest and unbiased , nothing annoys me more then when someone buys something and says it's great becuase they own it. Are these Harsh on country roads and unsettling ?
  10. Wait till you can afford them, it's better to wait and pay once and be happy.
  11. I have had 4.2L 253 and 5.0L 308 Holden's to a 202 red motor turbo in the late 90's and then went to a 400hp STi and then my XR6T and now my Coyote. I can honestly saw it's one of my all time favourites, no wonder the Coyote Ford Racing crate motors are starting to become the new go to crate motor for retro fits instead of the 5.7 chev. Test drive one, preferably a tuned one... you won't be disappointed mate !
