    Mate, I don’t want to sound like a boring old man but those globes suit it fine in my opinion. With a bit of polish on the alloy they would look sexy as hell. But that’s just my opinion emoji23.png

    Yeah & just get some wider tyres with raised white lettering👍

    I definetly will start the YouTube channel.

    Just another question.

    Where do you recommend to get the exhaust system from? Does it have to be custom fabricated or can I buy pre made ones? And what extractors do you recommend?

    Hi-tech exhaust in Sunshine, Duane does a great job & isnt too expensive👍


  5. I didnt check it when i took it off i just saw fluid dripping out the hardline & was excited, im guessing the flex hose was blocked cos it was bone dry at both ends & i did the job at my brothers cos my trolley jack is fucked too now & i just threw it in the bin


  6. Finally got the hardline nut undone today using vice grips & 19mm spanner & the flid pissed out which is a good thing then put on another hose & bled the caliper & all 4 brakes are working now39dc0c49f57dce9b2b717263ba6d896d.jpg20c31d3d44fcc28eb663075f55dad6fa.jpg

  7. You talkin bout these vise grips mate? Bought these the other day too but still not havin luck cos of the lack of room in there but ill def give the nuts a smack with a punch & hammer lol sounds funny, i was actually at pick a part today & had the 19mm spanner on the flex hose end & the 3/8 on the hardline nut & as i pulled the 19mm spanner slipped off and smacked my glasses into my nose then onto the ground, anybody looking wouldve had a laugh i was like "well better bend the nose pins back into shape & keep goin"a06a79e740a0066d1b86a6edc36124e1.jpg

  8. What size spannera would u guys use to crack the flare nuts on the hardline? I bought a 3/8 flare nut spanner & if fits on snug but still slips off under torque when i try to crack the nut & my hardline nut is now rounded & i went to pick a part to try to get the whole hardline from the diff to the left flex hose but the spanner just rounds the damn nut.........i dunno what im gonna docc769d9002b0161967c2ec35368efad6.jpg

  9. Update

    Got a secondhand flexible hose from pick a part on sat for $7 & went to put it on today & ofcourse the hardline nut gets rounded off so now will have to get another hardline that goes from the union fitting to flexi hose holy shit this is getting silly now


  10. I took the bleed nipple off & cleaned it its good , then got my brother to push the pedal no fluid came out so then i undid the hose from the caliper & pushed the pedal many times again & still no fluid so looks like the hose needs to be replaced which i might do tomorrow & hopefully that gets the caliper working again


  11. Im just sitting here watching tv & going over the pad & piston in my mind & now its just hit me what u were talking about Dean the triangle hangs out a bit but once the piston is turned to the "correct posirion" there is enough room for the "triangle to sit in one of the 2 grooves on the piston thats that stupid tool goes into to wind the piston in or out......oh well too late now. I seriously dont know why they just didnt use a push in method like they did for the front calipers it makes life so much easier
