    fuel filter, and lines

    3/8th of 5/8's of fawk all. Take it to a professional for your fuel system lines. These hose joins need to be done correctly for a permanent fix. Yes, you can bodgy it up on the side of the road to get you to help or home but driving any further than that without the right bits & done correctly...

    is the vs and vt the same size inside and are the pillars on the same angle?

    lol I ask myself why do you need a roll cage in a vs? & then wouldn't a speedway roll cage be an overkill? & then aren't VT's wider than VS's? & then.... just what lol

    VB sliding door locks

    VB sliding door locks

    Isn't it like 30 to 40 bucks to buy a universal pin puller for the door pins? I've bought 2 in the last 15 years but not recently.. All you need is that tool & soak the pins with CRC for a good while because they can be tight. I've seen clowns smash their doors using them though just simply...
