    Spring Manufacturers i.e. King's vs Lovells vs Pedders

    I had the standard fe2 suspension in my vyss when i got it, went to dobinson's and got a set of their super lows put in. The ride originally was harsh and tracked badly, with the dobinson's in the ride is so much better. The biggest problem for some people is that the dobinson's springs aren't...

    how hopeless are some parents?

    my wife came across and good cheaper alternative it was a tea tree shampoo about three bucks a bottle it doesn't kill them you have to brush them out but once there gone this stuff repels them. worth a shot, worked well and still use it to this day.

    Tyres wearing out on the inner side

    you have said the tyres that were on the rear had come from the front, this would already have put a certain wear pattern into the tread. The first thing i would suggest is getting the person doing your wheel alignment to put in at LEAST 2mm of positive toe. The most common cause of tyre wear is...
