Default New Undercarriage...well, it looks new!

thought i'd share something i've been considering for years...creating some undercarriage ****...first pic is obviously the "before", and then 21 years of dirt, grime, grease, oil, cosmoline...gone! can also see my red walrod bushings (installed by the man himself! well, he and robin back in the day when they used to wrench on the weekends). sorry for the orientation on the last pic, not sure why it's rendering like that. nevertheless, it's freeking CLEAN!

thanks. my eyes fell out when i saw what they did. makes working on the car, and spotting any leaks so much easier. not inexpensive by any stretch, but less than a paint correction.

Fantastic!

Your RF inner bleed nipple cap is detached (pic #7).

Andreas will spray your undercarriage for a fistful of $2 bills. Might get dinner, too (or so I hear).

The next day, he'll clean the chassis of your car.
