What did you do to your WK Grand today?

Agreed Drover, I used GL-5 for the diffs and ATF FS for TC.

I fit the bash plates from Custom Offroad this morning, they're a nice bit of kit. Nice and heavy stainless steel, I am sure they won't stay so shiny once it's been offroad.
I fought with it for ages, but couldn't for the life of me get the other 2 bolts on the very front to line up due to the Offroad Animal PreRunner, I loosened the whole thing but couln't get it to budge enough, something I'll have to tackle next weekend (self inflicted virus after way too much rum last night), it should hold up to 20 mins of road driving a day
Edit: I fiddled with it, got 3 of the front bolts in using the originals as they have a tapered head, made it easy to push the suckers in, 1 of the bolts that I'd forced has snapped out the nutsert, ah ahwell, 3 is enough

They are good gear, didn't have any dramas with my bolts and the hole for oil changes is just right...... the price is bloody realistic unlike some brand name gear which is possibly not as good but a few hundred bucks more...
Gold Stars from this fella for quality.

Yep, quality is top notch and the price is great. I got a 50 buck discount for some random promotion.
I sent an email and old mate said he's looking into doing some for the fuel tank too. I'll wait and grab some of them than the overpriced stock plates that people try and flog off.
The issue with the front bolts were due to the PreRunner not moving. But I sorted it

[drover]

I'd be interested in fuel tank plates as well as they do look like targets from underneath............. So long as the tranny plate was the last one fitted all should be good............let us know if he gets the fuel tank plates done.

after looking at the bottom of mine the plates to take the most damage are my mopar fuel tank covers.

I can see how that'd happen. The fuel tank sits quite low and flat
