Re: Undercoating? Oil spraying?

Also for those who say that they work on their truck and don't like getting messy - my mechanic says he'd much rather wash the "grease" created by say Krown mixed with dirt/brake dust/tire dust etc. off his hands then go and spend 9 hours at the ER to get rust particles fished out of his e...

Re: Undercoating? Oil spraying?

I know some folks don't want certain areas sprayed and are leery of holes being drilled etc. Others may have had bad luck with a "pro" who misses a lot of spots. Or, have had the misfortune of scheduling an appointment then driving home in the rain, washing the elixir off before it has ful...

Re: New member from PEI

Thanks BigRed44! I see you are a ham. I am too: VY2PR :) One of the things I'm looking forward to doing is putting a transceiver in the Frontier. In the car 06 Vibe I just have a 2 metre handheld. I'd bought a nice 6M VHF unit years ago but nowhere to put it in the Vibe. Lots of room in the Frontier...

Re: New member from PEI

Well it was listed as a 4 cylinder and my VIN search confirmed it as a 4 :) Then I did the testdrive and when I popped the hood it looked like a 4 as part of my inspection. I took delivery late yesterday afternoon. Feels good even in rush-hour traffic. Feels even better when the traffic settles down...

Re: Undercoating? Oil spraying?

I'm a huge fan of Krown. Spray my 06 Vibe every year. My 13 Frontier will be going in for Krown in May. But then, I get attached to a good vehicle and want to keep it. Somewhere on the internet is a Canadian Army study on rustproofing. Gotta keep our Leopards, LAV IIIs and army trucks rust free. If ...

I'm taking delivery tomorrow of a new to me 2013 Frontier S King Cab in shiny black with 5AT. Did a little google search today for Frontier clubs and was delighted to see a Canadian Club. My 2013 is 4x2 with the delightful 2.5 I4 which on my extended test drive seemed peppy but not hot. My insurance...
