    Cleaning your trucks wheels can be as simple as giving them a hose and a wipe. Or if you want to do it the right way use a light on the surface, it will show every little detail s…

    When you drive an imported truck a big bullbar is cheap insurance. A roo could jump out at any second and then your truck is off the road waiting for parts from all over the world…

    Stretchy straps aren’t really that good for strapping stuff down in the back of your truck.. luckily they have plenty of other uses. As you can see in this demonstration, alternat…

    So your snap on spanners can tighten a nut, but can they do this?? Put any old tool in the capable hands of the right person and you’d be amazed at what they can achieve.

    The roller door is either up or down, there’s no in between. Leaving a roller door half way can create a hazard in that someone (even yourself) could walk into it if they’re not p…

    Try to keep the cover closed on the back of your truck if you’re not using it. Saves excess weathering of the tub, and if you go one step further and lock it up, it could also sav…

    Don’t need nothin but a good vacuum to clean marine carpet mounted on the back of your truck. However timber slats wouldn’t need vacuuming at all, so considering them at the momen…

    Automotive and marine carpet needs to be vacuumed just like the carpet in your house. However, the Roomba would last 3 seconds up there before it falls off the edge.. So looks lik…

    If you’re planning to put big heavy things in the back of your truck, it’s worth looking at upgrading your suspension. Not only will your truck last longer, but it will travel a l…

    A hard mounted tool box on the back of your truck is super handy. No need to strap stuff down if you can just chuck it in the box!

    Engine cranes are handy normally, but I think I’ve stumbled across a new use for it. What’s your alternative uses for it?

    A nice heavy tool can not only loosen the toughest of nuts but also lift tops 😁
