From weight management and preventative servicing to driveline upgrades and the mistakes Jock wishes he'd avoided, if you want a rig that'll still be running at half a million kms, this is the episode. 👇 Drop it below: 🔧 Biggest kms milestone you've hit in your 4WD: ____ Chapters: 00:00 Intro 01:20 Weight 02:00 Necessities 03:07 Proactive Maintenance 03:40 Steering & Diff oil 04:56 Tyres 05:30 Modern Culture 07:21 Plan for the future 08:53 Q+A 📱 Follow us: Instagram @4wd247 Facebook @4wd247 TikTok @4wd247 Shaun, Graham, Jock & Jesse — have been delivering Australia's best off-road content for 20+ years.
