Newbie Alert

Postby cuemanlew » Sun Sep 23, 2018 1:39 am

Picked up my 2015 custom limited today, looks great, Anything I should do straight off or look for?
I am gonna rack the back out for work( some thinking needed as not as big as my last van)
Also looking at deadlocking rear doors and new lock on drivers door(not sure what he called it) and also recommended loom guards on front doors, what do you guys recommend? Do I need loom guards? Any advice welcome
I have owned a Transit since time began....

Nothing actually happens when you cut the door loom

It's those brown b*stards you want to watch out for :x :x

I think this will be what i do, they tried telling me the loom guards were for the front doors, a few companies selling them.

Cutting the loom won't open the doors
The only person ever to cut a ldoor loom was someone trying to sell a loom guard
