yeah dude, was under the cruiser

Sig turned up and showed me a trick to get it to work
so after a bit of faaarking around I now have a handbrake
Its nothing like a new one, but its better than I've ever had it before

So thanks heaps to Sig for helping me out

Warren, txt me 'fakey' so I can save ya number, my cheap chinese phone doesn't hold missed calls, so lost ya number completely.

What you need is a steam cleaner and a forklift for mamaku mud. Would send pics but might get myself into trouble.
