    Just about to jump into my next Patrol. A 2001 GU II TB45E .

    WARNING!: Do not ever use a towball as a recovery point. They are not rated and can become a deadly projectile during a recovery if they snap off, and they have done so with tragic results in the past.

    How dod you go AB? Get em clean?

    if not, use toothpaste. Yes that was toothpaste. Can only use it on glass though. Its great for polishing metal as well.

    Cheers,
