How to Care for Your AEV Upfit in Local Conditions

Salt Exposure in Winter: With Meaford roads often salted in winter, ensure you rinse off your vehicle frequently to prevent corrosion, especially on the enhanced parts.

Tire Care: Those adventurous trails around Owen Sound or Thornbury can be tough on tires. Regularly check for punctures or wear, especially if you’ve been exploring rough terrains.

uspension Checks: Given the unique load and stresses an AEV suspension system can handle, it’s good practice to have it inspected at least once a year or after a particularly challenging off-road escapade.
