Towbar issues I bought the car second hand. The towbar was fitted afterwoods at opposite lock in Dubbo, I have the receipt to prove it. The markings on the bolts are 8.8 and x. H/R are trying to say that because I am the second owner that they will not honor the warranty.:tazzy:

Towbar issues Sorry forgot the pics of the internal brackets. My Nav D22 is a 2006 model. The recall was for D40s' and Pathfinders in 2013 in relation to their Nissan fitted towbars. All my bolts were tight when I removed the towbar and brackets from the car. It does seem a poor design as...

Recently coming home from a trip to QLD towbar decided to drop it's guts on the ground. Was towing my Jayco Swan which I've had for over five years, at the time. She is 1500kg fully loaded and a towball weight of 135kg. Hardly pushing the limits. Seems the brackets that holds the towbar to the...

Seems I was only hoping with the latest venture, still got vibrations after 70kph. Going back to bridgestone tomorrow. Going to start investigating other tyre fitters after this. The saga continues.

Thanks fellas, have since fitted 16x 7 inch Kings by the same tyre fitters at Bridgestone in Hoppers Crossing and have had more success. Still a slight vibration at about 75 kms but I can live with that.:tazzy:

Want to know if anybody is having probs with wheel balancing on their D22.I have a 2006 D22 fitted with 16x8 +20 offset steel sunraysias dressed with Bf Goodrich 265x75 A/t. Started with King wheels, couldn't balance them, tried several times no luck, have tried three different tyre places...

Sounds like a great event I'm keen.:tazzy:

I have recently upgraded my suspension on my 06 D22 with Tough Dog front and rear shocks and also Tough Dog torsion bars. This is in addition to a 2'' raised rear end with an extra leaf added. I also tow a Jayco Swan ,approx weight 1500kg fully loaded. The entire set up cost about $1200. Shocks...

:redcool:I am in the process of getting new tyres for my 06 D22, and have whittled it down to BF Goodrich A/Ts. Going for a standard size. But while I am at it will get a set of King Terra black steel rims (sunraysia). Have thought about an offset of -20 which I believe will give a deeper dish...

Another battery question I have roughly worked out the cost and there isn't much difference. A 75 ah battery pack from thumper ready to hook up isolator, wiring, jumper leads etc all included for about $750.00. and a couple of hours of your time. Dual battery system wired up by an auto elec...

Has anybody had anything to do with those battery packs such as a Thumper. Are they any good. Seem to be quite a flexible and flexible unit. :cheers!:

:cheers!:Posting for the first time here hope I get it right. Can someone advise me the best way to go in regards to a dual battery system. What would suit better for my 2006 str. An auto electrician doing the whole job, do it myself, the kits look reasonably straight forward to fit, or get one...
