Jason, you joined a bit before my time. I joined 96 as a MT, I was taught by your era. Good times. I may know a few guys on Success around that time. I did most of my time on Freo's in Darwin You got out at a good time.

TJM do them (ADR Approved). Mine are from TJM and they are bolted through the rear firewall behind the seat. If you want photos let me know and I may be able the get some after work.

Check where ARB now get there Suspension made, its not buy Munroe anymore.

Mate, after that you need to go over to the sand pit. 18k is a lot of money in anyones book. At least you wont need to waste your money on a new car when you get back.

Trav1987, I live in Anula.

After seeing this I wont pass judgement.

16 years as a Marine Tech in the Navy. Currently In Darwin on Patrol Boats (floating coke cans) post to Sydeny at the end of the year.

I have the ARB delux bar fitted to mine. I have compared it to the ironman bar and there is no difference except the cost ( about 1K ). If I had my time again I would have gone the ironman bar and spent the remainder of the money on other mods. Up to you

Thanks for the post, been looking for a volt meter like that locally (in darwin) for a while. Went to Jay Car today and picked my self up one.

Mate, you do not require a smartpass with the 250s for a dual battery system in a 4wd. It's more designed for battery banks. The big diference, with out getting to technical, between the redarc and the ctek is that the redarc compensates for voltage drops in the system. I've installed both...

A fuse/breaker should be fitted from the starting battery (as close to the starting battery as posible) to suit the current rating of the cable being used or the equipment to be run, then a 40amp before the charger (as close to the charger as posible). The first fuse/breaker protects the cable...

Scotty and Ryan, These are only side steps (for now) I would not be using these as sliders as they stand. Scotty I've seen your sliders and they look the goods , however its the welding to the chassis that worries me. I'll be looking into different mounting arrangements over the next couple of...

d40ryan do you have photos of your sliders and how they mount to your chassis? Whould be interested to see.
