Wondering if anyone has an idea as to why my steering squeals loudly on full right lock when turning. Doesn't happen on left lock. Steering unchanged otherwise when driving, power steering fluid levels normal with no leaks.
We run a HN6 & a Tom Tom. Both aren't cheap to update, Wayne pays about $100 pa to computer upgrade Tommo. I haven't had to update the Hema yet, first year free, not cheap thereafter, but a damn good unit to run once orientated to how it all works, which is quite complicated but gets easier &...
ARB canopies have internal fitment kits so canopy roof racks can be fitted. We have this set up & it's very good....but not cheap.....2800 for the canopy, 1100-ish roof rack, couple hundred for the internal support kit
When I was looking at new tyres earlier this year & was told about this issue by the local Beaurepaires I contacted my insurance broker who contacted Allianz who allegedly said there wasn't an issue with size of the tyres but wanted documentation of any modifications done & specified lift &...
If you're going to run off the SLI batt then I would have a mini jump starter on hand. Best $250 we've ever spent for the piece of mind. We've flattened our D40 batt overnight with our 110lt Waeco in the CT which has dual batts. That's a lot bigger than yours I know, but amazing how much juice...
Just reading this post a year on.....some local boys took us out to test the mods on our Nav on Good Friday this year....we ended up on Depperts Track at Beech Forest, bloody mean, the bogs were untenable without a winch but we all got thru except for the hilux which did a universal & had to be...
You'll use less fuel in 6th gear, but just listen to your engine & watch the revs & you'll know what to do. When we're towing we generally change into 6th around 90kms. If you're actually travelling at around 83km I wouldn't want to be behind you!!!...LOL
I found the steinbauer chip & beauie exhaust improvements minor at this point (installed a month ago) & tends to make the biggest difference with take off & the 1st-2nd gear changes only. It gives a lot more power here, but climbing hills for any towing vehicle other than a v8 will always be an...
I put a 14" LED bar on the front on my bullbar & it's incredible the light it gives off. I drive an hr to work on country roads & it's been great, rarely use my driving lights. Especially good when some oncoming idiot hasn't dipped their high beams...they do so quick smart with a short flash...
Winch, chip, exhaust, lockers, breathers, donaldson filter for the snorkel, air compressor, dual battery, isolator, LED bar light, UHF radio, headlight protectors
I spent 6 months researching & asking others "which fridge?". We got it down to the Engel 65lt & the Waeco CFX 65lt, swaying in favour of the Waeco...then....we met the Ironman 65lt Ice Cube with twin lids & separate compartments for $995. Has a danfoss compressor & a 5yr warranty. We bought it...
We had a list of criteria when buying a CT:
*Had to be able to house a thick, padded innerspring mattress
*Needed to be easy & quick to set up/pack away, especially by one person if either partner was indisposed
*Had to be Australian made incl the tent
*Needed to be something I could live in...
