Ok guys, I have a Waeco CF50 hooked up to a deep cycle battery via a cable (attached to the poles of a battery box) and the fridge cable attached to that. The deep cycle is connected to the crank battery and controlled by a Projecta 150 unit. Problem - lately while the car is off, the fridge...

Ok all, newby electrical qn. So you know how they sell battery boxes right? And I've got an extra deep cycle sitting in such a box neatly tucked into my toolbox in the tub at the back. All controlled by a proper box and hooked up to the charger battery in the engine bay. I've heard and read...

Hi all, Planning to invest in a canopy for my 2013 D22 STR long tub. Am on a budget. Any recommendations as to a decent functional one? My specs are as follows - white, not necessarily colour coded. Needs to be strong enough to fit 2 bars and a rooftop tent (requires internal bars accordingly)...

Hi all, I've 'lost' a 2013 Navara d22 front wheel cap (hollow centre to allow for the front hub). Before I order a new one does anyone have any spares near Baulkham Hills, NSW? Not sure if it's just for aesthetics but perhaps best to have one covering the hub in case of dirt and crap flying into...

OK folks, I'd like some input from those people that have driven from Sydney or other areas into Cameron's Corner. I'd like to know how much is off-road or dirt road, how long it took you and how manageable it was. Is it easy/hard? Is there a time of year to avoid it? Etc, etc. What's...

OK all tech heads out there..... So I went for a bush bash over the weekend that included one or 2 low level river crossings. When I say low I mean the water level was at about 1/2-way to the tyres. Realised this morning that my rear diff breather tube had dislodged from the nipple housing of...

All, Cleaning out the garage of a few stock items. Complete set of stock shocks, came off the car with about 5K done. Set of stock leaf springs (with all bushes, nuts and U-bolts) just removed today with 20K on the clock. I also have a stock front guard (metal) I took off when I added on the...

Hi all, Don't have a lot of cash at my disposal. When I do will probably put in a 2 inch lift kit. Have a mainly stock 2013 D22 STR. Got bulbar, towbar, wound up the torsion bars a bit after installation of after market shocks (mechanic), bashplates and the usual external extras (lights...

Hi all, wanted to know who has done Monkeygum track at Yalwal, NSW and what your mods are. Trying to determine whether the (mostly) stock D22 will make it. I have bashplates, Toughdog suspension and Hankook Dynapro ATM but no lift or lockers, only a slight tightening of the torsion bars which...

OK guys here goes, sorry if this has been asked before. I really don't want to stuff around with having to remove my bullbar and in January (birthday time!!) will be in a position to add my next mod to the D22 - a winch. My question - I am looking for a winch that I can install to the bar...

Hi all, on a budget, wanting to see if anyone is keen to upgrade and sell their fridge/freezer or doesn't need theirs anymore. Doing a Simpson trip September. Need about 40-55L capacity, good working order. Don't mind if it's an older reputable one (Weaco, Engel) or if it's one of the China jobs...

Hi all, have pretty much decided, based on budget, between the Hankook Dynapro ATM or MT. I love the look and potential benefit of the MT in the more muddy terrains and am keen to find out people's experience with either. Are the ATM's sufficient? Are the MT's too noisy on road? Are the...

Hi all, I have a full set of spare shock absorbers front and back taken off my 2013 D22. Car has only done just under 10K and has had about 5 off-road trips sofar (1 including a beach day, the rest out Lithgow way), so fairly limited bruising! I can live with keeping them as spares if there's no...

Hi folks, I have a 2013 D22 with a genuine Nissan bullbar. What is the best medium priced (500-1000 or cheaper) winch that would fit onto the bullbar WITHOUT ****in about that's easy to install for a layman like me? I was thinking a Runva xp11. Furthermore, how do you all hook it up? Is it...

Looking for 2 stock alloy rims for my 2013 D22. Seen sets of 4 for $200. Only need 2, no tyres. Live in Baulkham Hills, Sydney, cheers.

OK guys here goes. I have a set of stock tyres on my 2013 D22, Bridgestone Dueller 693 A/T that have only done 10K. They're in great nick and I'm not overly keen to have to trade them as I won't get any $$$ back. Problem is, I'm planning a Simmo Desert trip, going to Mildura, Flinders Ranges...

Hey guys, quick question, I can't tell anymore because I have a tubliner with an overlip. How is the stock sports bar arrangement attached to the tub? Are there just simple nuts/bolts that connect underneath the tub lip and keep the sports bar anchors tight? If so, next question, has anyone...

Quick silly question from Newbie - I haven't needed to yet, but how does one actually remove the spare tyre from under the tub of a new 2013 stock D22? I notice a chain and metal clamp of sorts. Sorry for the simple question but I suppose that's what the forum is for. Cheers.

OK folks, I've read most of the long thread of the other double battery set-up, and am asking a separate question cos mine is slightly different yet a similar topic. I have a near new STR 2013 D22. I've bought a Projecta 150Amp isolator kit with all the bits and cable included. I have a toolbox...

Hi all, silly non-mechanical-person question, didn't get far with the Nissan service department. What is the Amp rating of the 2013 D22 ST-R alternator? I am led to believe a sticker on the thing tells me that, however it is obscured by the incoming leads. I'm looking to buy an isolator and want...
