I was originally thinking of sax suspension, but from what I've read and been told, it seems to be hit or miss, and not everyone seems totally convinced by them. Honestly, I have no idea what's better and what I should be getting!! Bods- can you a pick of your bar up please? I though the same...

Hi Guys, I'm starting to customise my truck a bit more, and am looking at doing my suspension with 50mm lift, bullbar and winch and tyres. I'm having trouble deciding on the bull bar and am looking for some advice and opinions.. I'm looking at either the xrox, the ironman commercial, or the...

I ran mine recently through the grommet that is above the bonnet release cable, on the drivers side. I found that to be pretty easy to get to. Straighten out a coat hanger and push it through from the engine bay. I then cable tied the cable up out of the way of the pedals.

I do have a LED work light on a rear tool box, which came in very handy for having to reverse and unhook in the dark. We hit ALOT of pot holes too on the road too, so I was thinking the light bar would be safer for driving anyhow....

Hey Guys, I Went out camping Friday night with the family and got stuck on a boggy track with a few trees down. Progress got slowed right up and eventually we were out there in the pitch black, unhooking the camper trailer and doing a 20 point turn on the track to turn around (I forgot the...

I've been tossing up between the king springs all round, or king spring front and sax rear, or sax suspension all round. From what I've read, the sax stuff may be bet better, but my brother works at Bursons and can get me king springs, shocks, struts for $900, vs the $2400 I was quoted for the...

You've sold it to me Geoff, we'll be there with two kids and a camper trailer in tow :cheers!:

I'm keen guys. I Haven't been to one before, what's the go? My D40 is bog standard.....will I still be welcome :welcome: Will there be many families with kids there? My kids are 18 months and 3 yrs old......not to much screaming or early mornings (5:30 isn't early is it?!) I promise!

Bemm River and Jamieson both look good, but we might save those for summer when its a bit warmer. We are thinking maybe going through Echuca, then up to Hay, after that were not sure. Fraser Island would be good, not sure if it would take us to long to get up there with the kids in the back (...

Any suggestions are welcome Hosery, I will look into those places. I think we will go reasonably hard for the first few days to get north, but there's only a certain amount on "hard" you can can go when there's a 2 1/2 yr old and 14 month old in the back!! I reckon I can take about 16-17 days...

Hey Guys, We just picked up a secondhand Tru Blu camper trailer on the weekend, and a pretty keen to start using it. We are planning a 2 week trip late July, leaving from Melbourne. Question is, how far north do we need to go to get some half decent sunshine that time of the year? We have 2...

Thanks for the quick replies, I like the idea of taking it off the cig lighter, so when the cars off, you know the power is off to the unit. Next question is - is there an easy way to get through the fire wall on the ST? And whats the easiest way to get to the power for the cig lighter...

Hey Guys, I just picked myself up a new UHF for 2010 ST, now to install it. Question is- what's to the best/easiest way of picking up power for the unit? Cheers guys, Maho

I had an Oztent RV3 for a few years, and yes, it is really quick to put up and down. The negatives I had were - I broke the internal side support poles on three occasions, in windy weather. The side poles just couldnt handle the wind. Also, the overall size and weight is a bit much I reckon, I...

A pic would be good if you've got one there. I've got a ST Manuel, the othe place I was thinking it could go was on the side of the centre console, up in front of the handbrake, in line roughly with the knee. It could go driver or passenger side. The console seems to be skinny enough to keep it...

I'm thinking of getting a UHF too, but I was thinking I would wait until I get a bullbar to mount the arial. Bullbar now is going to be a while off, as I think tyres, suspension and UHF are more usefull first. (2 young kids and a mortgage slows the spending down!) So question is, if installing...

Hi Guys, Im currently dreaming about a trip from Melbourne to Jindabyne, via The Great diving range (No Bitumen!) Im hoping to do this next summer sometime, after some more mdifications to my D40 Has anyone done a drive like this? And Know how long it would take roughly? Cheers, Matt

So how do you guys have them wired if they are for reversing and camping? Or do you have them switched in cab and turn them on when reversing? I was goo g to have my switch in my tool box, so is just accessible when camping, not driving. Maybe I should switch them in cab and can then use them...

Hey Guys, Im looking at mounting an LED work light on my rear tool box, which also houses my dual battery set up. Im going to wire it directy into my fuse box via a switch. My question is, what size light is best? Has anyone else got something similar? What output does yours have and is it...

Hi Guys, Just wanted to share with you a couple of pics of my dual battery Ive just located in a checkerplate tool box, in my steel tray. Ive put 2 merrit points in, one out the back of the box for the fridge, and one out the side for light/future use.... I plan to wire in a spot light for...
