Here is a weird one guys, and I'm stumped. Just behind the steering wheel, in the column there seems to be something loose, really loose and it rattles. Weirdly it's only whilst traveling down hill, in both 4wd and 2wd. If I hold the wheel straight the rattle is constants and there is still a...

Hi guys, I hope someone could help me out. On my last trip away I noticed that when I hit the transmit button on my UHF the reading on my egt gauge zeros out. I thought it could've been a voltage or earth problem so among other things the other day, I switched the active and negative for the UHF...

Hey guys, thought I'd chuck up my plans in this section too. I found some inspiration with scottybobcats rear bar but made a slightly easier one as I'm not the most talented metal worker. I needed to move the rear wheel from under the car as I'm going to put in an aux tank with pump, and I...

It had been a few weeks since my last trip out, so my mates and I decided an over night trip was in order. We decided a trip up to Bendethera camp grounds would be fun. We took the "harder" track in from Araluen expecting it to be pretty tricky and require a few recoveries, from what we had...

Hey guys, I've been kicking around for a bit and decided to throw up a build page as I've got some big plans for the Nav now I've decided to keep it for a bit. I bought it pretty much stock standard in march last year, it had the bull bar and cruise control, from the condition it'd never seen...

On a whim while cruising eBay on night shift I purchased a 55w 6000k hid conversion kit. Cost me $85 and took 2 days to get here. I chucked them in today (it took me about 15min) and tested them tonight. All I have to say is wow! It is the best money I've spent so far. The amount of light that's...

After a few months waiting for the core to come from the states, Northside 4x4 were able to send out my intercooler. FINALLY!!! I'm going to try and fit it tomorrow while I'm off work, although its a front mount do trying to refit a bull bar by myself might be tricky. I'm so happy!! I'll keep an...

Got bored so I went with my brother in-law for a quick trip up the brindies, and convinced my old man to test his new 2 inch lift kit in his Suzuki Vitara. I was hoping for some recovery practice, but it wasn't to be, little suzuki went well most of the day which was a bit upsetting. I went out...

The other morning driving to work I noticed my cruise control wasn't working, slightly annoyed I left it until the afternoon to check it. On the way home the cruise worked perfectly. The next morning I tried to use it again with no success I then went through the "what's different" checklist in...

Hey guys, This tray has been in the works for a couple of months, but because work keeps sending me away it's just dragging out. I've got it to the point where I just have to paint it and wire up the lights, so I hope by the end of the week it'll be good to go. Let me know what you think and...

I'm excited now, like a kid at Christmas. I've just ordered my Beaudesert exhast and ASE intercooler. I'll be watching the mail box like a dingo watches a human baby. Also have the steel for my home fab tray and all the components for my dual battery, air compressor and sub install. Whew I'm...

Hi Guys, Now that I'm back from my extended deployment on toilet island, I'm keen to get back into modding the nav. Before I left I had pretty much decided on a Beaudesert 2.75 inch exhaust, as one of these mailed to my door was cheaper than any 3in system I could find around town. If no one...

Sorry for lame title, but I'm very quickly becoming bitter with my local exhaust shops. So far I've been to 4, asking for a 3 inch system including dump pipe, because that's what seems to be the goods around here. Thus far no one will do a 3inch, only up to 2.75, and the best price I’ve been...

Bit of advice please, I've just picked up my new custom built tool box which is about 30kg, and I'm looking at whacking my 2nd battery in it, plus my recovery gear (when 4x4ing) and my hi lift, also assorted on the spot tools. With all this on a standard Ironman 2in lift should I add the "load...

Hey guys, hope you can help. I searched this topic and all I found were results for reverse lights that don't work, where as mine do work, sometimes. When I first select reverse (manual box) the lights come on, then when I start to release clutch they either turn off or flicker. Not that I’m...

Since winter started, and since the ice has been getting thicker and thicker each morning on the windshield I've found it harder and harder to start the nav. Would crank but wouldn't quite fire for a fair few seconds. After a service the mechanice suggested I change glow plugs to try fix this...

Hey guys, I've loaded some pics into a gallery, but not sure if I did it correct. I was bored this morning at home so I packed a lunch and took the short drive up to Mt Franklin. First meet mud, then slush, then finally snow it was an adventerous day. If you live close and feel like an easy...

Hey Guys, Thought I'd chuck up some photo's that I found on my work comp of my Nav. It's an '03 D22 STR 3ltr, I bought it 4 months ago pretty much bog stock apart from bull bar from Sutherland in NSW. Since then, I've fitted Light Force 240s, GME UHF, snorkle, double din DVD/GPS/BT/iPod, Kicker...

Hi, I'm new to the world of Navara ownership with my recent purchase of an '03 D22 STR. So far I'm really happy with my choice and I've made some recent additions to it already. I'll hopefully find some idea's and tips for further mod's I have in mind. I'll throw up some photo's as soon as...
