What did you do to your navara today?

Put tinted bonnet protector on and dropped it off to get the rhino lining sprayed on. Picked up my turbo timer, and my towbar is on its way. Booked in to have tonneau cover put on also.

While washing mine today I was reminded that I still hadn't bought a bonnet protector but then I was also reminded that any bonnet protector I've had before was only one stone away from being a two piece fixture and decided that 1 chip in 2 1/2 years is not really a bad thing after all.

You sure,

What are you suggesting my ute has hypothermia?

replaced cyclone filter with ebay delete pipe just now, drove to bottle shop and back. Pretty straight forward afair, seems good quality and good fit after some trimming and chamfering and sikaflex. Needed a 3" silicone straight joiner tho. Looks like it would flow a lot better than the tiny ducting that was on the cyclone filter. Its definitely louder, cant say i could notice it going any better tho. Ill see how it goes for a bit but think i might put the prefilter back on. 110kw diesel induction noise is ****en gay and irritating.

Dropped the ol' gal in to get the diff ratios changed, wheel bearings changed and clutch changed out. I'll pick it up in two weeks then get the mike vine turbo installed. Booyah!

It got its first service. Stopped the ac belt squeaking. So a good day.

Added some more light to the girl.

Filled up ($203 later...), quick oil and filter change (thankyou Fumoto valve - no mess), and decided that I really do want to keep it....won't be looking at any more new cars

Installed last weekend
Roof Racks and Roof Basket

Drove around while listening to those rubbish Sax springs squeak and rattle like they're about to fall apart.

All done up tight, I wasn't told these springs required more maintenance then the engine in the ute.

On another note, a chick at Sax (Who I am still waiting on about 5 call backs off) said Sax springs are made in India these days.

Looks like Fair trading will have to sort things out.

That's a damn well shame I was interested on getting some fitted up but if that's the case my dobinsons will stay in the car.

Dave. I think you may find that any of the Burgundy coloured sax springs aren't made in Aus. The only ones that were hand packed in there workshop are the black ones.

Gunning
From what I have heard they are having no issues with the D40 springs only the d22 ones. I reckon if they swapped the parabolic spring out for a thicker standard spring the issues should be resolved. But its not my call or my business

These have me tempted, how much of an improvement over factory lights would you rate them thanks

just worked out that since last july i have only done 3500km.

Did absolutely nothing today, can't find the tool to change the pulley on the alternator.

Nobody in town has one

Picked the nav up from mordialloc after getting rhino lining put on. Very happy. Also installed my turbo timer today.

Waited some more for my battery monitors to show up

Watched a wheel go flat again... has this annoying leak. Waiting to get new tires. Already plugged one screw hole.
