My Cruise Control comes on selected trips...her name is Wendy! She fits nicely in the front passenger seat without any modifications. (Or is that speed limiter?:D

Plus front mounts are legendary for filling with mud over here! A problem you probably have a bit more often than us Oz offroaders :D Make sure you fit a good Oil temp and pyro guage first before you mess with the turbo or its dead turbo for you! Very easy to blow a turbo that's cranked up...

OK I'll admit "Sling Thingy" is a bit vague! Just been in my shed, the sling is a Lift-Mate LM100. Made by the Hi-Lift Jack company. www.hi-lift.com http://www.hi-lift.com/accessories/lift-mate.html I use it a lot to lift my rig up onto the jackstands when I'm working on the car in the...

Hi Mate, The T-max is a excellent Air compressor, keep an eye on the temp of the unit, let it cool a bit if needed. Air jacks are real easy, but make sure you run a nice thick bit of canvas or carpet under it when in use. It's not too hard to punch a hole in them when under pressure. That's why...

Just a few pics from a day trip Three mates and I did last month in a bit of forest country an hour south of Perth. It's real popular with all kinds of offroaders, so sometimes you have to watch you don't run over a dirt bike or two, and when the clubs go through you can drool over some of the...

I'm 49 and I've got three GKids from 5-9. It's very cool to be able to keep up with them! I'm taking them all on a beach run tomorrow while their mum buys tupperware- excellent. I'm at the beginning of infecting them with the offroad and camping bug, so the future looks good!:thumbs

Ahhh!! the saga continues. but this time I think its sorted, because its been working fine now for three months! Because of the wear and tear on the rubber, the last repair failed when the black rubber ring fell apart completely DAMNATION!! Ah well. Chatted to bro-in-law about it and needing...

Ok....update. The super super glue wasn't so super after all, although I got two weeks out of it. Ah well......round two. This time I knew I had a lot more torque pressure to deal with than I previously thought, so I approached it this way: <a...

OK, I can't find the main article I read with a bit more detail, but heres a quick quote: "ZD30 3.0L engine: There have been a number of well documented faults with this engine relating to airflow meters and engine lubrication, sometimes causing complete engine failure. Following the required...

Over here the 3.0 ltr diesel is known as the hand grenade! Because the sometimes go off with a bang. When it happens it's cheaper to drop in a new donk than fix the factory one. I'm not sure of the details off the top of my head, but I'll dig out the article which specify the issue and post the...

Despite several highly innappropriate comments by unapreciative wives, Broke inlet is a back-free zone. Although on the night my airbed went flat there was a bit of back-ache!:doh Check it out on Google Earth, it's a cool spot!

Dead Right, If its still going in 21 years it'll be a doorless, roofless, dune buggy!

I thought i'd share this fix which seems to be working well (Touch Wood!) My drivers door electric window failed. I took out the motor, etc to check and found the large rubber drive gear..... <a...

Lowest prices are just the beginning indeed!

I am puzzled by an apparently new type of power tool we are selling at our local hardware. They were selling the discs for it on special the other weekend. I was hoping some of a more technical nature may be able to explain what such a tool could be used for: <a...
