Hi Guys, Hopefully some one can point me in the right direction. Trying to source lockers for my rocky. Can be second hand or new. In the Hunter valley region.

Rhino gets the nod from a lot of users and at the end of the day is same cost as the others anyway but perhaps with a bigger accessory range.
Thanks so far for your imput

G'Day all Looking for advice based on your own experiences with there chosen Rack System. Going to the Victorian High Country camping for 7 days so it will be carrying an OZ tent plus other bits.

Thanks fella's point Taken

Got a series 4 GU ZD30. With the known early problems in series 1 and 2 range would converting to gas create a problem for this motor and will it void my waranty. Have a quote so far of 4300 froma reputable company so with rebate would be 2300.

Anyway 2 days after having the car serviced we went for a drive on Stockton to see how it goes in the sand. It went OK until it started to over heat. Stockton seems to be the place for jeep's to overheat, surley its known problem, as we have witnessed 2 jeeps burn to a rusted melted heep during our ...

No, must have been an extra from original owner

Would be interested myself, looks pretty smart. Is it a simple thing to stick woodgrain dash in or does it involve pulling the whole thing out and replacing with the higher spec one.

I was searching for something completely different and stubled across this. It might be what you're looking for (or be able to engineer something similar ;) ) http://motorcare.com.au/safet.htm :armsup: what a ripper, nice and simple. Will get that step and also chops's little ladder thingy and we ...

just get one of those cheap plastic kitchen steps which you can just throw backin the car when not in use. At least it is portable so she can use them elsewhere too. Yea, good call reckon thats probably the only way to go. Engineering anything else would be costly anyway. Storage of something bulky ...

G'Day All. Have set of side by side draws and a waeco 50ltr fridge. Looking at different rear step options that could mount of the tow bar or rear bar that could help the misus who's all of 5ft get easier access to the fridge. Any ideas or directions pointers.

Cheers

I should add the engel goes up to 4.5 amps per hour, I don't know what that translates to over a 12 or 24 hour period. Cheers

Thanks Scott, good info. Dual battery system is a TJM on my Patrol, use to have a disco and fridge on that system went OK for a day trip stopping and starting however traded up to a 05 nissan Patrol. WE are doing a Victorian High country trip in Decmeber for 7 days and hopping the old engel won't ...

G'Day All Got an original Green and Yellow 29 litre engel 20 years old Draws up to 4.5amps per hour. How long will a 80Ah Deep Cycle Battery keep it running without the vehicle turned on. What recommendations would you make to drive this old reliable engel.

Na he will be patient for as long as it takes, will take a look at car sales, and see what there. Would it be better to pay a little more for a latter model?

Just adding to that my first was an LX torana 173, matt black bonet yellow with duck tale, then next a 1972 combi

I agree. It would want to be amazingly cheap for that mileage as the if it hasn't already been done then the motor is probably going to be needing a rebuild in the near future. Where are you and what sort of dollars ar e you looking at spending? Any particular reason for the lwb? They want $4900 so ...

Looking to purchase a JX estate 94 model awesome nic fuel injected but with 400 000 on clock. As a potential buyer should we be concerned the amount of kms and what would the approx cost to pop a recon motor in. Its going to be my young blokes first 4wd so probably need to consider running cost of ...

GU Bug and Scott Yea would be interested in your mates winch but after this lattest series of mods Ive got to allow a little time to go by before attempting the next needed accessory :roll: The handbrake needs time to recover from this one as well as the credit card. Oh Im not the same Richo, Im ...

Yeah, hard call. i would go the locker first for high country trips, BUT please dont consider a T MAX . Like others have said, look for a second hand WARN or buy a brand new Warn TABOR. Brand new , USA quality for $1150 . Cant go wrong, but thats my opinion Dave Checked out this site http://rancho ...
