Tis true, but if you get pulled over for the sole reason of having 3 lights across the bullbar of your patrol.... I'll pay the fine myself. Deal! :lol: Thanks for clarifying. No need to get 'extra attention'. ;) It would only be used for night runs. If it was on a separate switch, it would probably ...

Re: Motorway Tyres shut their doors.

Staff entitelments were not paid They announced they are closing 2 days ago, and you say this already? "the company has high quality assets and as such, we believe that the Administrator will be able to satisfactorily meet all employee entitlements." Give them a chance. I think I can be a pessimist ...

Motorway are a pack of ##%#@!. I know someone directly effected, and they way they sucked every dollar out of the business, and then closed the doors, is disgraceful. The (majority) owner of the company is worth millions, and in the final weeks, resigned as a director. He basically jumped ship, and ...

It's not hitting the rev limiter is it? It does..... :oops: But that doesn't explain the drop in speed. Hitting the rev limiter allows you to stay at the maximum RPM. I know this, from driving rentals..... :lol: :oops: ;) Rev limiter, is the poor mans cruise control!!! ;) I'll give the Westall rd ...

Id be guessing its a pump or injector fault, or computer if its electronic.
All day, hot or cold.

From memory its a 2002 build - I'll have to check the details.

Strange Diesel engine problem

If anyone can point me to a decent Diesel mechanic near Dandenong, Vic, or give me some advice, I would really appreciate it. One of our work Isuzu vans, similar to a Thrifty or Budget rental moving van has an ongoing problem. 2.0 litre non turbo Diesel. On the Freeway, sitting on 100km/h, it will ...

Smart Bar

My GQ has a smart bar fitted. There is a steel section for mounting spotties, which has worked perfectly over the years. On the passenger side, is a section with spaces for a couple of bolts, about 5cm apart. I presume this is for mouning an arial? It there a stanard bracket available? Do you need ...

Plastic welding, Melbourne?

I have a Saab with a small crack in the (plastic) fuel tank. Does anyone know of a place in Eastern burbs of Melbourne who can do it?

Yep, on a GQ. Only a 2" lift too, so clearance in important to me. I always bottomed out on 31"s. I've been very happy with 33"s....so I am a bit reluctant to go to 32"s.....thus the question. ;)

Tyre Dillema

I can get a cheap 2nd set, so please, no comments about brands or alternatives, all I want to know is:

Is there any point in going DOWN a size, but to a more aggressive tread, or would it defeat the purpose.

Any 'real life' opinions?

33" BFG Muds to 32" Mongrels
