Re: 75 series 2h power steer problems
Canyonero this link should get you to some photos of build. The Arkana was finished and registered in 2009. It only stayed that way till last year. I chopped the back off and made it into an extended trayback https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=03d4650115531e69&id=3D4650115531E69%21113&Bsrc=Share&Bpub ...

This has been going on for quite a while now. I originally did and exchange power steer box and pump for my cruiser due to oil leaks. It then sat around for awhile, long enough for warranty to expire , while I made some changes. So when I go to move it there is no power steer at all. It does lighten ...

Extra passenger door troopy owners and insurance
Hi guys,
I bought a troopy iwith the extra passenger door last week and tried to insure it with suncorp but found out to day they wont insure it because it does not fall within their guide line,what ever they are!.
So the question is for those that own one in QLD who are you insured with?
Cheers
Gavin

Thanks
