31's on a vitara
G'day fella's Been a while since I've been on here. I've been pretty busy building a house. Anyway, I bought the missus a 92 V6 Vitara recently and it's in need of tyres. Very few offroad ones available for the 16" rims and seemingly even less for the 15" rims. My question is, will 31x10.5 R15's fit ...

80 Series brakes
Hi Gents,
I am thinking about buying an 80 series for my missus but yesterday I was talking to a guy from a 4wd repair shop on here on the sunny coast who said that 80 series brakes are shite. Can anyone shine any light on this? The guy has been around for a long time and seems to know his stuff.

Comfortable seats for HJ 47
Does anyone know of some comfortable seats for a HJ 47 that would bolt in easily, or with minimum fuss? I'm not looking to spend a mint, but he standard seats are not enticing the missus to go on a longish trip

Merry Christmas all. I am wondering about mounting a hi-lift jack (my Christmas present from my wife) to my 47 Ute. What have people done (ideas). I have seen them mounted to the front of the step and up the front pillar and I'm wondering how you do this.

Re: Rav4 economy
I haven't had any direct experience, but I have heard some terrible figures bandied around about fuel consumption. My wife wanted one, but I think I'd rather buy her an 80 series turbo diesel. Better car, better on fuel.

My son had a H in his 45. It was slow and vibrated heaps so we changed it to a 2H; -never happier. If you decide to keep the H in it, find a good dentist as it will eventually shake your teeth out.
