08 Hilux replacement sump & transmission guards

Firstly, appologise if this has been asked before - I have tried searching.

Can anyone recommend an effective replacement set of sump and transmission guard for an 08 Dual Cab? Preferrably from the Brisbane area.

Thanks very much.

Thanks to all for the excellent information. So from what you have said, I am confident that it will keep frozen stuff frozen when on 12v (at reasonably ambient), but will draw 10A continuous.

I fully intend to get a dual battery setup. My question is how does it really compare on 12v? Does anyone have any quantitive experience? IE, will it at least keep frozen items frozen in say 32-40°C ambient Will it chill down a 1.5L bottle of softdrink in a reasonable time under the same conditions? ...

Performance of a Dometic Chescold RC1180 on 12v

I've read the other posts about wiring up a 3 way, and waco v engel, etc I do not wish to start yet another "which fridge is better" thread... I already have an RC1180 which I am absolutely wrapped with. As the other topics say, perfect for setting up camp for a few days and running on gas. We ...

awesome day

We went down to Scenic Rim AP today, first time at any 4wd park.
First time to see a comp. Had a ball, thanks to everyone involved in organising, and to all the competitors for putting on a fantastic show. We will certainly be back again. :D

08 Hilux front tow/snatch point

08 Hilux with a Genuine Toyota Bull Bar (steel). I have searched and searched for a place to mount a hook on the chasis (at the front) as a suitable snatch point. I even took it to back to Toyota today and asked them. They looked at it, and were unable to tell me. They did suggest I go and talk to ...
