Ha, I bet Deb would of expected nothing less

Ive had some similar - not sure if were the Jaz ones, but a similar extruded plastic one with slip on padded cover.

In my experience they are as uncomfortably as all hell and do give great bruises and a sore tail bone when you roll heavily.

If you are wanting a good seat for competition then i'd ...

Here's a few tips for any one that is purchasing steel to build a roll cage and wants to compete, or thinks that one day you might.

Following these suggestions will help ensure the material you use will be compliant and give you less heartache should you want to compete in a CCDA related event ...

The reason I ask is because my mate used 3.2 wall 1 3/4 Seam tube and I used 2.6 wall seamless but his tube is around 1.5mm smaller OD
He has a full exo but by the sounds of it he might have to remake all the barwork.

I suppose if you are looking at that stuff all the time you could tell.

Hi ...

Hi Tuff 45,

we distribute the JD Squared range of Benders and Notchers in Australia and are just up the road from you at Dural.

Drop us a line on 1300 679 494 if you'd like to chat through the options regarding the different benders available and the specifics of the Stainless you intend to work ...

Hi 84sloth,

we don't have any in stock at the moment but can supply both the Interco M16 (as Evan mentioned) and also the Interco Radial MT in 37" to suit 16" rims, both are radials and will have good road manners - feel free to drop me a line or email if you want any more info.

Cheers,
Tazz

Good to hear they are shooting you out a new one - that is good service. Hopefully you get more than 5mths out of this one hey :-)

I think the problem there could be "chinese radiator" not that it's alloy.

My dad was having the typical TD42 warmth problems in his GU wagon - particually when towing. 18 months ago we dropped a PWR alloy radiator in as he was just about to head of travelling.

They have one done 50,000ks since ...

I went through exactly the same thing 12 months ago, I wanted it for towing and touring too and knew it would do desert trips and cape york in its life.

I talked to a few well known diesel mechanics in NSW and they all said stick with the 100 series if you want to do any remote touring as they are ...

Here is a quote I just got back from JD Squared today.

I have included the Manual Model 32 (not the Hydraulic-$799.00US) and the Notch Master (for the Notcher) for your estimates. You did not indicate which your preference was in the previous email. Please let me know if these are correct and we ...

They should be here by now. I wouldnt mind betting they are sitting on the dock here waiting to be delivered...... hopefully see them next week..

not looking forward to un doing all those bead lock bolts....... :bad-words:

Have they turned up yet Ray - let me know if not and i'll chase it up ...

Thanks for all your help Tazz.

No worries, any time...and they have now left and are on their way north.

Interco havent returned my emails.


Hi Crankycruiser, Out of curiosity where have you been sending your email re interco's as I have not seen any come through.

We have both 36 and 37's to suit a 16" rim in stock (not all radials though). If you want more info on what we have try me on 1300 ...

Yeh i had the same problem with mine - there is another fuse box that isnt listed.

I cant remember exactly where it is in the engine bay as i dont have that car anymore, but from memory it is under the computer.

Call into a dealer and they'll show you quick as...

what year diffs do you remember

Yeh mate it is.
How ya been anyway?

Not quite true - well not in NSW any way. Some engineers will upgrade towing capacity. I know of a couple that have had them upgraded, one being a 60series with ute cut, 350chev, coil conversion on 80 series diffs and 37' wranglers.

He asked the engineer about upgrading the tow rating from 2500 to ...

Hey Chris, give Pete a call - he'll fill you in on what's the go and can get it if you want.

Does he really think hilux diffs will stand up to towing big heavy loads and being driven by and ls6 or a Duramax?

Do you want to keep this style of snorkel head?
I could be wrong but if you do i'm thinking this will be a major air flow restriction point so not sure how much gain you'd see in performance with either style of snorkel?

Have had experience with Procomps and i think they are just too soft and getting rid of them will definitely help. I would'nt suggest Rancho's are any better as i've had them too.
I found the Tough Dogs great even with out sway bars and with 6" lift they transformed the handling - no sway bars and ...

I've got a D40 Navara diesel and it tows 2 to 3 tonne regularly and has done so for nearly 4 years now. Mines an auto and it's much better for towing - the auto does a great job of masking the fact the motor's have no low down torque.

I've had mates with manuals and none of them have been happy ...

Bloody well done Ben

Gonads definitely doesnt own it any more. He sold it about 4 years ago and it went to some one in QLD from memory...

From what i've heard from a number of sources virtually every car being engineered at the moment is being hauled in by the rta.
Doesnt matter if its 4x4, street car, hot rod or who's engineered it they are nearly all getting pulled in and gone over with a fine tooth comb.

I dont think thats the case - later 80s were rated at 3500kg i believe but i'm not sure what year the change was...


Edit.... Just found this on another aussie forum re the timing of the changes to towing capacity..

Called Toyota technical department yesterday arvo, spoke with Terry there, he ...

The nicest one i've seen was Glen Binskins blue one - it looked great, any one have any pics of it?

What about some sought of old agg quad - can be bought quite cheap come with auto and reverse.
Size wise prob 300 to 900cc and shold be pretty light.

Some great pics, keep em coming

That Petersons UA is very similar in stance to what id like, nice and low, big rubber and cut, cut, cut
