how come you wired your lights up to the batteries. i picked up my power for the lights in the tailgate. so that they come on when you ...

Thanks guys. It was about 10 meters per light. Can't wait to go camping now!!

So I finally got around to install a LED interior light system in the 80 series to have better lighting when camping. Here is my write up..... enjoy:

The LED lights I purchased were these - https://www.whitworths.com.au/main_itemdetail.asp?cat=123&item=49500&intAbsolutePage= . I loved the fact they ...

Cool thanks guys. Will look at it today.

Hi guys

I have a 1991 1HD-T with 355000 on the clock. I took it for a drive today and noticed when I was stationary, the rpm would be on 0. But when got moving again it would jump up higher. Sometimes it would flick from 0rpm to higher rpm. The engine is not playing up at all.

Any help to diagnose ...

Hi guys,

This is just a quick post to tell you about my recent dealings with Starr Auto Electrical & Mechanical (155 Bexley Road, Earlwood NSW - ph 02 97891361).

All i needed was to have them install a Redarc insulator. Dennis and the lads did an excellent job installing it with no fuss. He even ...

Hey Guys,

I recently got a roof rack fitted by a 4x4 store. With the recent rains, I have discovered rain water in my door sills (about 10 litres of it). :bad-words: The car didn't let in rain water before the roof rack.

I went back to the 4x4 store and told them that when they fitted the roof ...

Lads,

My 80 series already had an inverter in it when I bought it. It has now packed it in. So I thought I would buy a decent intverter from Jaycar.

This is what i bought

When I was going through the wiring from ...

hmmm this is something that I have to consider. I thought that roof racks could hold a tyre (and rim). But I suppose over long corrugations it possibly could be a bad idea.

Thanks for your input blokes.

yesh sorry, wheel and tyre.

Seeings as I just bought an alloy roof rack for touring purposes. How do you blokes secure (with a padlock or locking system) your spare tyres to your roof rack?

Cheers

Looks like a good rig to start off Grylls. Good luck with the build up.

Heres mine:

3" Suspension Lift
2" Body
33" All Terrains
....plus more goodies

So I got the new 4x4 Action magazine in the post today. There is a GPS comparo in there of all the GPS' on the market.

The clear winner was the Two Nav Aventura.

Anyone got any first hand experience with these units?

Thanks

$hit.....now im even more confused on what tyre to get. I was considering the BFG KM2's. More thought into this will be needed

Thanks bogged and T_Diesel for your honest input. Keeping my original BFG's will be considered.

Gday fellow fourbieites,

I have now converted from the weekend warrior type of 4wding, to touring. I have bought myself an 1HD-T 80 Series cruiser with all the fruit. It came with BF Goodrich All Terrains in 33x12.5 (all 90% tread).

So now that I want to go touring (Cape York, Flinders, Vic High ...

Gday Luke,

I've been looking at getting one of the Hema Navigators. They have very detailed topo maps. Might have to ring around to see who stocks the item. Website below.

Good luck

Gday,

Has anyone got any thoughts, opinions or experience with the Hema Navigator GPS (either the old or new one).

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for all your input lads. I will have to test them out more (excuse to go 4wding).

Hey guys,

I took off my TJM Ox winch 10,000lbs from my old 4wd and now attaching it (3 weeks later) to my new 4wd.

I cant for the life of me remember where one of the wires go. I dont have the installation guide. You have a red, yellow and black wires that go from the control box to the terminals ...

Yeah he put one on a GQ shorty last night on 4wd TV. He said he rates them.

Good luck.

Thanks warfer69. Ive fitted one to my truck and think its awesome. I only hope I wired it up correctly as Im pretty bad at installing electrical items. Seems to work ok though.

Sweet, thanks for the help guys. I think I'll get it made official as I use it with the rear seat out all the time. I've got a platform bolted in there, with the fridge bolted to that.

Yeah thats what Ive done to the Bundy. Ive made a wooden platform, raised by about 25cm so I can put gear under ...

*I tried the electrical section but no success*

Hey guys,
