Melbourne National 4x4 / Fishing show.

As you probably know, the National 4x4 show starts on 26 Oct in Jeffs shed, and i am putting together a shopping list of parts i want to get.

Basically I'm after 4.88 diff gears, possibly ARB lockers, and a few other bits and pieces. What are people' s experience with show specials. Does stuff get discounted much.?

generally speaking yup.
But this depends on what (if any) relationship you may have built up with your local 4x4 shop.
If you're not in any great hurry, then get some prices, wait for the show, and then get some prices there, but be prepared to pay at least a deposit at the show to get the special prices.

On the last day there trying to have nothing left to take back so this could be the day!

The only thing is that some things might be sold out!
