I've got an OzTrail self inflating mattress. It's the way to go! warmer and more comfortable. needs a bit more storage space but it's worth it. I suspect there's little difference between brands.

Be happy with the auto! Better box than a manual for 4wd except downhill (not everyone agrees though :-). Learn to drive through the brakes and you have "poor mans lockers". Enjoy the new rig.

Temp sounds okay :-)

The TC is basically a big shock absorber between the engine and gearbox so, when locked, all available power transferred. I rarely use 4th gear (overdrive) anymore except...

The legs are the same but different bars are used. Six legs per platform (8 can be fitted). I've moved the platform forward and added a single HD bar, so more storage with rtt fitted. I had to add...

Agreed. I've got a nomad valve body and it's great. If you want to go manual shift use the hold button.

G'day Todd. Some pics are here. Fitted by my mechanic with my assistance (I cleaned up and held the spanners).

the AT uses the radiator to help heat the ATF in cold climates (snow) as well as cool in hot climates. more cooling = better. I would prefer not bypassing the radiator.

oh ... and I wouldn't go...
