Yep and he's been put on the bus.

Here's something he wrote in our ADF topic (which he started!*). Bold type is my own addition.



Good riddance to bad rubbish.

I haven't heard of Flexy Flares (or any similar styles such as Bushrangers) being deemed unroadworthy, but there does seem to be some attention being paid to the 'Bunnings' garden-edging flares that...

Welcome aboard Ryan.

Cheers for the Intro post Rcarter96

Your problem is one of two things - either the exhaust manifold has a leak where it meets the cylinder head, or the EGR pipe that runs from the exhaust manifold...

Tyre brand and size, LOL :)

There simply is no correct or consensus answer to that. Do some searches and you'll find what you need, what I will say is that most of the offroad tyre development...

Glasshouse does indeed have a lot to offer.

You can go anywhere in forestry, as long as there's no signage saying keep out (which means they are working with logging equipment there).

You can...

I keep 'hearing' about how good this paint looks :)

That sounds like a pretty secure arrangement to me. Thanks John.

I didn't imply that you made the one in my photo, John. I used it as an example of something a bit different, which is what your bush hoop is. I asked for more information on how the bush hoop is...

Thanks for your responses John and Kallen. As I mentioned this is something we haven't seen done with recovery points before.

I recall when these ones came out, I already had a billet-style 50x50...

Hi John

I'm curious about the 'bush hoop' item. I have lots of experience with recoveries and ran Superior Engineering dual 16mm plates on my last Patrol (I'll take over-engineered over adequate...

Not much damage, the Purplebus has a full internal rollcage and racing harnesses on the seats so not much damage to Shano either. It would be hard to damage him further, in fact :) Unfortunately that...

But wait - there's more :)

The 454 bus has a sleep at The Springs 4x4 Park

The broken front passenger seat in the Tarago is consistent with a person being hurled forwards then bouncing back into the seat. I agree that seatbelts were the likely contributor to the injuries...

I think the Sidewinder cover is probably not a bad idea. Airflow around the battery in theory sounds good, but in reality may not make any real difference - it's hot air after all. The battery cops...

I am not entirely sure about cars as they have slightly different set-ups in the charging circuit to bikes, but on a bike all excess current is dissipated by the regulator/rectifier as heat (which is...

That was the case with my write-off a week or so ago. Assessor asked me to return the third row seats, spare key and owners books to the vehicle, and while I was at it take any personal effects not...

Might be an ARB bar. Definitely not a place for a shackle, that loop is designed to be used with one of these, and a high-lift jack. I see sooo many people snatching using those... they must be tough...

From what I understand it's just certain parts that are not accessible by vehicle (but you can go in there on foot?). The beach itself is still largely open.

You don't get much for any extras on the vehicle, so if you can take the gear off that you will want for the next vehicle, go for it...

The ZD30 was released in 2000, this iteration is called the DI (for Direct Injection). Some of these engines went bang at around 100,000km, largely due to overfueling/overboosting. You can help avoid...

I had a read of your build topic and looked into that motor - wow, very impressive donk! I'll be watching with interest.

Found out a bit more about my crash from the towie who recovered the GU - I...

CRDs aren't blowing up like the 2000-2003 DI motors sometimes do. That said, they have their issues like any other modern engine, these are some of the known problems they might experience:

Too right.

In my case, complacency was a big factor in shaping the course of events. I've always been a switched-on road user, that's how you stay alive as a motorcyclist. But it's quite a few...

LOL :)

I'll put one of Andy's stickers on the back of the next Patrol.

That's my second crash in 27 years of driving - first was early on, when I was 17 and rolled an LJ Torana that had too...
