Tasted like Tiger Quoll to me! Then again it could just have been your camp oven which makes everything taste like Tiger Quoll!

Yes I wouldn't say that ours (GVM upgrade 3.9t & drum brake rear - so RDA/EBC only on the front) brakes like a modern lightweight car, but the difference between this set up (including stock brake...

Am amazed that you were a bit underwhelmed with the EBC pads! Did you follow their bedding in instructions to the letter? Maybe the DBA rotors are somehow less effective than the RDA Slotted &...

Fair enough - an induction cooker would be nice. Mate has one in his expedition Canter. FWIW he went through several before finding one he liked.All the cheap ones had poor heat control (ie. full...

What for?
ie.What do you want to run from it?

When I fitted the two singles & centre console (from an ST) into my DX (& removed the 1.5 bench seat taking it from a '3 seater' to a two seater) I took it to VicRoads as was supposedly required....

Doesn't sound right to me. My Victron Phoenix 350w inverter charges my Makita batteries without problem, one at a time using a Makita fast charger. Initially I had a 30 amp circuit breaker but it...

It'll certainly do the job, but if that is it's main job it's a huge overkill. We carry a Makita Chainsaw & an impact driver which use 18v batteries. I charge them on a rapid charger (admittedly one...

Yep fair enough , the Rooftop maps do definitely look better. However the new Hema map set for the high country might come a reasonable second best. At the scale in Winnies screen shot Rooftop has...

Don't know how it compares, but Hema just released an update for their 4wd app which includes a number of new maps, including 8 maps covering the Vic High Country with most, if not all tracks named....

Well it looks like it's happening. The money we applied to get out of our super was withdrawn today, so should hit our bank account tomorrow or Monday. It is to pay for the OKA camper we are buying....

Got mine from Amazon Australia - but when I looked a couple of days after mine arrived (sent from the US & got to me quicker than stuff ordered in Oz) it was listed as not currently available. ...

After being disappointed by one of those huge hand held spotlights which plug into a car's 12v socket, put out a zillion candlepower (& double as a 'heater'), when a friend recently showed me his...

Doesn't sound good, but fingers crossed.

Details please Hodge

I *think* the problem was that with the heat generated in the cylinder head, that over time the chrome plating lets go & when you try to unscrew the the hose it jams up the thread.

Yep, that's what I have. I use mine with an air tank (Boss aluminium tanks are very well made & light). Just don't make the mistake I made with it. If using the Boss supplied braided hose with...

Good choice I reckon, was looking at them recently. The Redarc BCDC1240 (also with changeover relay setup) is keeping us going ok, but when the day comes that either it karks it, or batteries need...

With the tyre deflated. No bead breaking required.

When the time comes to get new tyres I'll consider drilling second holes in the rims just for the valve mounted TPMS, plus will fit short metal valve stems. Until then I'm stuck with rubber valve...

Emergency Tyre Valves.

Do you carry any? I'm asking because I thought I did until I realised today that the ones I've been carrying require the tyre to be taken, at least partially, off the rim...

Yup! :biggrin: I have been known to do that with my older Zassenhaus (wooden box with cast iron burrs) grinder. I now have a much smaller Porlex (stainless tubular with ceramic burrs) grinder - not...

Believe me I considered a hand saw, I already have a couple of bow saws, & I looked at a few folding types. If it were for short holidays or weekends away no probs, but for full time daily use - I...

Had a late night ebay splurge. :)

We hope to fall into a pattern of using the ‘choofa’ I made from a 9Kg gas bottle for cooking as the norm, rather than using gas - it allows for use of an ‘open’...

Paid $35 to get 6 tyres rotated & re-balanced. Thought that was pretty good value. Thumbs up to Doherty Clark in Sebastopol, Ballarat.
