    Thanks Bradie. Good luck with your new car and mods. My locker stopped working a while back due to a stick or something ripped the vacuum hose out. No big drama and easy fix.

    Thanks Bradie.

    I ordered some new TJM steps this week. $150 bucks off on special. Hopefully they'll arrive in a week or so. A bit of mucking around to fit with the rear air con pipes. Hopefully it's not too much trouble.

    How much clearance did you have between the step mount(left side)and air con pipes?? When mine were fitted they left no clearance and eventually the vibration cut through the air con pipes when I was at the Cape. Spewing!

    Mate it's pretty well hard up against it. I'm gonna put some thick hose in between the bracket and the AC pipe when I get time. No trips planned ATM and it should be ok on the road. The bloke at TJM said it would be fine with some hose.... They are a pain in the bum to fit with all the bits and pieces running along the chassis.

    Did you get your AC fixed? If so, what have you done to prevent it happening again?

    Yeah, they cut off the pipe before the step and at the end of the side step and run flexi pipe on the other side of the chassis. re gassed the system and all good again. They did a pretty good job actually and no chance of it happening again...

    pipe sort of like this
