    The tyre shop I use have those rated torque extensions for their rattle guns. A couple of them shattered after prolonged use. They have started using a normal extension to get the nuts tight then swapped to the rated extension. I have had no problems, but I usually check the nuts with a torque wrench at home.

    Is the tyre shop the regular one you use? If it is, and they are over tightening the wheel nuts they may be weakening the studs.

    we are getting a new renalt master delivered in a week then had planned to sell the ford! Now I've been told there's a 6 month wait on pannel beaters due to previous storms in Brisbane.

    Got my new eye glasses on Friday, only to discover that they have been made incorrectly.

    They were that bad that I can see better with no glasses.
    Now have to wait for up to another 2 weeks for them to correct the stuff up.

    Damn, gotta hate that! Did you end up getting any panel damage in your front drivers door from that bog hole at Tallarook that you were trying to to winch around the corner?

    Damn. The reason they did that was the circuit for the hot water is billed at a MUCH LOWER PRICE. Less than half. Very illegal to hook it up like that but expect your power bill to increase significantly. Sorry mate.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.
