    Cruise control for 6.5 Chevy, has anyone fitted a kit

    Just wondering if anyone has fitted an aftermarket cruise control kit to a GU fitted with a 6.5 Chevy, I am 3700 klms into a 5500 journey and after 20 mins of driving, all feeling disappears from the right heel as it rests on the go pedal. The car was never fitted with cruise so I imagine I will have to wait till I get to Darwin to sort it anyway but would be good to get some advice from the forum first on a good kit.

    Cheers Ian

    In what terms were you talking about like how much work is involved in fitting one?

    Thanks for the replies, guess the Autron is the way to go.
