    Just joined from Brisbane.

    Have a 1995 GQ RX 2.8 manual that I have owned from late 90s, back in NSW had been a good family adventure vehicle, kids loved it and all learned to drive truck style in it.

    But getting old in the tooth and I need to connect with similar others for parts and knowledge.
    That's what I am doing here.

    Anybody in Brisbane in the same boat I would be happy to connect.

    6.6 Duramax... ? Ahh... are they the diesel v8 replacement jobs?

    I did determine once to keep the vehicle stock standard (well I did replace the skinny 16inch wheels with wider 15 inch Sunrisers, but we all did...)

    I assume parts are now an issue, if you don't have a second hand source, so I would have to consider anything I guess, and I am on my second engine...

    speaking of parts, where are people sourcing GQ parts, eg if I wanted a PTO unit?

    Ahh, I see AB got a parts link, nice.
