Makita 18v blower to help getting our alpine fires started, @MudRunnerTD, @matfew, @MB
With your Makita 'saw' in 1 hand & the Makita blower in the other you'll be unstoppable - I feel my reign as 'the god of fire' might be under threat 😳
Haha, I doubt you have much to be worried about! Just gotta keep smashing eBay and dodging the wife's questions.Quote:

There should be a tyre size chooser on the left of the page, that has All Terrains, High Performance, Muddies etc etc. Give it a go and hope it works. The tyres I want are 305/70/16 which are $409, but have been quoted $380 for the same size from another known tyre joint in Maryborough.

Typo on my behalf, I copied and pasted a 15 inch rim size. All depends on if you want a swag or not I guess and it`s there to get people in to buy tyres as you know. I bought 305/70/16 bfg muddies ($350) back in 2009, when they had a Bush Ranger air compressor on offer for four tyres and it saved me buying a compressor from else where to pump up the tyres.Quote:

Link please Phil mate :-) !
Yeah might have to do something with mine next frozen adventure. . . Yep had enough of fuel issues. . .Quote:

The heater elements are avail in a wide variety. i will also be buying a 150mm x 150mm sq. self adhesive patch to stick on the side of the main tank, but this can wait. The heater on the front filter that was passed around is corca 330mm x 100mm but its about $165 to buy, so I think based on how effective and fast the pad heats up, this smaller unit would whip it, plus for the number of uses, its bargain buying I reckon - just have to wait 3 minutes instead of 2 i reckon. Just need to ensure the heater is temp limited as some on ebay heat to 300DgC plus for large bio-fuel tanks, and 12V
Your'e worse than me - where are you going to stick this one?Quote:

Some new coaxial and base for the UHF as mine is never amazing and is too short. Aparently once you pull apart the base it never works the same again on those GME ones. . . Also a new carling switch as one of mine is a bit crap and the plug for the stereo turned up so back to wiring again soon, YAY . . .

Just double check the oil in it before you use it @HodgeQuote:

Thanks for the heads up mate. Will go and have a look. It lifts and lowers fine but I'll check it anyway.Quote:

Mate you were spot on. Either it's not topped up fully or theres none in there. Says it's meant to be 5mm above inner cylinder, in the photo you can see the inner cylinder with no sign of oil above or around it. That's really poor form I reckon.Quote:

@Hodge yep used to get them like that all the time. Near on single warranty claim we had was because of low or no oil. Take it back and they will fill it for you if you want

Yeah normal hydraulic oil mate. Used to keep a drum out the back of the shop for that brand of jack alone. Other than that they worked alright. I have still got one in the shed somewhere.Quote:
