Super jealous of those reduction gears guys. Made everything look so much easier, less stress on the vehicle.Quote:

Yeah that's crazy the difference between me & AB coming up is nuts. . . Also had the fuel pump still not performing like it should so needed to give it a bit more of a floggn'. Bloody thing back to dieseltec but apart from that the thing is going awesome. . .

Brilliant trip guys, great company.
A few photos of last weekends adventure in the mountains. What an awesome weekend all round, the GQ went wicked, though although not entirely perfect. Back to Dieseltec next week for a final tweak to get the thing pretty much perfect hopefully.

Best times wazza? Break the winch ? ? . . .

Repaired the flare and torn tabs broken last weekend, also fixed the dent in the drivers side plastic scuff pad and polished out the panel dent so its hardly noticeable. Removed the 200a/hr battery that dropped a cell, also on the same weekend as the flare damage, and now looking for a replacement, thinking along the lines of the Optima D31T, probably 2 of them. Should have enough grunt for the rear winch and also run the fridge and coffee machine nicely.
Call around to my head office over in Rowville. They have a battery called an Ultimate UL-230
It’s a huge sucker with 230 ah AGM deepcycle

Those pics make sic sick with jealousy!!!
Thanks for that, they are not far from , maybe 10 minutes. Can't see a CCA rating though - this is part of the 'picture' to some degree. Vehicle can sit on maintenance charge for a couple of months and not move, then out we go and give the battery a work out for a weekend and back to sleep. Concerned about sulphation, and yes use a CTEK charger plus an addition de-sulphation device as well. No doubt a few bucks for this monster so need to be sure its the right one and that my 'useage style' does not kill it prematurely. I will give the office a call in the morning and have a chat.Quote:

Another great weekend, and walked away with more confidence and skills I believe.Quote:

If you call, Ask for Albert and I will email him to let him know. I work in Qld
That battery has a cca rating of 987 cca
If it’s let sit on the Ctek that should be fine as they go into hibernation after 10 days. We often sell these for emergency generators so they sit on float charge mostly in that application. We also have a Gel version

@Ben-e-boy
^^^ Gawd!!! Love the flex!!!
all those photos can be viewed via the links in my signature.
OK< battery is $540 plus gst, looks good as against the Optima which would give me 150a/hr for two units at circa $800 and similar CCA. Will check it fits and take the step soon - one avail in Melb. By comparison i checked the same size/spec battery made by CAT and its $1250!!!!Quote:
