Roofy,Tigerz would have been selling copies, maybe imported steel I don't know.
Mine are Aussie made for Aussie 4x4s from Aussie steel
I can only control my recovery points, copiers are just theives
Snorkel fitted and finished yesterday . Sorry about the angle of the pic as I parked alongside the fence . Does this mean when you tick things off your wishlist you add two or three or four more things to replace it with ? LOL .
Snorkel looks good mate.. And your right, at least thats what i do.. For every 1 thing i tick off another 2 takes its place haha
thats a pretty flash snorkel mate look at that shine mmmmmmmmmm lacking some bush pinstripeingQuote:

The beaudesert exhaust system has been installed today . 2-3/4 inch system . Early days yet but a quick run around the burbs and I am very very happy . LARGE improvement indeed .
G'day boots,
Love the color mate, just stunning!
All the best with the rest of your mods!
Regards,
RLI
G'day Boots and merry Xmas. did or have you noticed any difference in EGTs yet???
Thanks John . All the best to you and your family aswell . Early days but I reckon they are down 50 deg on average across the board . Will put it out there though that my factory system had been modded somewhat . This beaudesert system really is great , does feel like a few more ponys have been let loose under the bonnet . So I'm happy .
Thats great Only heard good reports of the Beaudesert 2.75" and the Di, seems to be a great match.
Seems the 3".0 allows over boost, gotta help consuption to I would imagine? Smoother all round
Update , the last few months I removed my overlander aux battery and had it as the main starter battery . The original died . So today went to R&J batteries in tullamarine and got a new delcor maintenance free battery . Fitted it in this arvo after work . Hopefully its a great thing .Not much change out of 200 $ so fingers crossed .
sway bar braket mods done and oe castor bushes refitted . some pics for you all .front ones altered with some thread bar .
Today it had a wash and fitted new rear shockers . Went with OME nitrocharger sport . Hopefully funds will allow new front shocks to be fitted before the Aus day meetup weekend.
Replace fluids in trans / transfer / power steer and brakes today . Been using the 4B as a daily a fair bit this calendar year so far, and all these were due so lashed out. Tyre rotation is on the'' to do'' list next.
