    G'day sr06,
    I,ve just had the Counteract product installed on the GU by the boys at
    Torq4x4 at Browns plains, Qld.Good job.
    Had ERPS on my GQ ute for 8 years and sold it with ute still working fine. I beleive it worked well, having done numerous trips to all the local islands and beaches, and having never been garaged and rarely washed (only after coming off sand ) the vehicle was rust free and paint remained shiny.

    Cheers
    Mal

    Yeah I think they certainly help keep the cancer at bay.
    11 years ago I paid $400.
    Around $700 for "heavy duty" model, fitted.
    Give Dave or Murray a bell at Torq4x4.
    Cheers.

    Paid $640 delivered for the HD model with 4 tabs, been on now for 2 years, the brake discs barely get any rust on them after truck sitting for months, (between repairs) seems to be working fine. Piece of cake to install, just follow instructions, peel and stick, and wire up.

    I've not heard anything about auto protect. There are a few different solutions out there but I've only heard good reports about ERPS and Couplertec. You can self install the Couplertec kits without too much trouble. Have a look at some info on them here http://www.torq4x4.com.au/products/v...n/rustproofing

    ERPS is a great system, Get a 10 pad for a patrol wagon. this will ensure good protection. Volts are about 460.
