    ALDI Specials for Sat 24th August 2013

    Hi all,

    Thought I would let you know ALDI have some 4wd kit on sale on saturday.

    Maxx track ripoffs and plenty of other gear that might interest.

    I was in there today and have the catalogue here. the Bucket mats set of 4 for $19 is a Bargain. The Seat Covers for the front 2 seats for $29 is also a Bargain for Heavy Duty seat covers. Winner!

    Someone looking for a cheap UHF for the car at $99 you cant go wrong! The tyre repair kist for $14 is cheaper than buying the refills for my ARB kit! might buy some spares

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    I just saw Maxtrac type things for $119 a pair somewhere,
    HD seat covers sound good at that price, are they canvas ???

    Bummer seat covers are for driver and 1.5seat might have to haggle
    no good for two buckets

    Also if buying these bucket style mats be aware of "mat lag"
    this is where the high lip of the mat gets trapped under the throttle pedal,
    thus creating "mat lag" lol

    It says for the seat covers available for Bench Or Bucket seats only so i assume you can get a pair of Buckets. I dont think they will be canvas at $20 but a Strong Nylon type. I have had something similar in teh GQ for 7 or 8 years and they are great.

    Also on the Mat Lag.... I have cut the drivers side bucket mat around the accelerator peddle and the clutch foot rest and it sits perfect without any mat lag.

    TD I saw different brand maxtrax for sale in the annaconda fathers day catalogue sale . They also had some real neat looking alloy extendable tripods for mounting lights and things on , worth a look .
    The price of excellence is dicipline , the cost of mediocrity is dissapointment .
