  1. and darren. Dont worry mate. Ive just done from briisy to perth in my old girl. Just a shy under 5ooo km. Towing a trailer and 3 kids. Let alone the small issues i had. Ps dont leave accesories on when doing a long drive. Stuffs the points up. But most of my issues was the trailer. I couldnt of trusted a better car for the job.
  2. yeh i saw the other thread you had on it. Under youre ride. I have an awning here for mine i have to put up. Just need some 76X25 ally box in black powdercoat. And to make a bag for it. $5o bucks from bunnings, before i left brissy. Cant wait to get on a beach to use it. But want to make it so i can put on the trailer aswell till i get a second one to suit.
  3. You get better racks yet????? Or you making the basket to go straight to roof mounts
  4. next project will be a complete strip removing body from chassie. And a complete overhaul. With as much as i can do with these hands and alot of bourban.
  5. when all is settled ill buy another wd21. This is my 3rd. I love'm just couse i killed 2 already.....lol but i traded one in on a 98 mitsy. mmmmmm wonder if i can squeeze on of them under the bonnet. I do miss the all wheel drive aswell. But yeh another one for a project i think then hand this one down to my oldest son
  6. cut the origional wireing and go to a realay. Just like a set of spotties. I have already looked into it. Just need to do it twice for hi and low beam..... And just wire it into the existing switch on the colum
  7. oh i supose cyril.....lol only couse you have a good state of origin team.......... Go the blues...... Its only 1 game. Thats if this old girl makes it. Ive got a screaming thurst bearing, leaking seal on back diff. Belts are singing there sweet tune. I think the qld plates are the only thing holding her together. Needs a major overhaul. Plus lift. V6 conversion. Auto box. Hell i think an upgrade but she got me here.
  8. the more the marier...... lets try to see if we can get the longest pathy chain going between sites. local state international
  9. looks like it. Maybe we should organise an australian npora getogether, somewhere central to all states. Perhaps SA or something. Enough members and it could be a good bbq and piss up.???????? If there is any interest let me know and ill look into it more.
  10. welcome darren. Ex brissy boy myself. Only moved a week ago. Nice car. Love the aftermarket rust. Tjm or arb....lol. I have the same bar as yours. Does it have a brand on there. Mine had a sticker underneath with scorpian offroad. But cant place the manufacturer. Hope to see some mods from you. See you on the thread.
  11. hi dage. ive had the same problem with my pathy. went to the 4x4 show in brissy not long ago. tjm and arb do not stock or carry anything for our cars anymore. up to 5 years ago they were still listed in the arb book. i know an arb shop owner (arb southside ) AND HE IS GOING TO LET ME KNOW IF ANY PRODUCTS AT ALL TURN UP AT ALL. but dont hold youre breath. just hit the wreckers. if not try the pcoa forum to. its aussie based. i have made most of my own mods. but it will be the same anywhere. good luck and ill post up anything if i can get my hands on gear....matt (jadm4x4)
  12. not hooked up at the moment but m bro had a diesel terano as well and he put a seperate aircon pump in so he kept his aircon aswell. he used a hospital oxygen bottle for under the car. worked just aswell just didnt hold as much air. but the same objective.

  17. hello. I worked as a locksmith for a few years. Sound as if one of the top pins is stuck. Never use an oil based lubricant on them..... Its a big no no.... Us a small amount of silicon spray onside the tumbler. And dont use graphite powder. You will need to remove the ignition switch and take it to a locksmith for new pins. They can re do this by using the existing key. It will cost you but if you drill out the tear away bolts and use an easy out to remove them. The locksmith or a parts supplier can get you new bolts. Good luck. Its actually an easy thing to do, locks are a very basic mechanical item for what they do. Any probs pm me and ill try help you further
  18. hell ill be in for a copy of that to
  19. sounds like a plan. ill just give the old girl a quick service. a good lube up see will be all right. and yeh in about 3 weeks sounds good. ps ill be bringing kids to if no one has any objections???????? probly a good chance to all get together to sort out some pathy issues as well. by the sounds of it between us all we should have a resonable knowledge between us. if not i have a brother who is a mechanic. (works on hummers in brissy) but he has had many of phonecalls over the years with help.
