Re: News: Jeep Launches Six New Concept Vehicles Ahead of Ea
Wonder if they'll bring any to NZ/Aus? the 6.4 V8 would be very fun off road I reckon, cause it's a hell of a lot of fun on the road!

Re: commodore v6 for hilux?

Re: Custom sump for 1uzfe in 84 hilux surf
I got one for the v6 in my hilux from http://www.asroilpans.com/ in aussie when I did my high steer. They're use to doing oil pans and pickups for hiluxes so would be very surprised if it's not a common one for them.

Re: 03 Grand Cherokee - Power steering pressure hose leak
I got a mobile pirtek guy to do a couple of hoses for me, would easily make that up. He made up a hose similar to the top half of yours with four fittings a bit of flex hose and bent up a piece of solid for 100 cash. Thought it was very reasonable.

Re: Wanting to do Cape York
See how the hire website says by-pass tracks. If you're wanting to do an off road trip to the cape you need a capable truck, not a rented ute with a kitchen. What about just using your mates trucks and then hiring dirt bikes, having turns on different days etc?? My mates go every year around Septemb...

I've got an almost new steering system that I'm ripping out to replace with hi-steer. Will only have done 2000-3000ks since I put it on. J-arm, Relay rod, Drag link and Tie rods. All from Toyota. Got the steering box rebuilt too but there was a bit of wear inside the box so there's a small amount of...

Re: Not sure what to buy - Family vs 4wd....
I would agree with the dealer about the 3.0 patrol, my work mate got a new one at the start of the year and it's a lot of vehicle to move around with that motor. If you enjoyed the patrol, what about just getting a lwb? The 4.8 petrol ones are loved over here

Re: failed cert - after your opinions
You shouldn't need a remote booster on a surf, mine has passed two certs on 35s, still drums on the rear. Did you bed them in properly when you bought the pads, could be something as simple as that?
