yeah figured you'd be paying a premium for the vw, they get good reviews. as much as it pains me to point you there, but get onto 3wd craption if you haven't already & have a look through the model specific tech sections & see what drama's people are having. http://www.4wdaction.com.au/forum...

what about the dak dak amarok, you can be down with the euro crowd?

sure would have been an interesting ride, the old sierra's aren't the most stable things standard. they love the mud down in tassie & thats a good example of the damage that it does. personally i don't enjoy mud plugging much, doesn't really take much skill to pin it to get through. i would rath...

wasn't the 240 the older rodeo cab, rather than the d-max/colorado generation. ?

:lol: the previous shape D-Max/Colorado would be my other choice. funny thing is the original great wall 4x4 thing looks very similar in front end styling to the current colorado, i think they were onto something. :? :vomit: http://www.allvehicleaccessories.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/GREAT-WA...

more suzuki carnage brought to you by a lack of maintenance... But on the way home the rear end locked up on me on the highway when I was doing 80kmph :/. So it hopped along for say 50m before sliding out sideays and going drivers side A pillar into the road > roof > passenger rear corner, and did a...

what about a D22?


have you had a suss of the Isuzu D-Max?

following on from the carnage above





he gearboxed himself

its LHD so its in the USA or some other mongoloid country & going by the barwork & winch i'd say it gets used off road.

yeah it would go alright. 8-) imagine the racket this would have made... https://fbcdn-sphotos-f-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/543989_4908964197170_512487996_n.jpg So the jackshaft decided to let loose last night and went to town on my gearbox. I'm missing a few inches off the rear of the gearbox, ...

will make the triton look good

at least there will be heaps of room for his turban, crafty curry niggers built the cab in those thing like a block of flats to accommodate their towel heads.

yeah the cruiser DOHC straight six is another grunter... there is no substitute for cubes, even more so when boosted. Mr Bozz, the other style of hitch you're talking about is the TREG coupling, both work well. Check out myswag for all things camping, good forum just full of old cunts http://www.mys...

Someone in aus build one of these for the street pleaseeeeee http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KCMtVawd_Vo" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; there are a few boosted patrols running the 4.8l TB48 straight 6 here but are mainly outback challenge/winch trucks rather than sand drags like the ...

cheer bozz & yeah jud i've had heaps of people wonder how i'm going to fit in there. the thing is good for 300kg's so you can get jiggy jiggy with the missus. :giggity: seeing you've got a wife & squids why not a proper tent trailer, like the camper trailers so you have a double bed on the d...

It's a dual cab ute, they all have square wheels & no suspension.

The triton isn't a bad thing, can get them with a factory rear diff lock, personally I'd be looking at the d22 or the triton.

not sure if it's possible over there with the RWC crap you guys have to deal with, but you could always buy a junker trailer & do the old plate swap on it. Here's what I did to the trailer, from the ad http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r136/atari4x4/Silver%20Duchess/bf32de33.jpg http://i143.pho...

i'll smash something together... i'm bit of a photo whore so there are heaps of pics. what i've found that the trailer suspension doesn't do a great deal offroad as the thing pivots off the hitch, it's the bumps & corrugations where it gets a bit of a work out. mines just running slipper springs...

it's awesome fun, adds another dimension to wheeling as you've got to think about it that little bit more. mine was just a box trailer that i gave a birthday. it's a 5x3.5". the roof top tents when packed up are 5x4" & can be had off ebay for around $600-700. takes me about 5 minutes t...

will try have a suss, don't really know how to use failbook. i've got it but it just annoys the hell out of me.

yeah both my Vitara's are IFS & both have had no swaybars refitted once lifted... they kind of handle like a drunken horse, you point them in the right direction, they sort of turn, lean, pitch & roll all at the same time. sometimes it feels i could drag my fingers on the road if i lent out ...

cheers judy, that trailer i knocked up last year cost me just under 2k to put together minus the wheels & tyres that i had... it's just so plush to sleep in, think i will struggle sleeping in a swag again. that rape shack had nothing on the rape bus we found & all the other rape villages tuc...
