hey all I recently bought an old TJM canopy for my D40 and am in the process of stripping to repaint it. in the process I'm going to get it all sorted the way I need it so I'm open to ideas for what I should do while it's apart. First thoughts are to get my lighting in it and run the wiring...

Hi all, what happened to the original member thread? looks like it got deleted, I didn't check it again yesterday...

Hi all I just bought a bluetooth OBD adaptor to run the torque program with my Galaxy S2 but can't get it to pair with the phone as I don't have the PIN. I've tried 0000, 1234, 4321, 6789 and then msg'd the seller who told me to try 8888 and that didn't work either. Has anyone bought one of...

Hi all I bought my 2012 ST new in Feb 2012. Since day one, the auto has always been slow to engage reverse and drive and is particularly bad when going from reverse to drive. I don't notice much these days as I'm used to it, but anytime a none D40 owner gets in my car it reminds me as they'll...

hi all, does anyone have the stats (maybe ZORDO can help here) on who makes the longest front strut for the D40? i have the Bilstein 5100's running Dobinson MD coils on the 2nd clip and only have about 30mm droop. as suggested before, i'm going to drop the spring back to the bottom clip and see...

Hi all I just picked up a set of 20" G2 wheels for my D40 for a steal! Problem is, they have some wear, looks like they've been on the beach or something, quite a bit of surface rust in the dish and on the back side of the wheel. Does anyone know of somewhere to get them re-chromed and have...

hey lads I'm looking to play around with a few option on my Bilsteins. The Dobinsons MD's are too firm on the 2nd clip so I'm going to drop it down to the bottom and maybe even try the factory coils. My spring compressors won't work on the 4WD springs (good for dunnydores etc) so I'm wondering...

hi all after fitting my one piece (no sports bars) hard lid, it gets a flapping/vibration noise on the highway. the plastic is cracked around the LH hinge and i initially thought that was the problem, however it seems the rubber flap at the front has been flapping and hitting the cab - evidence...

Hi all After fitting my lift and getting 70mm in the front, I definitely need UCA's now to clear the top coil bucket. The question is, what the best ones, what are they worth and where do you get them from. Summit have some for under $500, 4WD sell them for $799 on special, Fulcrum have some...

Hi all I just fitted a hard lid to the Nav and am having issues getting the latches in the right spot. If I get them where they lock, they're loose and rattle but if I put them where they'll be tight, they won't lock. Has anyone had this issue, if so, how'd you overcome it or is it just...

Hi all Had some weird happenings with the Nav recently, just want to see if anyone has had the same issue. A few times in the last 2 weeks, I've started the car and walked away and it's stalled within 10-15 secs of being started. When I go to fire it up again, the glow plug light doesn't come...

Hi all After seeing a thread with a few lads wanting trays, I thought I'd post up in here that I work in Operations for Triple M Holdings in Yatala - half way between Brisbane and the Gold Coast. Triple M is the market leader in Australia when it comes to steel and alloy tray bodies. We supply...

hi all I'm about to lift my D40 and was wondering if anyone has used the leaves out of a Nav for a trailer??? If so, how'd they go??? cheers!

hi all I'm looking at getting a snorkel for the Nav and have seen a heap of different options. looking at one of the cheaper ones off eBay (Safari rips anyway) but a few mention thai and spanish builds so my two questions are: is there a difference between snorkels for thai and spanish as well...

Hi everyone, I've started posting some comments on what I'm going to do to my Nav, so I thought I'd best start a thread for it on its own. I bought the car new in Feb 2012 and so far have only added the alloy bullbar, roof racks and spotties. I have sourced all parts for my lift and am waiting...

hi guys, I've just picked up a genuine alloy bar for my 2012 ST but I don't have fitting instructions. does anyone have some or at least the template for where to cut the bar. from what I've seen, the genuine bar is cut lower than aftermarket bars. any help would be appreciated! cheers Brett
