Hi there. I recently purchased an 80w canvas folding solar panel. In regards to the regulator that it comes with. I have 19.9 volts coming out of the solar panel. I also have 19.9 volts coming out after the regulator. Is this normal or should it be putting out around 14.4 after the regulator...

I have been doing my head in over this vibration in the front of my ute for the last month. It appears at about 75mk/h and get less worse the faster I go (though it's still noticeable) it wobbles the seats, floor and steering wheel. I have now had the wheels & tyres balanced by 3 different...

Been chasing an annoying vibration in my ute. Originally thought it was a wheel balance thing, as I can feel it in the steering wheel, also can feel it in the car, but three wheel places and 3 different balances later it's still doing it. Replaced the idler arm, had rotors machined but it is...

Anyone interested in swapping my King Sunraysia style rims with 265/70/16 BFG All Terrains with 90% tread. I'm over the heavy steelies as I do more freeway KS these days than 4x4ing. Want to swap for alloys or stock alloys with similar tyres 75 or 70 profile. I'm in Sydney. Cheers.

Just want to see what you guys have paid a mechanic to replace the sump gasket on your D22's?? Mine has sprung a slow leak so I guess I'll get it fixed before too long. Looks like it has been done before, lots of silicone gasket around. Have degreased it all today and will check that it's...

Hi there. I had a CTEK installed for around 12 months now. I have my service battery in the rear of my ute in a toolbox, about 2m away from the alternator and starting battery. I Have run a + cable from my starter battery to my Ctek. Then I have earthed the negative on the CTEK to my chassis. I...

G'day, my ute is currently registered under my name and for private use. I am a sole trader carpenter and pay tax and GST. Should my d22 be registered private or business? I use it to get from job to job, about 40% and about 60% private (kms wise). Last time I went to insure it a few...

Is anyone running this? I have bought it. $50 for the app and another $100 for NSW maps and another $34 for QLD maps. Seems to be pretty good, however they are still adding maps everyday for NSW. About 400 so far and about 700 for QLD. Best thing about it is that it shows where you are even with...

Wondering where the best place to get these two hoses from, the one from turbo to manifold and the other one from manifold to throttle body. (Hope I'm correct in the parts name) Nissan wanted around 160 each. Cannot justify that. Does anyone know the internal dimensions? Thanks Matt

Thinking I might get some rails and steps before tax time. Who is running what and where did they come from? There is a guy in Victoria doing them, 1 piece units with chequer plate step for $985 delivered to sydney. ARB can do them for $1098. These are two piece units with a chequer plate...

G'day. Anyone had a drama with the little sucker in the photo? Fell off my clutch pedal today, looks like the bushes it runs in were shagged so it was making a horrible metal on metal noise. The spring fell out and the pedal still feels normal? In guessing it's a return spring? Anyone had any...

The seal at the rear of my gearbox is leaking, where the tail-shaft goes into the rear housing. Just wondering if this is a DIY job or get a mechanic to do it? I'm mechanically minded but will I need any specific tools? Thanks.

Hi guys, Anyone here that is electrically minded or familiar with waecos care to share their opinion. So I have a brand new 82ah AC Delco deep cycle battery and I have an old cdf35 Waeco and a brand new cfx50 (well impressive the new cfx). I also have a matson 20amp dc to dc charger (don't...

Anyone using one of these? Any pics of it on your navara? At 105mm from top of the deck to top of the roof I think it will maybe look a bit out of place? Like a pergola roof!! Haha. Why does nobody make low profile racks, with aesthetics in mind! I can get a whole setup brand new for 850 but for...

Just a few pics of the old girls setup before we head off for fraser.

Want to swap my cdf35 and cf60 for a cf80. I wish I could keep the two ( use one as a freezer and one as fridge) but my ute tray is just too small to take both of these with all my camping gear. Looking to get a cf80. If not for swaps, am interested in selling both units as a package or...

G'day, Have a 60l waeco. What is the best temperature to have it on for general items? I also have a waeco cool freeze 35 that I'm going to use as a freezer. I guess just have that set on the lowest temperature possible to deep freeze meats? Cheers.

G'day, just starting to get all my stuff in order for my trip to Fraser Island after Christmas and over New Years. I have never been there before and still after much research cannot decide on where to book a site. I'll be in my d22 with roof top tent and my mate will be in his d22 with camper...

Whats everyone's opinions? One is the a/t and the other a duratrac a/t. Only thing is I can't get the duratrac in a 265/70/16. Goodrich are $250 and Goodyear are $285z Would I be right in saying my ute will be a lot more sluggish with 265/75/16s on it, and speedo will read out? Just confused as...
