Got the guys ARB Rockhampton to send me over a 2.5 x 2m rollout awning by Followmont transport. Good effort by both firms. Arrived Emerald overnight.Had it fitted by afternoon. Tested it and took pix. Even our dog mate Spanner likes it as hid drink bowl stays cooler and so does he. Awning takes...

Was looking for funds to get pro drawer for D40. As I found I had all the materials in our sheds, decided to DIY instead. Can now use the $1200 or so for a 2" ARB etc lift and real shockers. Mate gave me unwanted marine carpet to finish it all off. I re-cycled some re-cycled steel RHS and some...

My D40 d/cab. A great rig out side but I want to get inside. The problem. My new Engel 240v r/angle plug into base of fridge is a lousy connection. Is supposed to take over powering when 240v lead plugged in while the vehicle 12v one is still alive. While it looked like the 240v was powering...

My red stop & tail lites have stopped working. We checked all fuses in cabin & under bonnet. OK. I removed both dual filament globes but they tested perfect. As assembly is plastic, it has a separate wire to get to earth and that seems ok. Dealers also checked what we checked. Still no answer...

On my last trip in the Navara D 40 we got new in June '09, from Emerald Q down to Bundaberg, I left with a full tank and filled up at 530kms which took only 36 litres. One of the guys at our work figured it out to be doing 6.8 Litres per 100kms with the cruise set on 110 where that is legal or...

I need to run a wire through the firewall to a light duty switch on dash to operate the big relay (not those little,often troublesome mini black relays) which incorporates a fuse,to provide power to my two driving lights,probably Ciebe's. The Nissan factory has done a top job with the engine...

I never took one for a test drive.had read lots of road tests including the reasonably accurate* ones in 4WD Monthly of six of the best.*One reviewer should have read their own specs sheet."Don't load it too much as the motor struggles" or something like that. Now the facts. The engine has...

Well my dog Spanner is actually as I guess I will just be his chauffeur and make the payments. Have had seven years of Nissan before with zero problems so look forward to a repeat performance.

Swatted up on the six vehicle tests in 4x4 Monthly and also the caravan forums. We had the last of the 'real' solid axles Hiluxes d/cabs from new. Took it on 22 day Kimberley with the Portmans. Magic adventure. Here in Emerald,Qld, almost every second rig is a dual cab or tray 4x4. Was easy to...
