[79 series GX ute as tow vehicle for our Top Ender]

Hello Andy & Di..

we towed our atv with a GXL for a couple of years. I spent quite a bit of $$ to it to make it a good tow vehicle but it never was all that good. used to run all over the road on roads that were not perfect.anthing over 90KPH was a bit dangerous. found it very cramped in the cab with very little leg/foot room.

best thing i ever did was sell it & bought the chev.

cheers Danny

[Electric Kettle]

hello Ian..

we have the 1800w inverter & use it a lot for the pod machine. find that using it for the elec kettle is a bit of a drain on the AGM batteries. prefer to use gas for that.

Cheers danny

Sounds like a good decision..think I will stick with AGM for a couple more years..

Try sliding the lock to the locked position and that should expose another screw..

We have had the hawkshead TPMS for 3 years now and still going well..

The alarm went off just out of coolgardie the other day to let me know that the front tyre was down on pressure..Sure enough it had a screw in it but no harm done...

if you have a DC/DC charger it probably won't back feed..my redarc won't.

[TPMS]

Thanks folks..

I couldn't find australian distributor either..thought it would be quicker rather than wait for them from the states...

But have a couple on the way...

Cheers Danny

Ps. Don't park near centre link..

[TPMS]

Evening all..

Wondering if anyone knows if there is an Aussie dealer for Hawshead TPMS..

Parked the chev in front of centre link Busselton this morning to go to woollies and some little darling removed 2 sensors ?????

Cheers for now

Good morning

Just wondering if you used it on chassis only or on the paint??

I haven't read a label but I suppose dilution rate & time you leave it on are all explained..

[oil for new chev?]

looks like i pressed the wrong button there a few times..

yes it is CJ4 but not available in the supacheap etc shops in mildura..should be no probs getting it at the truck outlets around the country..valvoline/cummins might be the best option..

thanks Tony.
