Our Van is a 2008 21ft Top Ender and we are very happy with it. The thing that has gone wrong with it when we did the Gibb River Road in 2010 was that the power Circuit Breaker dropped off which turned the mains power off. After some cussing and kick things around in bad temper I found that the breaker was off. So with quit a bit of humility I quietly turned it on and behaved like the gentleman that I am. To sum Up Best Van on the market and the after sale service is unequalled in the trade

I have joined the site and I find refreshing that people of like mind regardless of their choice in Vans, can talk about their experiences and post photos. It's a great site and you may learn a few trick along the way. I highly recommend the site

Hi Stu, Yes we do, when we had the Auto coupler fitted by Joe Mc Ginnes he modified the Hinged coupling that hooks onto the chains to allow it to slide rather than be fixed. But,however I can see that the WDH would not be manditory if you as I do have air bag assist on the rear springs. Tex

Hi Folks, I have done it, I had the new Auto Coupler retro fitted to my LC76 and Top Ender by Joe Mc Guinnes at Lithgow,( had the Mc Hitch fitted by Tom 2 yrs ago). Just great easy to hitch up and disconnect. Best money I've spent, I can recommend this set up to all.

Hi Carl & Tricia, I had a similar problem and it was resolved with new monitor and replacing the wiring at the barn doors as the wiring had frayed at that point. But if you are within the warranty period you can get the whole system replaced. Tex

G'day John and Colin, I have a 6 ton McHitch and love it but in say that I've contacted Joe at Lithgow and he stated that the existing hitch can be retro fit with the new coupling for about $180.00. so .When you start adding up the pennies it is a cheaper option than buying the complete unit would you say.

Hi Savo, I got mine when I purchased my LC76, as far as cost unknown tech details yep!!. All I know is it works Tex

Hi Rob, I have a ERP unit installed on my LC76 and I can assure you that the truck is not rusting. This unit uses a electronic pulse to prevent corrosion. Tex

Hi All, Just been in the BOG forum and learned about a new free APP that has just been released. It is Australian Bites and Stings it very comprehensive on all manner of bites and stings of all Australian critters.

Merry Xmas and a very happy new year to all fellow members of this forum. I hope and pray all will travel safely on the road this coming festive season. look out and beware of the idiots on the road. Carol and Ian

Hi to All, We and I mean Carol and myself are still here at Standown Park having a lovely time with Rod and Pam. We enjoyed the Kedron Gathering and love the atmosphere that you all generated a great meeting. Unfortunately another Caravan Club has arrived with a completely opposite attitude to life. Even the others that are regulars here at Standown have made comment of the difference between the two groups. This Caravan Club which will remain nameless is decidedly unfriendly to everybody outside their club. But on a brighter note the regulars including Rod and Pam have commented on the friendly attitude of the KOGGERs and that they all enjoyed your Friendly and pleasant out look . Again as first timers at a gathering both Carol and I had a very enjoyable time with you all, thanks for having us. Carol and Ian

Hi Richard, You will find that there are qty 4 bolts/srcew/fasters that secure the mirror to your LC76/79/ all 70 series LC. T he top 2 utilise the original mounting holes, the second 2 are drilled lower down on the door. The additional 2 have a backing plate to secure the mirrors to the door. and the job only took about 1 hour to complete. I am more than happy with mine. Tex

Hi Richard and Tony, I have the Clear view mirrors fitted to my LC76 and yes they drill 2 holes in each door to give additional security for the mounting. See the web site. I am more than happy with the mirrors and would recommend them to everybody that may be interested in fitting them. They can be supplied and fitted by ARB TJM at the same price as at the factory. The best mirrors ever. Tex

Hi All, We have done the GRR, the Plenty Hwy and the Oonandatta track and we didn't use the WD bars at all. After watch the video of the Gall Boys ripping off the tow bar on their Toyota Prado. I would suggest that when in doubt don't.

Well there you with all the good advice we missed the obvious, but still you and we all are much wiser for the experience.
