From the LCOOL technical section. It is for 80 series but also applies to 70 http://www.lcool.org/technical/80_series/handbrake.html

Great part of the world. My mother-in-law used to own the Gaffneys Creek hotel. Fond memories.

In a Toyota 79 series there is virtually no difference in weight between the factory alloy wheels & steel wheels.

As I said in my initial post, that is what I have been doing.

Around 8-9000 km.

I've got a FlashLube catch can fitted to my 2011 79 LandCruiser. Works well. My query is what to do with the collected oil on long remote trips. When I did the Canning I put it into a container that stayed in my tool box, that got a bit messy. What are peoples thoughts on putting the oil...

I need to replace the solenoids on my Warn XD9000. Warn p/n 72361. Like a lot of parts these days there doesn't seem to be any about. Does anyone know who might have some or has anyone replaced them with another brand. Thanks, Kevin

Hi, Looking for any feedback on BobJane J-Trax A/T Tyres. They are LT tyre. https://www.bobjane.com.au/a/265-75r16-tyres/j-trax/j-trax-a-t-265-75r16-123s/11870?variant_id=11870 Cheers, Kevin

Any update on how the J-trax tyres went?

When I go remote, Canning, Gunbarrell etc I always have a 2nd spare. Coming out of Weipa I had a almost new BGF AT destroyed when a 10mm spanner, someone must have lost, on a recently graded road went straight thru the sidewall. A TPMS wouldn’t have saved that tyre. Kevin

The performance test he does is with a Redarc regulator connected to a battery. This will not give a true indication of the panels performance as the panel output would be dependent on the SOC of the battery. The only true indication of performance is open circuit voltage and short circuit current.

Thanks, but no, a ordinary grommet wouldn’t do the job.

Has anyone been able to get the rubber mounts that hold the compressor. ARB only list the whole mount assembly, item #22. I just need the rubber mounts i have circled in green.

Get Lost isn’t a app. It’s maps to use in a app, Avenza, Oziexplorer

I was considering switching to this plan, but the 180gb is only on initial sign up, on renewal goes down to 30gb. https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0490/0896/7844/files/CIS_BMPP_16112020.pdf?v=1616985092
