How do the authorities control the meat that is transported around in the various countries, that place a ban on bringing meat & vegetables into their countries? Would you have to drive around with proof of where the meat & veg was purchased or are the controls just done at the Border posts...

All done my computer animation. Meaningless until they actually make one that works.

Cameron,
You can also try JJ's Motor Works in Pietermaritzburg. When I lived there I used to use him to do the repairs on my Hilux's. He did his trade test on these type of vehicles so knows them well. I have not used him since 2008 so don't know what his set up is like now.

You got a green name, suppose it's good to go green these days. I suppose that means you are a forum fun cop???

Val, What club you belong to with the pink User Name?

Don't worry it happens. Everyone makes mistakes.... that's how I came to be!

Sounds like a tainted Hilux Club.

It was untill they build a new dam and flooded half of the rapids. You use to be able to raft from the Kariba dam wall but Uganda wanted more hidro power so the ended up building another dam wall about 10km down. Ended up making another smaller dam below the Kariba dam. Its the second best commerci...

It's of course also possible that the battery heated up and exploded without causing a fire, but that a direct short occurred within the remains of the GPS unit and if the charger were still energised, could have caused the lighter socket or the lighter plug to heat to the point that it started fla...

OOOOMS wrote:As ek Bridgestone hoor wil ek Kotz......never ever again......

I never used the 694 and always thought of it as a town tyre. Not really an off road tyre, but probably great on a SUV. But since I have never used it and never will I really cannot comment on the tyre itself.

Mountain Man

Remember that on a 10J rim the smallest tyre you can fit is a 285 tyre, depending on the profile this may be too tall for the standard suspension. For example 285/75/16 is the same as a 33" tyre. This is a very big tyre and I have them on my Cruiser with an after market suspension. If you are f...

Hi guys, I have a 2009 double cab and am struggling to fit a 10J rim on as the break caliper is to big for and touches the rim. It's a 10j rim that I love and really want on the bukkie. What can I do to so they fit? Spacers? If so how big? Get a different 10j rim? If so where as no one seems to hav...

Howzit guys, I need a little advise on my 1995 SFA (265000km). I recently had the engine and brake system overhauled and it is running like a bomb. However there are still a few areas of concern: 1. The clutch is on its way out - can get a 3-in-1 kit, installed with 12 month guarantee for R3500 (go...

I think it is cheaper to lower tyre pressure.

I don't know if it has been mentioned already, but there is an article in the February 2012 SA4X4 on Khaudum. It pretty much says what has already been discussed here.

note to self dont buy 33" or biger haha why Too expensive. You will need to to a front axle move to accommodate the 33's and 35's Have 285/75/16 on the Cruiser. :taunt: No axle move needed. So get yourself a Cruiser and you can play with bigger wheels. Also with 170Kw there is more than enough...

Not lekker! Ja, it looks like a corpse with a sheet over it on the far side. :( Also looks like the rear of the other vehicle is facing the camera, so it could just be that the rear crumple zone is impacted, making it look a lot worse.

I also thought a lot about doing a swap like that, but there are two sides to that. The main factors why I do not do it at this stage is: What do I do with the extra 100kw that I cannot do now I lose the extra space in the cab The price difference So it is once again a personal choice. That is why ...
