Re: Who Do You Insure Your Bakkie With?
Hi Luke, Haven't been on the FORUM for quite a while, but also noticed that nobody has responded to your question. The 'best insurance deal' will obviously depend on your risk profile, especially with regard to any claims during the past 5 years. Extras on our vehicles may indeed be insured over and...

Re: 2005 KZTE Purchase thoughts
A bit late on the topic, but here are my views. I bought my 2004 KZ in 2007 from the first owner with 47k km on the clock. It is now sitting at 208k and to date only had a clutch replacement, which cost me R4500. The cambelt replacement at 140k cost me R600 - R300 for the OE belt and R300 for labor....

Re: Rough Rider
Terry, I think your problem is not an isolated one, but typical of most bakkies. I drive a KZ with BFG's and mostly run 2 bar in front and 1.8 in the back, and it is still an uncomfortable ride to be honest (i'm surprised you are experiencing the same with the new GD6!). In my opinion, BFG's and Hil...

At home we use a water dispenser which takes the 20 liter water bottles, and whenever we do long trips I fill the tank in my drawer system with 3 of these...currently costs R23 per bottle if we fill up ...

Hi Mervyn. I don't have a clue what is causing the rattling noise, but wonder why you are using 10 ppm or even 50 ppm diesel ? I have tried 10 ppm a while ago for 2 tanks, and the truck was not happy at all. With 50 she is slightly better but still sluggish ! For me 500 ppm works the best and the im...

Dink dit was so in die omgewing van R1400 gewees maar seker nou ietwat duurder.
