Great! I spoke to the guys at Rainbow Polyurethane / SA Canopy. They do it! I'll take pics of the process and post it.

Alibaba

Thanks Doug. That looks like a great option. Did they reinforce the canopy? I like to carry some chairs and tables on top.

Alibaba

Hi there. Is there any way to make a canvas canopy relatively safe against petty theft? I have three options at the moment: 1. Put aluminium side doors in the current fibre glass canopy. 2. Sell the second car and buy Alu-Cab 3. Canvas canopy (cheap, but is it safe?). My greatest concern is sleeping...

The Kellerman is still working fine, after years. The problem was on my battery system - the ground wire wasn't connected properly on the female plug. I also took a Snomaster (which is the same thing as a Kellerman) on a test trip for two weeks through Botswana and it performed very well. They have ...

Hy park hom seker voor want dis mos 'n stealth.

Lyk darem gelukkig of die voertuig niks oorgekom het nie.

Alibaba

Yea, me too. Does it still exist?

Alibaba

Hi Everybody

I don't have the moola for an Alucab kappie. Do you know of anybody who's modified a normal fibreglass canopy to open with doors that lift up on the sides? Will it weaken the structure of the canopy too much?

Cheers!

Liewe hel! Baie geluk Cassie!

naaaaais!

Lekker Double Mouth net suid van Morganbaai. 10 dae vir R900! Provinsiale parke is die plek om cheap te holiday. Miskien bietjie oor die Keirivier om ou Rooies se nuwe Bridgestones bietjie sand te laat proe. Maar my bokkie is volrond in die anner tyd en ons kan nie te veel hop nie. Wens ek het nie s...

Alibaba

Keenan at Tyger Valley Autoguip offered met the 31" Dueler 694's for R1200 per tyre. I think that's about as low as a dealer will go if he's not your tjomma. So I'll go for that.

Alibaba

Maybe moet jy vir die agterste passasiers 'n bietjie komplimentere peanuts voer....

Alibaba

Niel - about R1300 a pop. What is cheaper that you still rate? I'm going to Steve's place tomorrow.

Alibaba

Thanks! I've read as many reports as possible on the Bridgestone Dueler 694's, even from Aus and the US. On the main very positive and in general rated over the BFG's. The only question mark seems to be about sidewalls. Apparently many sidewall punctures but it seems to be under severe off road cond...

Alibaba

Thanks Tweetjie. That's what Steve above offered me at his shop. I'm gonna take it except if someone else offers me something mo*er of a much better! :)

Alibaba

Jirre, nice! Ek sal een koop as jy dit goedkoop maak eendag. Defnislis.

Alibaba

Ek het ook 'n continuous rated relay gekoop vir R115 of so. Werk goed!

To hell with that, I'm gonna use my bonus to buy four tyres. Can you people please give me advice? I'm looking for 265/75 R15C tyres and I have about R1300 to spend per tyre. I'll do about 30% off road driving, mostly sand to get to fishing spots and 4x4 routes (nothing too hectic - grade3). So, I'l...

Alibaba

dis wat ek gedink het. thanks!

Alibaba

Hi

Does anyone know anything about General RVT-180 tyres? It seems that you don't get them anymore. I can buy four 265/75 R15C's for a reasonable price but I have no clue if they are worth anything. Strangely, you don't get much when you google it.

Cheers

Flip het vir lank sonder 'n dak rondgery na die bakkie gerol het, maar toe moes hy na 'n nuwe reservaat of iets skuif, en hy moes toe die ding weer so half padwaardig kry en al wat hy gehad het was die landrover cabbie. Die probleem met die Cruiser is natuurlik die brandstof. Nie die koste nie, want...

Welcome Moh. Me too man, saving some money for mods....

Check this Hilux out (pity about the Land Rover cabin...). The guy who drove it estimated it has done 700 000 km - the clock came to a standstill years ago but he kept a GPS-log which gave him an accurate idea of the distance. The Land Rover cabin was put on after the bakkie rolled and the cabin was...

SWAMBO says this post was chauvinistic and out of line and dirty and disrespectful. My humblest apologies to all who took offence.

And thanks to everybody who laughed. It is an old joke but I still chuckle everytime...

Ons gaan die eerste tien dae van Mei. Eers in Nossob en dan oor na Mabuasehube. Dit lyk egter of daar nog 'n klein Van Wyk-sampletjie oppad is en ons sal dit dalk later moet skuif om tyd tegee vir die outjie om sy verskyning te maak. Miskien 'n maand of wat later. Wat malaria betref - ek weet die pa...

Does anyone have pricing for Mikem? Is it cheaper than Ironman?

Thanks Scott - at last my question answered. :D

Alibaba

Check daar voor hom - is dit 'n Hilux???

Wat de m@er?

I vote for this Safaripark suggestion. Anything that is not further than 800 km where I can pitch my tent for a reasonable amount is fine with me. 8)

Alibaba

Dankie Eben en Scott. OME is just a little out of my reach now. So I'll probably go for Ironman. I've heard very favourable reports about Ironman as a compromise.

Alibaba

Raait, I had my dual battery system checked out on return from my trip by Jos Hartog (kindly) from Hazard Bonako in Bellville, and everyting is peachy - it delivers the right kind of voltage to the fridge at the back. The problem is therefore with the fridge and not my dual battery system. It is a y...

@ Kaspaas

Hoeveel kan jy my leen?

Weet julle boys wat OME mens sal kos? Ek weet mens kan 'n goeie deal kry by Johann Viljoen, ook bekend as Johann Tyres, wat aktief is in die Cruiser Club, maar ek weet nie hoeveel nie.

Wat is die probleem met Ironman?

Alibaba

Joseph, you just bought yourself a vehicle that you will love more than your wife.... eventually. Congratulations! No worries brother.

Ok, but I think it is itching. The back of the bakkie seems like it is hanging when loaded even though I put heavy stuff on the roof rack at the front. And I'm not talking about the normal Hilux hanggat look...

Alibaba

OME! Hemel, wat's julle boys se brandstofverbruik? Ek het niks spare cash nie!

Howzit howzit! Do you guys know if there is some kind of home suspension test that I can do to see if the suspension on my bakkie is moeg or what? I don't want to spend R8000 or so on Ironman if my current suspension is still ok. I also don't want to ask a dealer since they will of course tell me th...

Dankie My very basic electrical logic tells me it is not the cables. When the battery was fully charged, it still didn't take it right down to -5 or so. It is a Kellerman fridge, which is a chinese model with a SA brand label slapped on, but it worked very well untill now. But I think you're right N...

Hi I installed a very basic double battery system on my "new" 2200 p, with a deep cycle battery in the back. Or rather, a retired auto electrician "oom" did it for my from a circuit drawing that I got from a guy on the Land Cruiser Club's forum. It has one continuous solenoid and...

I looked at a Hilux '89 model this afternoon - 2,2 petrol, but with an Alpine turbo fitted, endorsed by Toyota at the time. The vehicle is in absolutely immaculate original condition, only 150k on the clock, 1 conservative owner. Does anybody know anything about these turbo's? Do they cause problems...
