Until the start of 2016 I did, then I had a legal issue that didn't wrap up til Christmas time, by which point pretty much every other aspect of my life was a wreck from neglect. Definitely no fault of the car, besides the dreaded ABS pump issue she has been an incredible car. But basic transportati...

Thanks for that info mooman. A mate at a large dealer group got pricing for me, even at below trade price it will be about a grand to do all 4 corners, plus the front struts are blown, exhaust manifold or gasket is leaking, aircon needs regassing (or something more) so it looks like my 9 years of CJ...

Out of curiosity, what is the mileage you have on the car? 243,000 :mrgreen: . I suspect the bigger issue would be the creek crossings washing out the grease. Bumblebee and quismiff, I had assumed the bearings would be auto supplier specific, we buy a lot of small bearings for rebuilding electric m...

I've been noticing a bit of feedback under hard braking recently and now i've got underneath to check things out, my front wheel bearings are shot (probably back ones as well, and at least one front strut has blown but that's another matter...). I've got plenty of experience with trailer hubs but no...

Derp, flipped the LED around, problem solved Damn new fangled technology, would never have this trouble with a good old fashioned whale oil interior light!

Robust is an understatement, I used it for pizza delivery in a rural area for 8 months (200kms a night wasn't unusual), carried over half a tonne multiple times (scrap metal not pizzas!), and been up roads that 4WD owners get nervous about. The air intake up high helps with creek crossings

Doesn't switch on for any of the doors, or even in the ON position either.

I've had a quick look and couldn't find anything on this, my interior light doesn't work (09 ES), the bulb was fine but i've put another one in anyway, the fuse was also fine but replaced that too, still no luck. Has anyone else had this issue or am i looking at something like a wire chewed by a mou...
