Very, very close to where I had my accident, and the cyclist was travelling in the same direction I was. Makes my stomach churn just thinking about it. RIP to the biker :)

That section of road is rubbish. Had a mate go down probably that same corner too. We had to use a car to remove his bike from being wedged into the guard rail. He was busted up pretty bad, but nothing life threatening.

Does anyone know how to fit a lift kit to a hilux?

I'm sure I could do it myself, but I've never done it before and rather someone who's done it before help out :)

please help so I can fit some 35" tread!!!

suspension lift kye? if so it'll be easy as

spring and shock are normally separate, so its just a case of out with the old in with the new

Anywhere in Adelaide that will service/diagnose some Cusco coilovers that are knocking?

So far I've tried Manta but they didn't want to touch them.

Pillow ball mounts are stuffed....get rid of them.

Rubber mounts are fine for the street and occasional track work (and much quieter)....unless it's a track car, why bother with those things.

best way to remove battery corrosion?

soapy water and a rag?

baking soda and warm water in a small cup , into a paste then spread on corrosion, rinse with fresh water, but DO NOT get into open cells where you fill water

think you meant distilled water weezy ? it goes inside the battery

i gotta do my whole boot :D

mix it in a sprayer a lot thinner it should bubble a lot then rinse with cool fresh water then dry,,,, any thick corrosion use a toothbrush or soft scrubber..

have fun...lol

PS it eats clothes slowly so do it with old crappy ones

only cost a few bucks to do it, look in the baking isle for baking soda

    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
    • Hmm not really, I'd say its race car life or modified car life when you make 3 or 4 times the power Nissan designed the car for lol. 
    • I'll let others with more breakage chime in, but I can't think of anyone who had a problem with the standard centre plate before they had a problem with the standard gears - the plate generally just gets replaced for safety when the gearset is upgraded. As for the gearsets, its not like they are OK at 600Nm and break at 601. Their longevity is a combination of how much torque you are making and how gentle you are on shifts (or not).
