Well I had an issue with the brakes on the GQ, so took it to Brakes + $400 later, i had no brakes.
Called them back, they werent interested at all.
took to Another Brake place, same deal, same result same issue.
Took it to Alan at Outback Accessories in Seaford (hartnett Drive), and drove out the
gate, hit the brakes and nearly went through the windscreen!
All it was was the brake bias valve on the rear diff. Awesome service, and price was a shock it was CHEAPER than " bleep in brake experts"...

was the brake pedal hard like the booster had no vacuum, or spongy, or did it just travel to the floor? I have a funny problem with
mine as
well.

the pedal sort of felt normal, but the brakes did VERY VERY VERY VERY little.... new pads, 12mth old discs, new fluid, new master cyl. :(
But over moon now :)
Hes done work for me in the past and have dealt with him, and he will now get all the work on the GU, already got the dual battery sussed out and battery tray... maybe even a bar, but I want brush rails too, not sure if TJM do them,.

Hey Truckie,
So, you CAN be nice sometimes:-)
Good on you mate. Good to read positive
feedback from people whom have received good service. It goes to show that there are businesses out there that trade the old fashioned way.....provide a good service and receive "free" advertising......by word of mouth.
