Ruffnuts

I recently bought some sheepskins for the 105 series from a bloke who's name I can't remember just at the moment, but his business is on Warrigal Road, just near the corner of North Rd (I believe you're in Cranbourne or close to...). Cost me $200 for both front buckets and they're pretty well made. Sheepskin tops and sides, with synthetic on the backs. They fit better than any others I've had in the past... no affiliations etc...just a happy customer.

Given that we're about to have a billy lid, I've not bothered with the rear one, but may get canvas for the rear for obvious reasons...

Cheers,

Can vouch for the ruffnuts.Just got one custom made for my stratos suspension seat in my troopy!! Perfect.Even give you personlised embroidery for nix.Why I like them most(from a smokers point of view) is they claim that a smouldering ciggie wont burn thru cover for about 30seconds.(IT HAPPENS on the odd occasion,where the hot tip falls off and the mad panic begins!! So would greatly protect my investment in the seat)comfort is good,but not like sheepskin.They even made me some covers for the armrests too.Well priced compared to sheepskin and they can be removed and machine washed.Matt is the guy to deal with,who I found extremely helpful and friendly,as are all I spoke to at the firm.Give em a go!!

I'll be serious now, I decided to get those good looking covers, not the cow skins...yuk but all the fibres kept coming off them and stuck to my clothes.but if you say a good set of sheep skin covers are near $700 just for the front they must be extremely good quality, I paid about $90 for a pair at Supercheap for the truck I use to drive and they lasted a long time but they got so much bulldust in them , but are those Supercheap wools real ????

Truckster,
Yes I have a set, drivers seat lasted around 200K km. They are just tough velour. I wasnt impressed with the fit and they stretch only a little bit. Seats were a bit crushed on corners etc. Im sure they could have done a better job
They wash well and have just strips of elastic for tie downs

I saw some sheep skins where just the seat (and backrest) area were skin and the rest was fabric, this brought the price way down

Ive just ordered a new (dingo) canvas one for the drivers seat and reusing the rest in the new wagon.
