Not a question, but just a statement. I thought that I had stuck a fair bit on my Jack( Bull bar, Tow Bar, Roof Rack, Shower,Extra 12v Plug in rear, Side Steps,Arctic Blue Headlights, Canvas Floor and Wall protection front and rear, Probably more but that's all that comes to mind) but my effort pales into insignifance when I read the add on's in the Rig section. No wonder TJM etc are doing well.

Boys (no matter how old) will always love their toys !
I think I'm almost done and I believe that most of it is warranted as safety/performance gear but I won't deny it's fun too. Kinda reminds me of the days when I was driving GT's and Monaro's for fun.Do or Do Not - there is no try !

Add to that list, our Jack also has; Duel tanks (205 Ltrs), OME
suspension, dual batteries, UHF & HF radios, 10 stack CD, BFGs, roof basket for extra spare, compass, cargo barrier, 2 extinguishers,
home made shelf system to take fridge and recovery gear, etc., etc.
I just poor money in the top and it goes more
places. It is a very capable and truck now.
Keep spending and supporting those 4WD suppliers.
Happy trails, Mike.

Mike, I am interested in your dual fuel tanks. Where did you get them from and was the cost exorbitant.? Are you happy with the ome
suspension.?

Terry, I had them fitted at 4WD Systems, Gillies Plains,
Adelaide. I can't say I would recommend them, as we have had several dramas with them. TJM also fit dual tanks, if pressed, and if I were starting again, I would use theirs. They cost just over $1000 in 2000.
I am extremely happy with the OME
suspension, we had a 25mm lift done at the same time and the job is fine.

Add all the camping gear to that...
Add all the supplies we buy at small townships....
The number of businesses we support is incredible!
I just can't understand (looking at all that) that the government keeps closing down destinations and tracks and making it harder for us to visit.

Great to see so many others who are keen to make their vehicle a personalised item.
There always seems to be another gadget that will make the next trip easier or more fun.
Keep supporting the 4wd shops and clubs and hey they may even support us.
