Whatever happened to Ozi?

I think he has been about...uses different names...but uses the same style....easy to pick...usually bagging someone for not using the same gear as him...harmless , but probably does know a bit..pity he cant use his knowledge a bit more constructively instead of critisising..thats my opimion for what its worth (if anything )...cheers

He can occasionally be found on the overlander forum. These days he does not seem to be as vociferous (I had to look that one up in the dictionary).

If you ignored his vociferousness (I'm getting carried away now) he actually had some worthwhile comments and I found his information very helpful.

Hi Wombat,

I think it was somewhere in January nor February when Ozi declared that he was leaving the forum as he was being given too much stick from some of the other partcipants in this forum. He was a knowledgible fella but always answered a question with a question which drove some people insane.

I have a tank manufactured by Brown Davies, I think. They are in Melbourne.

Look forward to catching up with you at the end of the month.
Cheers, Willem
Never a dull moment

He was run out of town... Like a fart in the wind thankfully...

But hes still here, Virtual bullets dont work. He has around 4 different names, me and Ray were discussing it one day, we figured out 4 of them!

Hi Wombat,

I bought my Redarc battt isolator through him and he was quite helpful. I think he's on holidays at the moment.
About your tank, I got mine from Long Range Automotive in Lilydale. Reasonable happy with it. It seems to hang down a little lower that the stock tank but I didn't reaise they will build to your specs. I think if I was to do it again I would have the front of the tank height say 30mm shorter so the bottom of the tank falls towards the rear....if that makes any sense.

hi wombat.....i got the 130 ltr fitted to my surf mobile from ARB about 9 months ago off the top of my head it cost about 1300 ish it is really good same filler point as the normal tank and it dosnt hang down under the chassie (spell check) and there is alittle bit off room left incase i wanna make up a water tank for it as well...b4 i went to arb i check out tjm and they informed me that NO ONE made tanks that big for surfs....so as always check around hope this helps

cheers rexy

Wombat it was probably words like 'vociferous' that cheezed him off...hahah

Spoke to Al about the LRT, but we;re going with std tank and using LPG as backup, can't replace the Std tank anyway, apparently, I got lost in the technical stuff the big guy was talking about. He's got the hydraulic legs for the van, and now is changing the suspension on the cruiser....!!

Is Avocado suprise ok for you on the 31st? (Or don't you want Willem to see your party trick....:)
