Went to bunyip state park yesterday with a fellow member from the Facebook page. Awesome fun day. Tracks were completely bone dry too so it was just easy.
And a burnt out ute (mate says it looks like a ford courier)

Ended up paying more as I asked for a Compression test, new glow plugs and Valve clearances were adjusted. Took mine to a specialist 4x4 shop. Prado is running really sweet now. Should be less black smoke?
Many thanks Bushy. I like em a lot. May have to get a set of those?

The covers come off reasonably easily too. Tested them today by taking the dog for a run and swim at the beach. He sits in the front seat with his head out the window. After the beach he got a wash at the doggy wash at the caltx servo. Seat covers soaked it all up and just need a quick wipe to lose the beach sand.Dave

Replaced 4 rotors and shoes. Adjusted handbrake. Used RDA semi heavy duty pads. These have a wide temperature range so should perform well around town and long descents (time will tell).
Only beded them in so far. I've eliminated the pedal pulsing and no more squeal yeah.
$356.00 all up inc high temp grease.
Good for another 100000 ks.

Let us know how the RDA combo performs. I need to change my rear rotors and was planning on RDA slotted and dimpled rotors to match the front and either RDA or ADB 4wd pads.Originally posted by Hazza View Post2019 GXL, Bullbar, UHF, Redarc Brake Controller, Tow Bar, Secondary Fuel FilterComment

Travelled about 60ks this morning. Took it very easy although I'm never hard on the brakes. They can take up to 1500 km to bed in properly per the instructions. So far they seem or at least the pedal feels soft and the braking is not any better than it was, if anything they feel slight less adequate. I put this down to me being very conscience of not working them outside of the recommendations and that they have not bedded - time will tell. Big change is they are very smooth and that annoying squeal I put up with all these years, from almost new has gone. A good clean and high temp grease would have fix that years ago but who's got time right.Originally posted by gxl_d4d View Post
I chose to stay with the same brand pads as the rotors for warranty and felt they would be best match by the manufacturer. I also did like the fact they have a 'greater' temp range so work well around town but perform when you’re descending Mount Everest with a 1.5 ton camper.
No affiliation but I find for the service and price I use Lees Spares on Kingston Road for all my parts. http://www.performanceparts.com.au/
Will update info and how they progressing after I do a few more km.
Until then - Cheers

Used the Karcher drain cleaner on the chassis rails today. Managed to go all the way from the front to the rear bar on the driver's side. On the passenger's side it stopped at the rear wheel.
Was pretty happy with the outcome as a lot of dirt came out at the rear.
Now to actually use it in the drainComment
