How are the BFG's for road noise? Noticeable or like a road tyre?
It would have been good to get them up in the NT at that price as well.

I haven't really noticed to be honest - with the window down you might hear them a bit, but really no worse than the dunlops IMO.
How much for them in the NT.

What the *$#&, Would have been cheaper to by them in brissy and ship them up there, on a set of 5 even if you spent $1000 on freight you'd still be infront.Big Dog

Picked up the rack on Friday - Didn't get a chance to install it over the weekend but it looks ok, nothing a bit of touch up paint won't fix. All the rubber gaskets were there but missing two of the backing plates for the centre mounts, looks like they were never installed by the previous owner. Also e-go have managed to missplace the wind deflector - "if it's not here, I don't know where it is" so hopefully they manage to find it.Big Dog

Pulled the old steel basket and Rhino bars off tonight. They've been on there for 2yrs, BigDog looks funny without it.
The basket, rhino bars and toyota factory rails will be in the for sale section soon. Need some spending money for the 4x4 show.Big Dog

Got the factory rails off tonight, didn't break any clips, and the ARB mounts on - what a PITA those bolts are to tighten, can't get the allen key onto it square cause the rail angles in a bit. Anyway they're on now, just put the rack on and it'll be all good.Big Dog

Yeh some business's go beyond making a living and just charge what they like. They then blame freight and the US dollar when all of these things have continued to get better over the year, example we have a good U.S dollar buy, we have freight option of both trains and road trains and better air freight options with more carriers coming to the N.T.[FONT="Comic Sans MS"][SIZE="2"]09 D4D Prado - Toyota issue White

Breath Easy...
So the Snorkle went on a while ago, here are some pics of the install.
Picked up the Sarfari Snorkle from ARB Nundah. Got it all unpacked ready to go.
A quick photo before I got started, nice new panel after the little incident on Fraser, so let’s cut a hole in it.
Current state of the air filter, well and truly due for a change.
And the state of the air box.Big Dog
