Thats a great looking rig Tiny! Thats the colour the "Boss" and I have decided we like for when we can finally upgrade. Good to see what they look like with a few accessories (yours and others) too.

Looks heaps different to when I last saw it at City View, with all that kit we need to something difficult for you to attack.

See ya on the tracks, Richo.

Just ordered a Runva 11XP winch. They've got a pretty good special at the moment. $649 with rope, wireless and cable controllers and definitely better warranty conditions than most of the cheap ones.

I got the last one from Overland 4wd at maroochydore but wolf4x4 are doing them online with free delivery. I wanted a storefront I could take it back to just in case though. Hopefully I'll get it in time to have a crack at fitting it this weekend!

Getting very excited for the Simpson trip now.

Sounds like pretty good value Tiny.

I'd be interested to get some feedback from you once you've tested it out.

Definitely. Probably wont get a chance to give it a real world work out till the Simpson trip in 5 weeks (and even then maybe not) but as soon as it gets a go, I'll post about it. I'll try and take some pics of the install too.

Love the wheels, I reckon it suits it great. Amazing how they're the same size, such a transformation Had you heard of runva winches before or just scooped up the special?

Nope, I hadn't looked into them at all. I nearly had myself talked into getting a tigerz11 one because they were getting so cheap. Then I read the fine print of their warranty conditions about regular servicing and decided to start looking for reviews to see if I was going to need a warranty claim. That's when I came across the runva ones, usually in the context of 'you'd be better off buying a runva for that price'. Then I started looking into the runva ones and the warranty conditions were heaps better and no one could find a complaint (unusual enough in itself in the current age of whingeing about everything). That's when I saw the deal and decided to grab it. Hopefully I'll be another satisfied customer with no complaints.

I think you made the right decision - would not touch anything tigerz11.. ever!! Keep us posted!

I've got one of their awnings which seems to be going fine so far but something going under extreme stresses in a recovery scenario I'm a bit wary of. A lot of people are happy with their Tigerz gear but there does seem to be slightly more complaints about them than usual from what I've read.
