    Isuzu LSD Binding/Grinding Noise

    Hi Steve, yeh mine seems to get worse the warmer it gets. I tried the Isuzu additive which didn't make a 'diff'erence. Dealer told me if I replace the oil with gear oil suitable for LSDs the additive is not required. Also my front diff is an aftermarket ATW LSD. Can't tell which end the...

    Isuzu LSD Binding/Grinding Noise

    My 2016 NPS makes a horrible clunking when turning too. The dealer I bought the truck from new told me it was normal, sold some additive to me which I put in and it hasn't changed. So with a total of 6500 kms on the clock I changed oil in front and back diffs to Penrite 85W-140 gear oil for...

    Hi Karl of Oz, Interesting about the roof surround. I'll have to keep an eye on that. As for solar panels, I think I'm going to get a portable blanket one to start with. I figure if I've got the truck parked under a tree to get some shade, a panel on the roof's not really the best place for it...

    Some pictures of my pop top sleeve fitted. Installation was a lot easier than I imagined. Opted for the insulated vinyl and flyscreens and clears in the windows. Very happy with the outcome.

    I've done a lot of hunting around for the pop top sleeve. I'm not ready for sleeve just yet but have made initial contact with http://cuttingedgecanvas.com.au/pop-tops/. They 'seam' (sorry couldn't help it) easy to deal with. I'll just send my dimensions etc and they'll make them up and send...

    Keen to see a picture of your sleeve and lighting. I had conduits put in my roof panel to suit location of lights. Was tricky, as you say, to run cable. All done now and tested. Between the top of the wall and the roof I thought I'd run my cables in a length of flex which will be contained...

    NPS travel truck build

    I only used the Raptor paint on exterior panels for some scratch resistance. I haven't painted under the cab.
