Let me tell you that generally if a Landcruiser can get through than I can get my Canter through. Take a look at my trip reports of our trips to the Top.
In sand, on steep climbs and deep creek crossings the Canter is at home. All it takes is a bit of reading and this would have been found...
How about some thing like this. 8Hp Honda driving a Landrover Capstan Winch which I use 100 metres of 27000lb (12000kg) rope. Saves taking the Tirfor. Wheels and handle are only for moving it around.

I'm running Alan's wheel and you can't say that I'm easy on them. If you don't believe me look up what I do with my Canter and yes it is loaded to the max (and then some) at times and often it may be sitting on the bottom side wheel with more than it's share of weight in offroad situations. As...
Free wheeling hubs are not necessary to be able to run on the road / highway as the centre acts like a normal diff. It only locks (if you want to call it that) when it is powered as in 4WD and one wheel starts to spin. For us we drive in 2WD hubs unlocked on really good road / highway. Go to 4WD...
My opinion is the "Torsen front diff centre" is of more use to general running around because it is there all the time and works really well when you are running on loose gravel and in mud - probably snow. The locker is more suited to hard core use as in climbing over rocks as such and when it...
I've been watching along quietly but yes We (my wife and myself) wish everyone a bright and prosperous New Year.
We do Bulburan National Park and free camp at a little private creek overnight then do Krombit Tops National Park the next day. Let us know if we can help in any way. May even be...
Okay I'll start.
If the battery is the original one as in new in 2009 then it is probably at it end and should be replaced with a new one as it didn't seem to charge enough with the runs that you have done with it. It looks like it won't hold it's charge any more.
Do you have a check engine...
I would have commented earlier but had hoped that someone with a later Canter answered.
As Kerry has said that on the earlier Canters the exhaust brake is operated by a Vacuum Cylinder mounted to the exhaust brake unit (I'm hopeing the same on later Canters) but there is an electrical solenoid...
