    Smile Jeep JK flare extensions

    I use the bush ranger stick on flare you can get it from most 4x4 suppliers - i notice arb now sell it to

    heres why i say its good on a JK;
    1. I needed extra coverage to be legal and it does that.
    2. When I first did it there was little else available for a jk.
    3. Some of the awesome new products available for the JK arnt LoL - ive got mates who have dropped big bux on "Awesome new products" and have broken them on the first occasion they slide into a high sidded rut
    4. I have squashed crunched slid on rubbed and bangged my flares so many times I cant count - there still there
    5. my heap looks mild not wild with the factory flares and rubber ext and i like that because it doesnt scream out to the boyz in blue look how high im lifted!
    6. its cheap!
    7. Im waiting to see what will be the best aftermarket alternative and then Ill buy that - and im still waiting
    cheers Hunty

    Smile Still playing with GPS's and Ipad

    I use VMS - GPS mapping

    its not free but it is worth every cent.

    You can purchase extremely detailed maps for specific areas - I have bought all the maps for the areas I usually wheel in.

    I love the large HD display and tactile / intuitive response from the touch screen.

    I have also added a ton of free apps to make driving fun from pitch & tilt meters to apps that can find the nearest Petrol station or Pizza joint.

    I surf the net on it and get my email - I guarantee you will enjoy it

    Lastly - I am still trialing it in various places in my JK and think that my next install will be above the centre mirror
    cheers Hunty

    Beautiful stuff Hunty!!! Just one (silly) question, when boldly setting out down your driveway, are you often tempted to command "Engage"?

    LOL Dave

    Smile Can off the Beach

    I am working down in vic for a couple of months and went for a drive along the beautiful south coast - I was looking for the colourful beach huts and came across a stuck Falcon sitting on the beach.........

    I have given my winch a work out over the years inc pulling a loaded semi, I had to use 3 snatch blocks and scure my Jeeps towbar to a tree to stop me winching myself to the truck, I am aware just how much pulling power is required to drag a 4dr pootrol on its belly up a steep hill and how much power it takes to unstuck a cruiser in the mud....

    I was originally going to drive onto the beach let my tyres down and snatch him off, it seemed like the smart way to do it, then I thought hmmmm I dont really want to be bothered to air up after so I decided to winch him.

    I hooked it up at 90degrees to the falcon and fully expected it to be difficult to pull a falcon sideways in the sand.

    To my surprise when I pressed the winch in button the falcon just came almost effortlessly sideways through the sand until it could straighten up.

    I was surprised because my winch was running so fast it was almost free spool speed - so I have now learnt that pulling heavy 4x4's in the mud is significantly more difficult than pulling a falcon sideways off the beach!
    Cheers Hunty
