    D40 Solid Axle Conversion build up

    Hey mate, I'm hanging for this one... Although I've been told there are new laws coming at the end of this month about vehicle mods. Might not be able to get it if they change the law and can't engineer. I'm hoping the Govt will get some sence between now and then. Although I fear that could be...

    Navara D40 550

    Hi guys, Has anyone got a 550 Navara yet? Any problems? I saw two at my dealership that came in with engine noise issues, just wondering if anyone experienced the same. Any feedback on the 550 would be nice. Thanks

    Hey Dave, I'm getting the guys from Overkill to sign up so they can post the pictures themselves and answer any technical questions. That would be the easiest way I think.

    exhaust for YD25

    Don't know... I am not a metallurgist. Just passing on what I was told by Castle Hill Exhaust who are fairly well known in Sydney for their good work. As far as I am concerned, they are the experts when it comes to exhausts and different properties of metals used to make them. Lots of workshops...

    exhaust for YD25

    Hey mate, Ifyou are planning to take it offroad, get mild steel. I was told stainless can crack if it's very hot and you dunk it crossing water. There is much debate over 2-1/2 or 3 inch. Ive got a 3 inch (exhaust) and it's going great. If you're doing it, get it chipped too... huge difference...

    D40 Solid Axle Conversion build up

    hey Joshy, Sure is Overkill. Just to be clear, its not my car. I'll be keeping an eye on it and if it works out.... we'll see. I might consider going next. They have said that ABS will work. Something about the Patrol having ABS that apparently will be adapted to work on the Navara. Can't wait...

    Anyone tried XD Addict alloys..??

    Hey guys, Wheelboyz.com in QLD have those addicts and import them all the time. I have a black set on my Navara. The bolts are plastic and the silver does rub off. Other than that, haven't had any problems. They have enough backspacing to run larger tyres etc. Cant remember what I paid for...

    New lockers for D40 coming

    Ha ha ha, they are useless when it comes to that. Do good work but useless when it comes to posting pics etc. I've been telling them to update their website for a few years now. I saw it today, but there was nothing to note yet. Only rear and front fully disassembled. I'll post a few pics when...
