What did you do to your navara today?

[75 GRC]

Sadly sold the Coromal, after 30k of memories it was just to much weight 1.7t to drag into the places we like. Gone back to quick erections "tent" and setting up the old girl for remote camps.

What a shame, When it was set up it was a great for its functionality..

Yeah I know what you mean Geoff, but that style of van is more work than most think. The last trip with all the annex's and everything set up took 2.5 hours to pack up. I also found out the 200ltrs of water and packed gear made it illegal. 1.7 tonne is crazy for a 15ft van, 1.49 tonne was the original max load.

Yes couldn't agree more that is a lot of weight to tow.But with 159HP in your old girls surely that would help??

Sorry mate, I dunno from your poor English if your happy or not with your lift.
Please feel free to take the time to explain in future a little more with a known language, especially if you mean it in English. No disrespect intended mate.
Thanks.

Installed my ironman snorkel on the weekend. I think I was more nervous when I took a jigsaw to the front bumper for the bullbar but still a nervous experience. Happy with how it turned out

Well, not today, but yesterday. Chopped the muffler out of my xforce exhaust. Sounds a lot better now... not too loud, but has great turbo whistle and a nice throaty rumble to it. Should have done before I fitted it originally. Not bad for a 4 cylinder anyway hahaha.

Oh and a couple of weeks ago, a 52 inch light bar, which I had to cut down to about 46 inches so it would fit on the roof lol, apparently I can't read a tape measure lmao. Puts out a damn lot of light. Could almost do away with the 4 hids on the front lol. Also chopped my long and skinny roof basket up and made it square.

Probably the most important thing was the new tyres. Got 65000km out of the stock ones which was a pretty good effort I reckon. Gone up to 265/75s now, only very slight rubbing so far on the inside of the mudflap. Haven't got around to trimming them yet, but probably will when I fit my new rear springs next week.

Keep a close eye on the dump pipe around the cat, mine lasted 11 months and it had a crack in it.

No worries. I've been keeping an eye on it, although my cat may have escaped....

Finished up a couple of things inside the canopy, going in for paint in the next 2-3 weeks. Will post a pic when all done

I actually did something to mine today (which means I should update my garage too).

5 new Yokohama Geolanders fitted ... first impressions are they aren't as aggressive as the BFGs but they feel more solid on the road and are much quieter on the highway.
