The roadtrain route is Moama-Deniliquin-Hay-Buronga-Broken Hill-Peterborough. Then if you are NHVAS accredited it's Jamestown-Gladstone and onto...
Actually that's all changed. I don't know how long you've been out of Australia for, but it's now 100 km/h for roadtrains in the Northern...
Once we get to Moama like in another reply you can roadtrain 2 trailers all the way to Pt Hedland or Dampier where I went. With 3 trailers you...
Partly to do with length laws, and yeah, they tow better. Max legal length is 53.5 meters or just over 175', and that's the way they get around...
We hook up in Moama in NSW just over the border from Echuca. It's 400 kms from Sale. I paid a guy to run down with the 2nd trailer and load it...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] We usually charge around $2 - $3 per kilometre per trailer depending on where you are going...
I should have mentioned you have to take the switch out, but yeah, easy job.
No it's not the same! The ignition, you have to use a pin or extremely small screwdriver to push in the C clip on the ignition barrel, and slide...
Absolutely not!! They are red hot on that sort of thing in the mines. It's an optical illusion.

Nah
I let mine sit on thick strips of rubber. Probably could have chained across the front to stop it sliding forward in a crash, but weights that...

The previous batch were made in Mexico! But if I'm paying US prices I want them made in USA. Where are you Donald? The door handle was $213 ($153...
I think the recommended max pressure is about 40 psi, I'd have to look it up. Any higher and you get much better braking but you know you're going...
Update: Obviously I changed the tumbler in the driver's door as well, but the door handle was worn, so I bought a new one. It's also easier to...
Not rubber, but I use a balancing powder called Equal. Works great, but don't get it wet.
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Too easy. Just pry off the stainless cover, turn lock fully anti-clockwise (LH door). Pull...
There's a pin hole on the ignition lock where you push in a small screwdriver to release the tumbler, pretty sure there isn't one on the door lock.
This is the part that comes in the kit, and that's what I want to install. You can do it yourself without pulling anything apart because I've done...
