Traction control is NO substitute for a Locker. Ha!

Only just saw your post tombie, no I currently don't have cdl (I do have the Ashcroft kit ready to install but need a hand with it so thought I will just give it to the mechanic to do when his back from holidays) I'm not 100% sure what happened but there was some little loose rocks/pebbles at the top which I think contributed to the prob, but from the drivers seat it just felt like my front wheels where locked and sliding on the loose pebbles/rocks and felt like my front wheels were doing nothing, I may be wrong but then I also didn't let my tyres down at all and it had been raining all day so they may have been turning and just getting no traction, I will be driving past there today so I will try to get some pics for yous, it may help me to get an idea of what I've done wrong

Did you purchase the mount direct from Woods or is there a reseller here?

Good job, looks like I took the wrong line then, real easy for the D3. Always love watching a LR in action

Best line I think was really hugging the side walls, at one point Only the sliders
Kept the door separated from the walls. Plenty of he Nissans and Toyotas in our group required several attempts as well.

Hi Wayne,

There is a reseller here
C.R. Laurence Co., Inc.
but quoted something like 3 times the US price then refused to get one in for me anyway.

I sent an email to Woods direct & explained the actions of their Australian distributor. They eventually agreed to sell to me direct & it was here in 3 days (with a bag of jelly beans).

Thanks for that Scott
I think I will contact Woods direct,as I want a 6" version.That should be big enough to hold an iPad,as I don't want to have to use a seat mount stalk type mount.

Arkon in the US have some good holders for ipads.

Go thru US as agents in Aus do not carry same products.

Bought a good holder for ipad that mounts on head rest bars - ggod price & delivery.

They do have suction holders as well.

Cheers
