As a good Australian 2Dor have done his bit with is own stimulus package![]()
Today I drove a 2 door Rangie with a newly fitted ARB airlocker in the rear. The owner INSISTED on fitting this overpriced secondhand item to his beaten up old 77 . I tried and I tried to convince him not to fork out all that cash on a rear difflock, but no, nobody listens to me...
Anyway, after fitting it I went on the mandatory test drive. How uninspiring. NOT ONCE could I flex it up enough to warrant actually engaging this useless accessory. I tried everything, and even on the brink of tipping the vehicle on its side, I didn't need to engage it.
I told him when he picked it up that he'd wasted his precious $$$ on a completely unnecessary addition to his vehicle.
Some people will never listen to advice...
....Eh, Mark????

Are you referring to the Green two door Rangie?
He is a member here and is very happy with your service down there.
Ever wished you could take back that last post?
I sure have.
Hey big guy
It was VERY tongue in cheek mate!!
Mark and I had a laugh about how capable it is WITHOUT the ARB; I reckoned he wasted the $50 he paid for it and the $150 it cost to fit it, he could've bought a few beers etc for our next barby with that $$$!
That RR went up an embankment that I use to test vehicles suspension mods by far the easiest of all I have ever taken up there, and the ARB was never engaged.He got a bargain alright!
Its all good

Good to hear.
Not all of us are so intune with the going ons in Tassie.
I only ever heard good things about your work and didn't think you did one thing and say another.
So relax and may-be I now wish I could take that post back.
No worries BG, I actually re read it and I realise I hadn't put enough Smiley or tongue poking emoticons in there, so yes it did look a bit unkind
But the punchline was supposed to be at the bottom for Mark (2_door) 's benefit.
He understands my weird sense of humour
(just to reiterate, the basis of the post was that he paid $50 for a perfect condition 10 spline ARB, it cost $150 for us to fit it and plumb it in, and in the end I STILL reckon it doesn't need a locker, the suspension rates / droopp travel etc are just perfect!I just felt like stirring him up a bit!
