Sweet!
What they said, it looks sharp. And love the plates! Well done :BigThumb:
Hey Ian - if you don't mind me asking, what did it cost for those plates? I have never really bothered with custom plates, but I have been wondering if it is worthwhile getting some good ol' black and white plates for my vehicle when it's back on the road. Current rego number would be fine - just in black and white.
Cheers,
John
Thanks mate, pretty happy with the outcome. I think it was more arse than class that I got the combo I wanted. The plates were $445 + a credit card fee, a bit expensive but something I wanted to do.
Thanks Ian. I'm not sure if I'll stretch my project to black and white plates, but it's good to have that info.

Just loaded Ralph up for our annual Series Skinfull Weekend at Rosevale pub. 50km from where we start but it takes about 6 hours of driving to get there followed by a great country pub dinner and copious amounts of refreshments and entertainment! Should be a great weekend. Looking forward to engaging low range for the first time!!
Woo hoo!
Cheers Ian
Good stuff Ian. Sounds brilliant.
Looking forward to hearing about Ralph's latest adventure.

Had a great time cruising through the back blocks of Beaudesert, Amberley, Rosewood and thru to Rosevale. Had to lock the front hubs in a few time on all the dirt tracks after drifting around a few corners at speed:burnrubber:. Set up camp with a tarp and a swag, utilising the tailgate as a kitchen table. Had a terrific dinner at the pub, followed by a few more bottles of red at the table and around the camp fire. Cruised home Sunday morning (Ralph went like a freight train) to the wife who wanted to go for a cruise on the bikes, so it was back out again and we ended up near where from whence I had just returned (or 20 km away):p. Had a nice lunch at a cafe, were about to get back on the bikes to come home when a storm as big as I have seen for quite a while hit with a vengeance. Waited out the storm with a couple of coffee's and cruised home following the storm but not actually riding in it which was a stroke of luck. All in all, a very enjoyable weekend away and I was very impressed how Ralph went.
Morning All
I noticed the brake fluid was down a bit last week after the series skinfull trip. Topped it up, cleaned under, over and inside after all the dust from the trip but found the fluid level was down again last night. Looks like the rear drivers wheel cylinder is leaking. Just ordered a set of rears from the brake guy next door to work. Will have to replace them this week and I want to check the rear diff oil but there is no fill plug on it, only a drain plug, will have to go through the breather hose port to refill it after draining it I suppose. We have another club trip on the 10th of next month cruising the Condamine River Road, camping at Queen Mary Falls which should be a bit of fun. Told the wife she will have to take her Wellington's on that one as there are 14 river crossings. Attached a clip of the drive we will do (not my video, but I will try and do one)

The rear diff should have a brass fill/level plug on the RH side of the nose of the diff - have you looked there?Quote:
