Most van accessory shops should have the clips, they are in the camec catalogue, you can order on line or over phone, and they will post. Should be available in Adelaide for sure.. I bought mine fro ...

Wish I had the dollars, it wont last long. Put it on FB market place too...such good value for money.

Thanks hob, replaced my cable 18 mths ago, 2005 van, so was fully stretched.

Interesting how many are around, once your attention is drawn to them seen a BT50. An Isuzu, and a Ranger the past 4 days up here in N Qld. The BT50 was down at Carmila towing a tri axle custom made ...

Be interesting and possibly educational for many to find out, and see photos of the oldest BT still operational, on the road. Surely those records exist. Would need some phone calls to clear privacy ...

Double edit. Evil or Very Mad

I think that maverick battery comes with a charger youâ€™d have to check ebay. In all likelihood most people looking at these would have that gear already. Any AGM charger would do, just have to reme ...

Theres a Maverick brand 125ah LIpo on ebay for under 1K, $998, and a 200ah Lipo, same brand under 2k, $1769 so the lot under 2K, makes a better deal.
Nope thats for 2 x 100 ah Lipo.

Thank Bob, thats good figures for a V8 petrol towing a heavy van very impressive.

Bob, couple of points of interest, for me anyhow,
What is the weight of the van in travel trim, and the weight of the Y62 in travel trim.

Just makes the Ram2500 better value. Just saying, either way, you've still got to put your hand in your pocket at least once per year, for the shallower dip, the Dodge has it..I'll never have the pl ...

Just the difference in annual Rego would be the kicker, 6 cyl Vs V8

Thanks guys, just looked on ebay au. Looks like a trip offshore..

Just have to find a seller in Au now, nothing on Ebay. You would think they would be available somewhere. It looks a great tool.

Thank you for the info. I will order one today.

I have experienced the valve stem problem for a number of years now.

When I was getting one replaced in Kalgoorlie a couple of years back when th ...

Safety Dave, was 570 with a repeater which turns out I didn't need. Could have saved a 100 bucks.
