Hey guys,

It's a late 05, model - post upgrade.

Yes I've been um-ing and ah-ing over what lift to choose. I'm torn between the Old Man Emu & the CRDSTU.

Hey guys,
Today I got a new set of tyres, some Mickey Thompson STZs in a 245/70R16 size. They rub a bit when the wheels are near full lock, like when I'm turning into a parking space.

I'm fairly sure it's the back sensor. My dad's had a look himself and he seems to think the brakes are actually rubbing up against the wire and that's what's causing it.

Hey guys,
I just recently got back from a trip where we went down a few dirt roads, nothing out of the ordinary, and on the way home the back wheels went a bit postal.

My engine has done over 100k but I've read certain places not to use the 15W-40. Mind you, most of those have been US sites and the US gets much colder than it does here. So if I've got about 150K on...

What engine oil to use in 2.8 CRD?

Hi guys,

I was going to buy some of the 0W-40 as was recommended in the manual, but I looked at the prices on Ebay and now I'm rethinking it. $80 for 5L, I don't think so!
I've been to a few...

Need opinions on the best shocks for a CRD?

Looking at putting some new shocks on my '05 KJ CRD. I don't really want a lift kit at this point in time as I don't have the money, so I'm just replacing the shock absorbers this time. I...
