Just after a bit of information about servicing a 4WD winch. I pulled it all down, and it isn't in too bad nick except the needle bearings in one of the planetary gears, and slight marking on the shaft. I have sourced new bearings and will pick them up today.

Has anybody tow a caravan on the Great Alpine Road lately .

Help requested please for more trip planning. Having heard so much about Wuruma Dam I'd like to include it in our June trip to the Cape.

I am into several different craft/hobbies but most are unsuitable to take travelling due to amount and size of necessary equipment but I know I will go stir crazy if I have no little crafty thing to do while travelling. I have decided my little critters are the ideal thing as they don't take a lot of room...

gday gang. We have a thetford cassette toilet, over the past 2 years it has a build up of scale on the sides of the cassette. Is there a cheaper way of removing this muck without having to buy the thetford product, which I'm told from other forums doesn't work. My thinking is CLR or vinegar and let it sit f...

Hi I was wandering if any one else has had the problem of their portable solar panel lead breaking away from the Anderson plug. It happened to me when the panels were almost brand new. They manufacturer sent me out another lead as replacement. I was so careful with the second lead trying very hard not to t...

I just bought 5 pairs of Anderson plugs... then it dawned on me that I already had a drawer full of much better plugs in the workshop. Of course there are advantages of using Anderson plugs, like compatibility with other wanderers of the highways and byways, and that some RV aimed appliances etc may a...
