We’re on the home stretch with Project D-Max. Perry and the team from Pez’s 4×4 Fitouts has done the heavy lifting for us, and the D-Max is nearly ready to hit the tracks. Before we set it free though, there…
You have to hand it to companies like Bushranger. When they release a new product, they are genuinely innovative. Not just a generic item with a new sticker, or edgy new name. Nope, I’m talking about a unique product, with…
It’s a big update for Project D-Max this week. Perry and the crew from Pez’s 4×4 Fitouts have been flat out, installing two absolutely key additions to our touring four-wheel drive. Items we really couldn’t live without. Not with the…
GVM (Gross Vehicle Mass) upgrade kits have been the talk of the town lately. With so much recent coverage about vehicles and caravans being overweight, it’s almost enough to make you want to stay home and do some gardening over…
What’s the story? The one addition that everyone wants to know about. More than anything else I’ve done to my FJ Cruiser. Which admittedly isn’t too much yet. Is this Front Runner Spare Tyre BBQ Grate. 99% of the time…

Last week, we ran through the installation of TerrainTamer’s suspension lift kit for our 4×4 D-Max. Including why we decided to fit parabolic leaf springs to the back of the D-Max. Well, now the suspension is sorted, we can start…
Affordable, reliable and easy to use. These are words I like to see when thinking about four-wheel drive accessories. And these 4×4 Tyre Deflators from Mean Mother tick all of those boxes. What’s the story? I’ve used screw-on-style tyre deflators…
There’s one thing I don’t like about this newer generation Isuzu D-Max. And that is the way it rides in factory trim. Especially the performance of the rear leaf springs. Unladen they have a jarring ride quality, noticeable on speed…
