Hi Mike Yeah no worries mate,they are costly to post,but good on ya.I saw your pics and the bed rails do look good when fitted. Those LED lights are bright aren't they. Yeh do you find your tool box fitted at the tailgate makes the jumbuck swing out round corners?just wondering about the extra weight right at the back,Have you found the handling any different?? Regards neil

G'day all,
I'm really jealous of the guys dropping in new motors, designing & building accessories, working out rolling diameters of wheels & tyres, etc. I'm just glad I can manage an oil change without dramas. My Jumbi now has 75,000 k's up. The latest "modifications" were to change the standard interior light globe for a LED set-up (which is MUCH brighter), proudly advertise the Southern Cross on the tailgate and add a set of bed rail caps to the tub. Thanks for the tip on freight, Neil - thanks to my 2 sons they managed to get them to me at virtually no cost.
I've started a new album and posted these pics.
I hope EVERYONE can post a pic or two in the "Travelling Jumbucks" album. Please try . . .
