FAQ
What areas do you service?

Why do 4WDs need regular differential servicing?
Differentials play a crucial role in managing power delivery to a vehicle’s wheels, especially in 4WDs that operate in challenging terrain. Over time, the oil inside the diff breaks down or becomes contaminated, reducing its ability to lubricate gears and bearings. This can lead to excessive wear, overheating or failure. Water ingress from river crossings can also compromise the oil. Regular servicing — typically every 20,000 to 40,000 kilometres depending on use — involves draining and replacing the fluid, inspecting seals and checking for signs of damage. Routine differential maintenance helps ensure quiet operation, smoother engagement and long-term drivetrain reliability under load.
What’s the difference between a stage 1 and stage 2 build?
Stage 1 builds generally focus on bolt-on upgrades that improve performance without altering major engine components. This might include ECU tuning, exhaust systems, air intakes and intercoolers. These upgrades provide noticeable improvements in drivability and efficiency while keeping the engine internally stock. Stage 2 builds go a step further and often involve more advanced modifications such as upgraded injectors, turbochargers, clutches, or fuel pumps. Supporting mods like cooling and drivetrain enhancements are also common at this level. Stage 2 setups typically require dyno tuning and may affect long-term reliability if not installed and maintained with proper care.
What’s the advantage of a canopy setup for touring?
A canopy setup transforms a 4WD’s tray into a secure, weatherproof storage area ideal for touring. It protects camping gear, tools, fridges and recovery equipment from the elements and keeps everything organised. With custom drawer systems, fridge slides and power systems, canopies offer quick access and long-term storage solutions. They also allow for dual battery setups, solar panels and lighting. This makes the vehicle more self-sufficient on extended trips. Built from steel or aluminium, canopies add durability but also weight, so suspension may need upgrading. For serious tourers, a well-planned canopy setup is key to comfort, convenience and capability.
