4wd systems

I bought a Roofrack off them in Adelaide. A good product. They were OK do deal with but then the apprentice botched the fitting of the RR. But I forgave him and got over it...lol

hi all
the aprentice should be watched by there superviser that is what aprintice are for they are not tradspeople

Have bought dual batt system, roof rack, cargo barrier and suspension from them. There was a fair wait on the rear springs ,however I was warned that the supplier ( industrial springs in Adel) was snowed under and there would be a wait. Happy with price and quality, particularly the cargo barrier, which was half the price of the equivalent milford and is a better fit than the milfords I have seen in GU's.

I have tried to buy a few items from them, but each time they have not delivered (ie: promised it would be ready but it wasn't) so ended up going somewhere more reliable. Price was great, but only if I was prepared to put up with the slack sales team. Quality seems OK too, judging from items that friends have bought (more patient people than me obviously!!)
Cheers

Ah! the apprentice botched the roof rack fitting eh. Well the "apprentice" botched the fitting of our long range tanks too, they were good about it, repaid the $700.oo it cost for the recovery from the Pedirka track and refitted it again. But By then we had missed out on our Simpson trip. Then, we had to be carted from the middle of the Gibb RR into Derby and spend 5 nights there waiting for parts. Seems they cold bent the fuel pick-up pipe into the main tank, to get it to fit, consequently after kms of corrugations, it broke off and fell into the tank. Fortunately, at the same time we also fitted a large magnet to the inside of the tank to pick up all the metal filings and rust flakes that were floating around inside. I could go on but I won't.

I would not buy a toothbrush from 4WDSystems.

Happy trails, Mike.

used to get hers and mine serviced by them?
had overheating problems in one of them....took it to radiator mob to have checked out....got called on the phone and was told radiator stuffed

Verdict.......corrosion taken place due incorrect procedure when changing coolants ...alloy was being eaten away and a powdery aluminium looking substance was blocking the core

several months later (and by this time toyota were servicing) the heater coil started leaking...took it toyota dealer to check out.....they isolated the coil and would check with toyota if they would assist (4 yrs old) didnt have the heart to tell them they , goanna mob, probabaly stuffed it.....anyhow, dealer fitted new coil, but i had to pay labour......when i went to pick it up they said they would keep quiet....i was lucky but new rad fitted was over $1k...

Thanks to everyone who responded..... I now have a better idea of what to do here....

Have a mate who owns a GQ ST ute. Bought suspension system to replace the TJM system he had. (Wanted more lift and wasn't impressed with the progressive springs) After two shocks fell apart, 1 off road in the flinders and the other driving around adelaide. Both times they were replaced but it is the hassle and everything else. This isn't a new vehicle so one would think any hassles with articulation would have been fixed by now. Looks like on two occasions wrong springs were fitted to the back end. They were Ok about it but left a sour taste.
