    The music style whilst Karl is greasing. 🤣😂🤣 Concious choice or funny coincidence 🤣
    Hubby was giggling that it is like music from a 'certain style' of 70s movie.

      Hi Rachel,
      I had to re-listen to check, and yes it does sound like that 😉.

    Oh yes Karl, without maintenance, you often remain outside and just where you can not use it. I can only say that when we converted all our vehicles to balloon tires, many problems solved themselves. You just have to adjust the tire pressure according to the situation. It was the same up on the Bering Strait, in the Asian bush and in South America, where conditions were similar to yours. Best regards from Frankfurt, nice video and greet job.

      Hi Gerold,
      I always do all the maintenance/servicing that is required and do any other repairs that are needed. We are glad you enjoyed the video.
      Regards, karl & katty.

    You would think Karl that the manufacturer would drill a hole in the plates then tap a thread for a grease nipple?

    A few things if you'll indulge me :
    a) If you go through Sarina you need to stop at the Sarina Motel for either egg and bacon breakfast (all day) or pork chops for dinner. The owners have their own free range organic pigs.
    Really good bacon and pork. The Sarina motel is in the middle of town. You can park outside.
    b) I see you've found the easy way to mount a tyre without wrecking your back. I have a 3 foot Podger bar I use the same way you use the shovel. Why hurt yourself ? So much easier with a tool and some knowledge. Being on a station in SW Qld I also use the same technique for tractor and truck wheels.
    c) Your Isuzu has the same as my Deutz tractor. The wheels don't centre on the hub. A bit of a pain but you get used to it. It's not like a landcruiser.
    I hope you understand my 3 points. Cheers. :-)

      Good morning Ade,
      The Sarina bacon sounds great, but maybe next time, as we are now further north at Airlie Beach 👍

    Hi Carl just wondering will you be serving your transmission box yourself oil n filter in a vid ? Cheers

    • @nowhereboundtouring
      @nowhereboundtouring  Год назад +1

      Hi Joey,
      It is very easy to service, as you just need to change the oil ( no filter). I do it every service ( 15k km) even though Isuzu recommends every 60k km. It takes less than 5l of fluid. I may be able to film we I do our next service 👍

    Im really loving your videos because your showing the viewers such simple jobs they can do yourself. ❤
    No mechanic here, however have you thought about mounting some grease nipples at the top and bottom so you can flush out most of the old grease?

    • @nowhereboundtouring
      @nowhereboundtouring  Год назад

      I did think of that, but the metal is about 25 mm thick. It could be done though.

    thanks, all excellent info. I was wondering for a while how to grease them. 2x4 have nipples. Shovel lift, anti seize, thin 17 nut, will check this ahead, hope my nut fits.
