Thanks for that John. Good to hear of problems with the Alpine system. Keep the complaints coming folks
Agreed good snout support is vital for longevity of the drive
We are looking at how the V8 boys support the snout on the big blowers, and the sort of maintenance they get, and I am talking to a firm here in OZ that uses MP90 on Isuzu 3.5's in aircraft. Can't just pull over if you have a failure.....
The vehicles we are doing here are taking us to very remote locations on so very rough roads so reliability is paramount - last year one guy made an 1100 mile round trip to civilisation & back when a wheel bearing on a vehicle failed on the Canning Stock RouteThe driver of the broken car got to camp in Nowhere, AUS for a week - possible to get a VERY long way from anything at all in this place!
