ASK ARB – product development

28th January, 2015

G’day ARB, I just received your Autumn 2010 edition of ARB 4x4 Action. What a great read! I was particularly interested in the new products for the Prado 150. Being a Prado 120 owner, it’s always nice to dream about upgrading one day! I was wondering, when it comes to developing ideas for new products, where do these ideas come from? I imagine you have a team ...

ASK ARB – HID lighting vs helogen lighting

28th January, 2015

Dear ARB, I am looking to add some IPF driving lights to my new Mitsubishi Triton 4WD which I am setting up for touring.

I am aware of the environmental impact the improper use of chains can have. However, my thinking lies along the lines of having a set of chains in the vehicle as an emergency recovery aid. I ...

ASK ARB – sand recovery

10th January, 2014

Dear ARB, I have only just joined 4x4 Action and thank you for a most informative mag. On a trip down the Hay River Road, I got well and truly stuck in VERY soft sand at the top of a sand dune, unable to reverse or go forward. Having a Warn 9000lb winch and suitable tree some 50m away, my friend and ...
