Good morning daily

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

It's fairly short. It only has 2 1/2 windows in the middle. Mine has 4 between the axles.

What is the difference between an RH160 and a CH160 Bernie? I know the RH160 has air suspension, turbo intercooled engine and air over hydraulic brakes. The RB145 is a narrower body, no intercooler and vacuum assisted hydraulic brakes but the same 7 mtrs long for the three of them.

I like the re-siding to change the windows and all the bins :mrgreen: The first thing to empty (if it's still there) is the air con gear mid way along the RH side, weighs a ton and hopeless as far as energy economy, they ran a huge alternator just to power the thing :lol:

It sez rh160 on the manual that came with it 😁 also air bag suspension and air over hydraulic brakes, the roof top aircon is no longer there it has a after market aircon on the front dash.
I'm in Mirool for the rest of the day.

Good afternoon everyone, we are in the pub at Texas Qld, hopefully to get a decent feed. We will head across the border after lunch, and stay on the road less travelled for a while.
Safe travels everybody, happy hump day. :D

So, where did you get the CH160 from? I can find parts listings for them on the interweb but no specs to show if there is a difference between the RH and the CH ....... Once you get the swaybars and the shocks sorted out, the airbag suspension is great, otherwise they are a bit like trying to guide a jelly before it has properly set :lol:

Arvo/ evening, by now you may of seen the news and the truck hauling acid down the hill this morning that took 99% of the LAST arrestor bed to pull up, it was there when we passed this morning and there when we came back from town. The two trailers had been dragged out and on other trucks but the truck was still as deep as ever. The driver looked like the ones I've seen from Punjarby transport. No rain sleet or snow or fog at all and the speed signs were all working so another nutter on the roads. The copper said the truck was still gathering speed on the way down?
