I think it does include the twin compressor, which is not cheap.

No one is being forced to buy. I just posted it for FYI. It is not for me, I would rather spend my money elsewhere.

It looks like there may also be some custom wire harness in those website pictures. Which would probably need to go back to a busbar or battery terminal. Twin compressors are fused with two 40 amp fuses.

1. Allin Towbar, send an email, it is a custom order. Look here. I own one, very impressive engineering! Capacity 3.5 metric tonnes, 350kg max towball weight;
2. Allin also make a variable height towing mount, a custom order;
3. Hayman Reese, look here;
4. A Gen-Y Hitch can also work, look here; and
5. XHQ Towing Kits converting the IG’s 13 pin Euro plug to an Australian style flat 7/12 pin plug. Look at packages 2 and 3. Package 3 is not offered for the 2 seater Utility Wagon (it seems my 2 seater was the only one every installed). XHQ use their own wiring loom in their kit. XHQ have verbally confirmed to me the 12 pin flat plug has all the 12 pins wired, not just the standard 7 (confirmed by phone on 9 Oct 2024).

Too complicated for my tastes.

I cannot even find it on the AU website, not surprising since it is so badly updated. It gets updated whenever, whenever ARB AU feel like it.

Hey @TheDocAUS I learnt a new trick the other day..................when inflating your tyres back to the desired PSI, if you have the motor running and the screen on the tyre pressure/temp screen, once the tyre is at the correct pressure the grenadier goes "boing" then remove the hose and onto the next one, same thing happens, the car actually tells you when you have reached the desired pressure.

That’s how I pump up my tyres, but in my case I don’t get the bong so I have to watch the screen. Maybe it’s related to a software update?

Cheers Steve

How do you set the desired pressure on the screen? Maybe something for the @Rok_Dr Guide in due course.

MrMike said:

the desired pressure is the one set on the screen for cold tyre pressure

TheDocAUS said:

I will need to look at that. I am just using the tyre pressure gauge.
