Lonely Planet travel guides
- RRP: From $21.99
Lonely Planet has released a range of reimagined travel guides, with the series of books covering all corners of Australia.
The suite of guides includes new titles, guides, pocket guides and planning maps, with Lonely Planet stating they offer travellers “a fresh and immersive journey reflecting on the needs of today’s travellers”. The guides feature insider secrets, diverse perspectives and insights from local experts. A new essay and storybook section has also been added, to provide rich insight into Australian history and culture.
“Experience Australia” is a first edition release, as part of the new Lonely Planet Experience Guide series; and the Pocket Sydney and Pocket Melbourne guides are among the first of the newly designed pocket guides to be published globally.
“We’ve conducted extensive research to understand what travellers seek in this new era of travel. These new editions are an evolutionary response to those insights, while keeping the essence of the much-loved Lonely Planet brand,” said Chris Zeiher, Global Marketing and Sales Director at Lonely Planet.

The Polyair bellows are constructed with two-ply fabric-reinforced rubber and feature ultra-high-strength, corrosion-proof Zytel Nylon end caps.

Exploring the great outdoors with friends and family is one of life’s great experiences but, no matter how much you like someone, there are times when a little privacy is needed.

The Ensuite Room is height adjustable and features integrated dual-colour LED lighting that is dimmable, wall hooks for your body sponge or loofah, and three potential shower head mounting options, all wrapped up in 200gsm silver-coated canvas.

![ad7d1010/bfgoodrich ko3 tyre 2 jpg](https://cdn.whichcar.com.au/assets/w_4096/ad7d1010/bfgoodrich-ko3-tyre-2.jpg)
BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO3 tyres
- RRP: POA
Off the back of the success of its well-renowned KO2, BFGoodrich has launched its All-Terrain T/A KO3 tyre which will be available to purchase from Monday September 2.
Said to outperform the K02 in regards to treadwear, traction and toughness, the KO3 incorporates the latest tyre tech including CoreGard Technology to give it superior sidewall toughness. Plus, an Advanced Deflection Design is said to help prevent objects from snagging and splitting the sidewall.
The KO3 has been engineered with a new tread pattern and all-terrain tread compoint, to make it more durable. Other features to optimise performance include full-depth 3D locking sipes; a serrated shoulder design; and mud-phobic bars. As a sum of its parts, BFG says the KO3 stops a total of 4.2 metres shorter than its predecessor.
“We’ve done a lot of racing and research in the 10 years since we launched the KO2 tyre, so a decade of data, feedback, technology and experience went into the development of the KO3 tyre,” said Harold Phillips, BFGoodrich Global General Manager. “We are our own competition, and we knew it was time to take the all-terrain tyre to another level. It will be exciting to see what consumers will do – at work and at play – with the KO3 tyre.”
BFG states that 38 tyres will be released in three phases, once the tyre launches on September 2. Following that, an additional 18 sizes will be added in 2025, with four more sizes arriving in 2026. In total, more than 60 sizes will be available over the next two years.
![134811e3/ironman 4x4 raid tub rack 1 jpg](https://cdn.whichcar.com.au/assets/w_4096/134811e3/ironman-4x4-raid-tub-rack-1.jpg)
Ironman 4x4 Raid tub rack
- RRP: $1950
- Designed for: Ranger
Designed to complement the all-new Raid canopy and Raid roof rack, the Raid tub rack by Ironman 4x4 will give a next-gen Ford Ranger extensive storage and customisation options.
The modular system is specific to the Ranger, allowing the vehicle’s tub to remain accessible when fitted. It measures 1575mm x 557mm x 550mm and weighs 54kg.
When combined with the just-launched Raid roof rack, the versatile set-up provides a full-length storage solution. Mounting a roof-top tent is simple once the rack is installed; plus it also features an integrated tub-strengthening kit. The Raid tub rack comes with a three-year warranty.
![2907124b/ironman 4x4 raid roof rack 2 jpg](https://cdn.whichcar.com.au/assets/w_4096/2907124b/ironman-4x4-raid-roof-rack-2.jpg)
Ironman 4x4 Raid roof rack
- RRP: $1295
- Designed for: Ranger and Triton
In combination with the release of the Raid canopy and Raid tub rack, Ironman 4x4 has also debuted its Raid roof rack. The aluminium roof rack – currently available for the current-gen Ford Ranger and Mitsubishi MV Triton – is slated to be available in showrooms in December.
Designed to follow the natural curves of the vehicles’ roofline, the Raid roof rack features a sleek, low-profile design; hidden cross-beam fasteners; folded aluminium blades for increased strength; and a built-in wind deflector to minimise noise.
The customisable modular system is also designed to be compatible with light bars and accessories. Plus, each cross beam can hold up to 25kg and features a standard T-slot on the top and incorporated drainage paths. The Raid roof rack comes with a three-year warranty.
Ironman 4x4 roller drawer system
- RRP: Starts from $995
Ironman 4x4 has unveiled a brand new set of roller drawers, at the 2024 Melbourne 4x4 Show held recently.
The drawer system has been designed and built from the ground up, utilising a combination of 6051-T5 and die-cast aluminium. This combo results in a weight of just 18kg for the single mid-height drawer – or just 23kg for the mid-height roll-top variation. In fact, Ironman 4x4 states that you can expect a 20 to 25 per cent weight saving compared to a like-for-like system. Great for strict payloads.
Despite these weight savings, the units remain strong – the full length, full-height drawers can hold up to 120kg per drawer; and, when fully extended, the roll-top flooring can handle 100kg (that’s easily a fully stocked fridge/freezer).
The drawers utilise a patented roller-bearing slide system, and all drawers feature a lock-out mechanism when extended for safety and convenience.
Appearances are important, and Ironman has opted for a neat-looking black mottled carpet on the top and sides; the fascia is made from automotive-grade ABS; and the handles are cast alloy. Other features of the drawers include two T-slot channels with rubber trim; internal strip lighting (AA battery-powered); and all drawers can be mixed and matched to create a system that works for you.
![f0301154/ironman 4x4 raid canopy 4 jpg](https://cdn.whichcar.com.au/assets/w_4096/f0301154/ironman-4x4-raid-canopy-4.jpg)
Ironman 4x4 Raid canopy
- RRP Trade Pack: $4500
- RRP Premium Pack: $4950
Ironman 4x4’s all-new Raid canopy is manufactured using precision-folded and braced 2mm 5058-grade aluminium and weighs just 65kg (give or take) but comes with a dynamic load limit of 180kg and a static load limit of 350kg. However, just to be certain, Ironman 4x4 loaded 2000kg on the roof during testing and the canopy held its shape.
Captive nutserts set into the roof of the canopy allow for the easy fitment of additional accessories; while cable management paths wind through the length of the canopy to keep things nice and tidy. A patented air-pressure vent at the front of the canopy reduces dust ingress, and integrated roof rails are standard.
Two Raid options are available: the Trade Pack (aluminium panels on all four sides); and the Premium Pack (front glass window and rear glass door, but panels and windows can be mixed and matched).
Ironman 4x4 says that fitment will take a two-person team about two hours, with difficulty rated as medium. It comes with a three-year warranty.
![40f40da0/ironman 4x4 im2 jpg](https://cdn.whichcar.com.au/assets/w_4096/40f40da0/ironman-4x4-im2.jpg)
Ironman 4x4 IM2.5 monotube shock absorber
- RRP IM2.5 shock absorbers: $350 per unit
- RRP IM2.5 pre-assembled coil-over struts: $630 per unit
Ironman 4x4 has introduced its all-new IM2.5 monotube shock absorber at the 2024 Melbourne 4x4 Show, held at the Melbourne Showgrounds.
The 2.5-inch extruded aluminium monotube – manufactured from 3-4mm 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminium and finished with a Type 2 hard-anodising – has been designed with comfort in mind, with Ironman that the IM2.5 is the “perfect suspension companion for 4x4 owners who really value all-day ride comfort and plush off-road performance”.
In addition to creating a smooth ride over all sorts of terrain, the monotube shock is designed to better handle harsher surface changes typically encountered when off-road.
This ride comfort is achieved in part thanks to the addition of a 57mm piston that has a 60-per-cent larger surface area than the Foam Cell Pro unit.
The IM2.5 monotube strut assemblies will be sold with black coils. Black coil springs will also be available for vehicles such as 300 Series (rear) and 70 Series (front and rear).
Specs include:
- Tube: 2.5-inch outer diameter
- 3-4mm wall thickness
- Extruded 6061 T6 aluminium
- Type 2 anodised
- Fuchs hydraulic oil
- High-pressure 200psi nitrogen
- Billet aluminium IFP
- High-pressure NOK seals
- Billet aluminium piston
- CNC-machined
- Oring sealed PTFE-Teflon band
- 57mm diameter piston
- 20mm hardened piston rod
The shocks are backed by an unlimited kilometre, four-year warranty.

These components come pre-fitted into the panel so it’s ready to be wired up.

- RRP: From $829

It features 36 CREE LEDs that deliver a claimed 960m of light from a 22-inch bar. The 5000 Kelvin temperature reduces glare on road signs while providing a soft, consistent light output.
Inspired by the flagship Type-X EVO Driving Lights, the EVO Light Bar shares similar characteristics and a unique silhouette. Optional side DRLs accentuate the iconic EVO family silhouette.
Customisation options include brushed stainless coloured fascia, a custom key that doubles as a bottle opener, the STEDI Black Out Cover, and optional STEDI Carbon Fiber Print Covers and amber lenses.
The EVO Light Bar’s innovative mounting bracket system offers a variety of mounting solutions, including tube-style mounting positions and traditional side brackets with various tube-style clamps available, along with rubber inserts to minimise vibration.

Cooper Rugged Trek tyre
- RRP: POA
Cooper reckons it has solved the age-old problem of choosing between an all-terrain tyre and a mud-terrain tyre by introducing the Rugged Trek, which it describes as a hybrid tyre.
While most all-terrain tyres are good on gravel and on- and off-road, they can lack traction in the mud; whereas mud tyres are great off-road but noisier on-road and with a higher wear rate. The Cooper Rugged Trek is said to offer the characteristics you look for in an aggressive mud-terrain tyre, while still giving you the mileage and performance of an all-terrain.
It features a four-rib design, open shoulder blocks and side-biters for off-road traction. The latest tread design provides a larger footprint, and unique internal siping improves wet-road performance. The tyre comes with a 14.7mm tread depth and a mileage guarantee of up to 80,000km.

The GottaGo is airtight and leak proof, doing away with the smell, and is a lot easier and safer to empty than a standard camping toilet. It is also a non-flush toilet, as a spray of vinegar is all it takes to keep the bowl clean. Both tanks feature a level indicator to prevent overflow.

Aeroklas Injecta canopy by TJM
- RRP: $3999
The Aeroklas Injecta canopy for the Ford Ranger is formed using Reaction Injection Moulding (RIM), which is claimed to provide a stronger, more flexible canopy than traditional single-shell ABS or fibreglass canopies. This process, which removes potential joins and weak areas from each canopy, infuses the Injecta with exceptional impact resistance and the ability to reshape it after an impact.
The Injecta’s combination of high-quality materials and superior manufacturing processes come together to form a strong and functional ute canopy. Boasting a roof-rack dynamic load rating of 120kg (350kg static), the Injecta allows you to carry more inside and out.
After the Injecta canopy’s tough shell is formed, it’s robotically painted to OEM standards with added UV protection to ensure its finish matches your vehicle, both in colour and durability. Other features include a drop-down front window and dual lift-up side windows that are key lockable, central locking at the rear door using the standard OEM fob and easy installation with the C-Clamp mounting system.
An LED interior light and an LED brake light are standard features and a canopy vent is available as an optional extra. TJM offers a four-year warranty on the canopy shell and paint and, a one-year warranty on componentry excluding glass.

A one-way breather allows air from inside the winch to escape when a hot winch gets cold.

Built tough with a durable textured black powder coat with DMW orange accents, kitchen/pantry is 800mm long, 610mm high and 410mm wide (which includes the rubber bumper) when closed. Dimensions when open with the cooker and table folded down are 1900mm (L), 610mm (H) and 1240mm (W).
