I finally updated from my old black max air compressor (12 years old!) to something with a bit more oomph! Also took the chance to bring my tyre deflation and inflation into this millennia. And...

The old rusted sliding window frames have been bugging me as has the tired interior door cards. Gone solid glass and new 2mm thick plastic cards. Looking less like a shit box both inside and out....

Funny you say that. I did a similar thing following my old man out the door as a young one. As he backed up the bumper contacted my head and my arm flung out just enough that he saw it in his side...

So I can't claim this as an original idea. I found some USA company that makes a much neater/prettier version so I adapted it, simplified it and beefed it up. Anyways, I don't run a roof rack and...

Slapped a shiny new GME tilting mount on to the rig. Guess who now fits in his shed without having to remove the CB antenna. This guy thats who. Also took this chance to run conduit over my entire...

Checked and cleaned the earths for the battery. Also checked the starter connections as well. I went ahead and replaced the ignition switch just as one more thing to rule out.

So in the end I...

Last weekend was the hybrid superflex arms to fix the castor angles in the front. This weekend was all about getting the rear pinion angle back to within spec with some superior adj uppers.

I've been saving up for a long time for this. Replaced original radius arms w/castor correcting bushes with these superior hybrid superflex radius arms.

Good point regarding smaller items. I tend to keep things such a tools in the drawer. This was primarily for large bulky items.

thanks

Thanks. They are just big enough that I am able to reach through them which is handy for moving bits around or searching for something from the back seats.

All primed and painted with two coats of kill rust. I waited the recommended 16 hours before applying another coat.

So after talking to some mates about how I had planned to mount it and looking at what a PIA it was going to be to screw into my drawer system I have elected to try to use existing bolt holes and my...

All glued together. Still need to make mounting brackets and give it a lick of paint. i think it will be plenty rigid. it should set higher once mounted. Left plenty of gap around the edges to...

So I've been wanting to build a barrier for a while. Now that the wife is eating for two its high time i got serious. I already have a drawer storage unit installed and directly in front of that I...

You lucky buggar! I wish I could be that greedy with the patrols. My wife would probably kill me. Welcome to the forum!

Welcome aboard. Cant wait to see photos of the high top.

Welcome and bring on all the Patrol Porn! Got any shots to upload to this thread?

We tow a Tambo and I couldn't fault it. Its a pretty basic set-up so there isn't much to go wrong with it. I did take spare trailer bearings and ubolts just in case.

Hi all,

Been lurking for a while. Good looking community you've got here. Below is my 88 4.2 diesel gq which has done around 480,000 + ks (odometer broke a few years go). She is a bit rough...
