Swapped out the front door hinges today and away went tha clunk and double door thump. Also plugged in the electonics for the air/out temps on the intercooler and it worked first up, also powered up...
Bought a set of sliders, with the single bulge at the rear door and the universal mount kit, will plate top and bottom with what I have left over from the tray, should come up well, bit of welding to...
Had a good day on the tools with a bit more done on the draw system.
Made centring blocks so side to side is less force on the hold down bolts.
Made wings to fill into the tub edges.

Just did diff oils today, surprisingly no water inside which was great to see.
Time definitely ticking to get our rigs going!

Going a bit different in this tub build. Instead of the run of the mill switches I decided to step it up a bit.
Sorta works out the same as its 8 switches, a fuse block, cabling, circuit breaker all...
I think I worked out the YouTubey thing

Sorry to do that to you, but after years in the maintenance game, I've seen and heard of tools, parts and rags being left after repairs.
I am wondering around the oil pump and it being worn on the basis when the pressure increases the engine comes good? I did have a subaru that did the same thing - sorry similar - and it was valve...
[QUOTE=jay see;844254]Well it keeps on going.
The wife's outlander needs a new radiator, the worst part is that the hoses are going to be more than the radiator itself. No one has all three in...
I’ve also changed the radiator cap from a .8 bar cap to a 1.1 bar cap.
Reason behind this is these TD’s like to run a wee bit warm. Having a higher pressure in the cooling system raises ;) the...
Take the rocker cover off and start the engine up. If oil squirts everywhere you have a dodgy switch. Or put an aftermarket oil pressure gauge in and go with that.

Installed a water tank today for the GQ, I can’t think of any other way to secure it, thoughts on this way with straps?
Looks ugly but???
The tanks tapered so it sits snug against angled cargo...
We bought 2 single zempire mattresses a few years ago and a joining strap for them, it ties them together and stops them seperating during the night.
Perfect to just take one on boys trips or both...
For sure but the zempires are bloody comfy too

Will pencil that one in for a watch soon mate. Great era in Australia before everyone turned hysterical about everything.
Not sure if I'm happy or not.

Good shit mate. Proper poly and gravity fed outlets are a winner as long as it fits your hump, sits flat on the floor and doesn’t stress the tank over corrugating etc.
