    My 28" Light bar and 30mm rear coil spacers arrived this week! Mounted and got the lightbar going tonight, still a bit of tidying up to do but it is a good thing! As for the coil spacers hopefully I'll be slotting them in within a week or two to get it sitting nice and level! If anyone has some 33x12.5 tyres they're about to replace or looking to get rid of I'll be interested! As long as they've got enough tread for more traction than my shitty bald at's I'll be happy!

    Tried out some 35's for size yesterday, looked 300% tougher! I reckon I'll stick to buying some 33's so I dont have to lift it any higher and avoid guard rub without chopping

    Finally found a good deal on some tyres! Picked up these 305/70R16 BF Goodrich KM2's with around 70% tread on 16x10 Mickey thompson alloys, very happy!

    Sorted out the set up for the rear of the Patrol for storage/camping, I'm certainly not a builder but fairly happy with my effort!

    Got the snorkel sorted this weekend! Had a mate tig me up some 3" stainless and I'm pretty happy with it! A fair bit of modification to the terribly sealed intake was necessary but it turned out great and I'm pretty confident it won't be taking in any water! 10612876_10152653384540189_338473474289601198_n.jpg

    I haven't bumped into him just yet mate! Haven't even got the rig out onto the tracks yet, a few little things and it's ready for Tassie's west coast!
