Thanks bsteveo its only gonna get better
Well bit of maintenance finally got the new alternator fitted so I can drive it now without worrying if the battery is flat.
Then bought some steps and had them fitted, big thanks to Mike from XLR8 Fabrications over here in Perth.

Then re-connected my dual battery solenoid so both batteries are being charged.

Can't forget the sticker looks so much better than the snorkel manufacturer one that I peeled off when I got the snorkel

So fitted my new ICOM UHF today, bit of messing about trying to find the right power adapters for the old power plug so I didn't end up having to cut the nice new cable ICOM supplied. Jaycar have them for both the old and new in case anyone else has the same problem
Old Uniden style

ICOM and I'm guessing most new UHF have this style of power plug as I saw a no name brand in jaycar with the same sort

New wheels on when for the Dynamic Steel Black Round in a -13 offset

Only issue is they seem to stick out further on one side than the other, thought I read a post on here where there's something you need to do if you have lifted your suspension, if anyone knows what it is or stumbles across the post let me know.

Nope I've never owned a Triton and its quite a common nickname.
Silly question time, is this my front panhard and is it adjustable? I want to assume so because of the threaded bits on both ends but assumption are the mother of all f!@#ups

If so I take it I need to wind the thread in or out the direction the tyre needs to go? Got major death wobbles over 80 km/hr now and didn't have them prior.

the panhard is the other bar shown in the second photo, the adjustable bar you have there is the draglink, that adjusts your toe in/toe out.
As far as wheel wobble, if you didn't have it prior to the new wheels, then I presume they haven't managed to balance them correctly
