    Plan is get snorkel and airbox done @ Millweld, booked in 2nd of Oct I think. Then just need to sort out piping from airbox to turbo and just hook up to existing safari intercooler and piping from there. Rotate the housing down and that side of things will hopefully work. Pump should be good in theory but then get it down to dieseltec once all done see how it comes up.

    Got the new (eBay second hand) bar on today. After my doubts it came up really good, have given it little touch ups but will get it powder coated once i fix up the rock sliders and get them since too. Thinking about lashing out and getting some scrub bars while it's in with millweld too this week ore next maybe. .

    Sits dead level on the car now so are very happy, the old one was rooted and is in pieces now. Chopped the middle bar, aerial mount and a couple of other brackets off to make one good one. Also put some mounts in for some spot lights which will just fit in with the high mount with a bit of a massage i think. . .

    If you put spotlights on where is the air going to get in for the radiator

    Good point, we'll see how it goes. Never really have a problem with it and kinda figure it will be similar to spotlights and relay box for a low mount which is what i was originally running without too many dramas. Spotties will be a litte more forward which might help maybe . .

    I reckon you will be fine Rossco. There is plenty of room around the lights - not like you are sheeting off the entire radiator! Having said that though, I took mine off and went the light bars to open up the radiator, but my engine choice is renowned for running hot in Patrols. Worst case you install the spotties and they have to come off.

    Got the sliders back on and some mudflaps. Had to readjust because of body lift but sliders were dodgy from new and I never found the time to go back and return or get them fixed so stocked to finally have them mounted up using all mounts now ! !

    Going to drop it off @ Millweld tomorrow and pick it up at the end of the week. Might throw some camping gear in the car and head up to the mountains for a day or two if all goes to plan and its ready. Anyone's welcome to come I'd they like. .
