What did you do to your Patrol today!

[PeeBee]

Fitted the hydraulic hoses for the winches thru the air fed cooler, another fiddly tight as hell job done and dusted. Struggling with the effects of going onto blood thinners and every knock and scrap sees bleeding like a stuck pig, unsure what the neighbours and passers-by are thinking as it doesn't stop me, but end up looking a bit lick Mel Gibson after a bit in braveheart!

Nearly done this simple setup. Will be a touring setup and a full time 50ltr weaco fridge.

110ah agm in the fron of the draws.
Kickass 25A dcdc charger with solar input.
Victron shunt.
EBay 8 switch panel to run it all.
I've added bus bars for future expansion but probably overkill lol.
3 cables running to the right are for a remote panel which will house 4 usb ports, 2 cig sockets, solar input anderson plug and a power anderson plug to run a remote power board for in tent charging, or a 240v charger input if needed..
The 8 gang switch panel is a solid bit of kit.
The board is resin filled, 60A capacity.
And Bluetooth app connectivity which works well..

Switch panel added.
At this stage button 7 and 8 controll each cig socket / usb panel each.
Button 1 is the fridge.
Button 2 is the top anderson.

Button anderson is solar input to kickass charger..

The Bluetooth app works a treat!!
For $200 I'm over the moon with it!!

Well after leaving home at 10pm Tuesday night to get up to SW QLD to get my daughter away from this toxic and abusive environment she’s called home and work for the past six weeks, at 5am, 240k south of Cobar fifth gear let’s go. I limp into Cobar, not one workshop would help. All I want was to drop the oil, and refill with fresh oil. So I did it on the side of the road. Four hours later I’m off again.
Slow driving as 90 was absolute max I can go in 4th.
Get to Bourke to head further north, roads are shut due to flooding. I was told of a back road which will get me to Thargominda, long, dirt road but not flooded. I finally pull in at 9pm, driving pretty much non stop since 10pm the night before.
Get a room, sleep for 12 hours, get up, get in the car, start to move and the sounds from under the Patrol were worrying. I find the only mechanic in town, and this guy was kind enough to drop the oil again and inspect it.
To cut the story down a little, it’s getting a good second hand box in it tomorrow as I still have to go east to Charleville, drop the daughter off, hook up the horse float from there, and take it with another horse down to Goodiwindi, drop both off there and then head home.
So a lotta k’s I still need to cover.
