Ordered an iCom Pro 400 UHF and RFI CD5000 antenna, and looking to install one of those Outback Interiors Overhead consoles tomorrow to fit up the UHF out of the way. Finally got sick of the handheld... Also managed to get my hands on a Black Widow full length roof rack that I'll install when I get home from work next month.
Now to sort out the bloody voltage leak!!! My frigging radio antenna will go up and down by itself when I open a bloody door or bang on the side of the truck at the moment and my main battery will go flat inside a week on not being used. Not happy.
Between Patrols ATM. Had a beaut GU with 6.5 Chev TD. Next is a GU ute with a 4.5 litre Cummins conversion and a camper on the back.
Removed the bushes from my radius arms today. Cleaned them all up. New rubber set ready to go in
Make sure to use rubber grease..

Yea I'm toying the idea of a complete tear down.. It's a tough call. I know I'll find more issues, and it'll cost $$$ , but I think I'd wanna know about them and fix em..
