Well the last two days I have changed my fuel and air filters, tightened my bullbar bolts and installed my new awning and rear wheel bag. All set for a lovely weekend at Lake Eildon.
Nice spot Elidon and great fishing.. I have family that have been there before the dam was built.
Had a 1999 GU ST Patrol 4.5L Auto on Dual Fuel ...now have a 2003 GU ST ZD30TD Auto.
Well, wasn't today, but last few days, I fitted a new compact UHF radio, made a custom chassis to fit it into the storage slot hole under the stereo head unit and a bracket to fit the mic without drilling any new holes, came up pretty tidy. I fixed my GQ dash clock for free, and fitted a Narva headlight upgrade kit to replace the original sealed beams. Plus I bought some recovery gear and ordered a battery tray from ARB to install a dual battery kit.
Next will be a wiring loom upgrade for the headlights so I can put in brighter bulbs. I've also got my eye on a roof rack.
Been looking at winches but they're pretty pricey... Anyone got any budget minded options for a while till I can save up some cash? Ebay winches seem cheap, although I can't help wonder if that's for a reason... Or a hand winch for emergencies, any suggestions?

I bought a Tigerz11 12000lb grande for $599 and it hasn't let me down. Its identical to the supercheap ridge rider 12000lb winch that's priced at around $900
