@ Winnie what style hook are you going to use on the hi-mount?

TJM sell a latch-loc hook that is designed for rope, {smoother edges}
about $35

I've got this one as recommended to me by Roadrunner

Will that be big enough to fit both ends of a say tree trunk protector?
Thats one of the main reasons guys use the latch-loc hooks

[Winnie]

Yes it is heaps bigger than a standard hook.

6 new boots - Hankook Dynapro MT RT03's 285/75/16.

How tall will that make it? 33/35?? Looks good.

[Rossco]

Yeah cool, there's 2 links there from Roadrunner, a 3.25t and a 5.3t rated hook.

Ah Rodger, didn't see that. Think it might be rated 3.something T. . . Have to check. . .

How do you attach those ones. Do a splice or use some sort of thingy in between?

Anthony showed me how to splice them in, how they do it on their race trucks. I've got the exact same rope as you and he said I can either do the splice or pass that little loop in the hole of the hook, then pass the whole length of rope back through the loop and that is just as good.
You can get a little hammerlock thing to go in between too but he said it's probably better to splice it on.

Had a custom airfoil plate made for the cross country intercooler, will post some pics tomorrow as its a bit dark now. I had an alloy plate cut and two foils twisted to drop air onto the intercooler to see if it will be of benefit on egr temps, you will see what I mean when I throw up the pics.

Checked tyre pressures.
