Bugger. The stuff on top looks like brake fluid to my untrained eye. Does the fluid pong like gearbox oil or Dot 3?

Now that you mentioned it. Yeah, probably is brake fluid. Best I have another look. Not today I've put everything away. I will check the fluid level..

Absolutely naught! Was planning to do some stuff but I was to then stay at my dads place and help him out as he’s just got home from having a major back op. But to only spoil this yesterday stuffing my own back therefore rendering me useless. So some diazepam washed down with wine and whiskey and I’m good as gold! Well I can’t feel much atleast.

It is hinged at the bottom with piano hinge, so easy enough to get to the gear mounted on the cargo barrier back side.
I have installed a Perspex Cargo Barrier in the GUIV. I Like it alot. clear view out the back and better for the AC in the Summer too. Clear Perspex bolted directy to the Mitford frame (No Mesh). It was a Mitford Option actually. I scored it a few years ago and over Christmas cut it up to fit above the rear drawers for the Tassie trip It works a treat.
Its a Nissan! =====> Its a Keeper!! ....... Got a TD42 in it BONUS!!
....... I'm a lucky bugger! I've got 2 of em!

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

Agree Darren, good look, however my need was a little different. I have a lot of gear mounted on the barrier, so wanted to cover it up, plus I can't see out the rear of the vehicle anyway, so use the rear camera and mirror.

Propped the roofrack up one side at a time, replaced the rubber 'U' piece under the support rail in the roof gutter, cleaned the gutter out, doused it with rust converter for good measure - @Nhoward has me paranoid, then masked off a 10mm band of the roof behind the rail and applied two coats of charcoal rust paint, repainted the tradesman clamps black and bolted it all back down, another 'stitch in time' job I reckon.
