Nothing to the patrol apart from more fuel but did the wheel alignment on the camper trailer , both wheels scrubbing on the inside but independent suspension pretty easy to do .

swapped over a new viscous fan coupling - ugly ugly ugly, 3 hrs, 6 beers and bleeding knuckes. Don't remember the deal with the old patrol engine but the chev is very tight - need fingers like ET and uni-jointed 5 ways to get the bolts in and started. Hope this is the last time I have to do this. Attacking the shredded difflock hoses and wires tomorrow along with the mangled cruise control cable

Repaired the wiring and airlines from difflock compressor. Made an extended fan shroud to improve efficiency of the new fan blade. DSC01934.JPGDSC01935.JPG Before and after shots of fan shroud.

Earlier in the week when I changed over the fan coupling I 'lost' a 13mm open ender under the bonnet - it slipped out of my hand, went clank a couple of times and then could not find it. Anyway, still missing today and when i backed the truck out of the garage to reposition it, there was the worst vibration, then moved forward, nothing, reversed, vibration, did this a couple of time, thinking there was a porblem with the gearbox. Anyway got out and stuck my head under the vehicle and there was the spanner, sitting on a ledge partially exposed. Removed it and problem went away - if only every issue was as simple.

I replaced the deep cycle battery, with a SSB 100Ah Dry Cell AGM Deep Cycle.

Hi BR, couple of questions for you if I may;
1) why did you go for this 'style' of deep cycle, as opposed to the wet cell plus. Are they faster recovery or better life under deep depth of discharge?
2) I am confusd with the description - dry cell AGM - what exactly is the format - I thought agm was a gel type of filling, and dry cell, closer to a carbon battery with limited moisture? I don't know enough about battery chemistry to tell the difference.
