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.

The issue is Daz. The thread in the lower hsg is M12. The probe is 1/8 npt. To get the probe in far enough where it was. Won’t work with M12 thread. There’s just not enough meat in the adapter to make it work.
Post stat I think, is the best option. It’s actual temp right after the stat. So it’s pretty much real time water temps.
Time will tell anyway.

Edit : And are you coming to Licola? If not. Why?
Sure thing, you can have that old plug. I'll give it to you. I don't throw anything out
I'd love to come to Licola, the wife isn't so keen so I might try to sneak an overnight in by myself

Thanks. Im pretty sure I have my old plug, somewhere. I just need to sift through the boxes of crap I have. If I can't find it I'll let you know.
It would be great for you to come to Licola. We all have an absolute blast when we are there.

Came up good except for where I did my hole patch up work. It’s quite obvious, but it looks a heap better now. So I’m not too concerned. Yet.
I also had all the special washers, and one of the adjuster stops zinc plated. The other stop would not come out so it stayed in the bar.

hey mate, how much did it cost for the powder coating of the bullbar? did they snad blast it first? I have a rear Kaymar bar that i am thinking of getting done before selling it, trying to figure out if it will be worth it to make a little more on the sale.

$480 for the sand blasting and powdercoating. I wouldn't bother if your selling it.

Mudski's High Warn High Mount Rebuild into an ARB GU Bar
Not much getting done with the bar and winch. I have so much else to do as well.
I used the last of my oil filter stock today from when I sold the business.

Chucked in a new fuel filter while I was at it.
IMG_3161.jpg
Removed the rocker cover as it was leaking a tap. Then decided to sand it back and I will paint it. Yes I am a bit eccentric sometimes. Lol
IMG_3162.jpg
Then. There’s the interior...
I need to get a new head unit. And run wires through to the engine bay for the winch. Then put the dash back together.

I did Darren but the site I was using to upload the pics shut down, or something happened, can't remember to be honest, and all the pics wouldn't work. I got the shits with it so I just left it. If you can rename it, Mudski's GU Build thread, or something or something like that, and move it that would be great! Thanks Darren.
