What did you do to your Patrol today!

[Bidja]

X 2 on that Hodge mate. On 33s and easy calc @ 100ks (10+bit %). Rather not be watching for flashing lights behind.

Nice Hodgey! Can you do a quick DIY thread if you get time? Something I've long wanted/needed to do. As you say, 10% accuracy sucks!

Plassy! It's a 5 minute job. Not even...
You will need a 10mm socket and a pair of circlip pliers.

Sensor on transfer case, drivers side. Easily accesible. Can't miss it. Undo 10mm bolt holding the sensor assembly in. Slide sensor out.
Undo the circlip holding the cog on the end. Slide replacement cog on and re-fit circlip. Slide sensor assembly back in, re-do 10mm bolt.

Enjoy your speedo not bullshitting to you any more!

MORE than happy to take extra pics for you if you need mate! Let us know.

Here is a table if you need to work out what color you need, etc...

Thanks Hodgey, and @TuffTD42 for the link!

Due to my new business venture, I've dropped my comprehensive insurance down to Fire/Theft only. Only driven it for about a tank of fuel over the past 3-5 months and still have winter diesel in the tanks. Gotta give it a good run and change to summer diesel. Seriously thinking about de-registering it for 6 months each year, and smash the camping over Autumn/Winter each year so I can get the camp fires going. In many cases, fire restrictions start in mid September over in the west. Choices, choices ?????????

A trip to tas will clean the tank out grunt!

I started, gutting and ripping metres and metres of un-needed and overkill vacuum hoses and pipes.
Right now hoses and pipes go up the front of the motor, along passenger wheel arch over the top to the canister on passenger corner and then back again via the firewall to the brake and clutch boosters. The vacuum circuit does a grand tour of the engine bay before its final destination... Stupid.

Vacuum canister will end up drivers side, pretty close to the brake and clutch booster, fed directly from the pump.

A few things accomplished today.

Added oil to the viscous hub for better G35 fan lockup. Bit of a mission.
Enormous thanks to @mudski for the guide , help and the hub studs today mate.
Also added some foam surrounds to the radiator , which I didn't even know were meant to be there . Again thanks for @mudski for pointing this out and providing some spare foam.

Happy to report this definitely helped!! Today was it's first major test I like to think.
Drove to Geelong and back today, after quickly stopping over at Darren's. It was 34-36C all the way.
Aircon on, 100kmh most of the way car sat at 84-85C and did not go over 89C. And that was on one of the long haul hills, which I dropped to 4th anyway, as I lost power.
Prior to adding oil, last summer, it would sit and cruise around 88-91!

Went to start it. Wouldn't start. So locked it up again. I think it's upset with me for driving the Pajero for the last week
