Anyways start with lines then flip a coin maybe [emoji848][emoji6]. . .

Just curious Rossco have they given you a timeframe for the parts?? When I spoke to them 2 weeks ago about the 4.8 kit, the bloke giggled and said the waiting list grows by the second.

If it is only to support the part for alignment and if reachable from bellow, maybe you can use a bottle jack as the third hand.

No its the get the plate inside the cross member and lift it upwards to align with the holes in the chassis rail then hold the bracket in place while you screw the bolt in, all done under fatigue and aching fingers by that stage - its a right bugger of a job, but the only solution I can tell.

Was that new or used? Didn't give an exact time frame but sounded like some were on the way not too far off . . That's all new stuff think used calipers at least go out the door pretty quick. .

Going to do brake upgrade too soon on GUte as brakes are petty dam terrible, ordered braided lines will start with that but will go TB48 callipers rotors and master cylinder down the track I think. . At least will be able to tell difference instead of doing everything at once which I did with GQ. .

Hydralic booster looks like a very good upgrade too and have only heard good things from those who have done it. .

Yep I use Genuine pads. I find them great.

My TB48 upgrade is awesome but I find now its too good and in the wet its a bit sketchy. ABS would be handy now.

I have a set of front discs and pads, secondhand, we’re put on the patrol before I bought it and I changed all of them after a year to slotted and new pads so if you need or anyone some $100 plus post

Gave it half a 2,500km round trip collection Piggyback [emoji23]

Bloody hell MB you'd be better off buying a RAM pickup for work towing duties.

Or you could swap TB <> TD motors with me would be the best outcome, you’ll love the 4.5L Young Blokes burnouts this thing can do when firing properly [emoji123][emoji123][emoji23]
