Got a grommet for the vacuum break setup and started planning the 2nd battery possie.

Canopy frame is done...See pics...Also bought some Girly Terrains just for driving to and from Brisbane for the wife....
got out the 35x10.5 centerpedes and put them on the troll. (standard suspension) Ran it up the car ramps on opposite diagonal wheels and now wonder how to make them not scrub? the back seems fine just need to extend the bump stops but the front are going to grab the back of the front gaurd, which won't end nicely! Maybe massive bump stops? 3-4 inch lift in the pipe line but this won't help under flex.
Got busy today and dirty... :D

I had 2 broken grommets on my trailer vacuum brake setup so I decided to fix it.
Then as my wife got me a dual battery solenoid I decided to move the vacuum tank to fit the battery.
Well were the hell do I put it!!!!
The tank was 350mm long by 110mm diameter... Huge.. only one option

So with the tank cut down to about half it fitted nicely behind the alternator..

While messing around in there I decided to also pull my vac pump off to change the leaking seal.
So that off and seal has been noted. For those who want to know its a 14.8 I'd, 30mm od and 7mm thick.
So hopefully I can get that Monday or overnight Tuesday and then start assemble Wednesday ready for our first family camping trip to beachport for the long weekend.
I'm aiming to have the dual battery setup and running to but we'll see...

Heading home from windyAttachment 24719
Just tap it in just tappy tappy tappy
installed reverse camera and rear vision mirror monitor today . also fitted an evakool wireless fridge thermometer which is a copy of the two zone version , which were a great thing . no longer avaiable I'm told .
Changed the glow plugs, fan clutch and put on a new radiator cap
Decided to see if with the new lift I could drive over the boundary wall at work. It's about three foot high. Patrol 1 - wall 0.
Some things just have to be done!
