So I went out today, first time since the lift, hubs and intercooler have been fitted.
Happy with the results...

Very nice mate, where about's is this?
Near Warburton, surprisingly it wasn't too slippery after all the rain. Some good tracks!
The car seemed to be a lot stronger low in the rev range with the intercooler & fan fitted, I reckon the fan helps plenty when out in the bush - climbing a hill after idling for a while must cause plenty of heatsoak so thats definitely a worthwhile improvement!
I'd be more confident now to climb a hill in low 2nd that I would have previously done in low 1st.
looks good...
neat install. even looks the goods. can you tell me what the ebay store name was or the seller is.
For the catch can?
Not sure if this link will work:

I've since fitted a hose with tap to drain it.
It's been a while since an update, seeing as I'm stuck at home after having my wisdom teeth out I thought I'd get onto it.
I've since:
- Completed dual battery install
- Fitted EGT and boost gauges

- I fitted LED elements to the interior lights which are good for low power consumption but not as good light quality.

So I've added another LED light to the front overhead console

Also, here's the rear draws:

I've run power to a fuse box in the rear trim with first job being some power sockets.

I didn't really like the idea of the intercooler fan coming on as soon as ignition is switched on (as the fan plus glow plugs etc on a cold morning can't be good for a battery). So I ran a switch inside the cabin:

A deal came up on a winch which was too good to miss...
It's a chinese one (which I was not keen on the idea) but I got the 12,000lb winch with rope for approx the normal price of the rope on its own...

Does anyone have the ARB winch Bar fitted with a winch with rope?
I'm not sure if the steel section above the fair lead could cut into the rope???
Anyone's thoughts???
I've also just realised that there are provisions for mounting the solenoid box behind the bullbar, I might look at doing that. Then there's room for a nice LED light bar in the middle of the bullbar!
