New bull bar fitted after removing the old one, wired fog lights, re-fitted driving lights.
Also stripped winch and serviced, full clean, new bearings and grease ready for my next trip

Have you thought about putting a pressurizing hose to the winch to keep water out
Most use an old air horn pump I think ,Hoping to do mine soon

Yer I had heard of it being done before but haven't thought of doing it too mine

Interesting observation over the last couple of weeks after swapping bullbars. .
My EGT has dropped around 30-40° from where it usually sits cruising? Looks like there is more air flowing into the scoop on the bonnet with the new bullbars. . All the better for me.
I'm now at 8 psi and 310° EGT at 100km/h whereas before I was around 350° same scenario?

well after months of having the drawer system built i thought i better get off my behind and finish my fridge slide.
The slides i bought 'Lock out' but they don't lock in that way i could use my own latch for the front.
Works great and matches in with the drawer system as well. Having a new Waeco CFX model, they have nut-serts in the bottom of the fridge so a few holes though the base panel and fridge is bolted down.
Now just have too get out for a weekend and test the whole lot out haha

I would think 80% of scoops are not working properly because they have fitted a bullbar,
I wonder if they take into mind the scoop on the GU's when designing it, because
nissan didnt design it with the view of a bull bar being fitted
I'm tinkering with the idea of fitting a piece of flat perspex at the top of the bull bar
to force air onto the bonnet.

Thats a huge difference IMO just from changing a bull bar

Looks awesome mate! Something I need to sort out in mine. After I do the lift pump mod and change over the inlet manifold. Lol.
I thought to have two drawers to one side so the fridge is lower. Saves buying a drop down slide.

Nice Rig mate!!
