Did some one say Doggy couldn't throw the leg anymore ? poor Doggy
Started my stainless water tank.
Gunna have 64 total capacity, so probably 60 usable.
Happy with that as we usually use 20l over 3 days. So should be right for a week with this..
Pump is being ordered tonight, and tap for the rear..
Treated the GU diff to some new bearings, seals and some DBA slotted rotors and bendix brake pads, all thats left now to do the swivel hubs, rebuild the calipers, brace it and swap it into the ute

Yeah I was thinking about grabbing one of those but didn't think the missus would have been too happy if I'd walked in the door with one of those instead of some food lolQuote:

what style switch would you use????
Don't see why it would intefere with reception seeing as it'll only be using one antenna at a time and they're set at 2 feet apart ...... wouldn't have thought it would be any differrent to some one running 2 radios, the switch I have is similar to this one http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/2-POSITIO...5357363&_uhb=1Quote:

Start of our preperation for trip away ..... Lots of wiring to sort out and tidy up, I think I need a lots more battery terminal connection points.
And lots of tighning NUTS and bolts, pipes and fit a few p clamps to secure lots pipes .......
Big trip in 11 weeks echuca to birdsville via tippaburra, innamincka via cordillio downs track to birdsville then a loop back to innamincka via walkers crossing track and a different track from innamincka home to echuca all with our 4x4 camper.
So lots of prep :)
Attachment 41956Attachment 41955Washed the troll and got rid of all the mud around the doors, I also finished cutting and fixing some rear window shades, she is cool now.

Could do will have to look that up and plan it in
Finally found a hoist that's free at 4pm this arvo,, so will be fitting 15mm coil spacers to the front top springs.
Drove the shitter down to the local PO to pick up my Hard Arse from Mal. Thats all I get to do with my Trol lately. Drive it on the black top.
I'm sad....
Ripped IC off, re-checked all vacum hoses for 20th time. Took EGR plate out. Doused the thing in petrol, and the match is lit ... Any day now!
Added a tag to bull bar for HF radio aerial

4. Fit AUTRON EGT/Bosst gauge in one of two spots on new Pillar Pod; and
5. Replacement Drive belt and tensioner.. (The old one crapped out as they put the new belt on.) :jawdrop: .
6. Don't count the bushes, consumables, etc... (although my wallet can feel the pain...)
It's only money, honey, but hopefully will keep us safe for our next trip out to Broken hill, ELDEE station at Easter.. Anyone else going??
(pics to follow if anyone interested.)
It's on. And painted.

"It's been a hard day night ...." Beatles
Today I changed:
Rear panhard rod bushes
Both upper and lower links bushes
Rear stabilizer bushes
Also I wanted to change stabilizer's links but I was already exhausted, so leave it for next month.
Front suspension planned for a next month.
Reco'd the fan clutch. I think I overfilled it though, because it stays locked up even when it's been running for a while.
I need to do mine ripper, how did you go about doing it?
