Merry Christmas all,
Installed four 6" speakers. Two in the barn doors two in the passenger doors and a pair of old stereo speakers under the front seats.
Also started to replace the old pre-filter and intake hoses with a zd30 air box and new intake hoses.

Gday all fitted my diff breathers yesterday and also carpeted my rear barn doors as I had speakers in them and have since removed them and didnt like the whole in the door. I also fitted a shelf/table for the door, I have also fitted a light just above the doors as well.

Coolant change and fitted a new condenser fan.

So far today over 400km

I've had so many hill climbs but none in 4Lo.
I've crossed 20 rivers and a 100 creeks by haven't got the wheels wet. Something has to change.

Installed led front park/indicator lights, now to slow the flash down!

Wired up & adjusted the new 9" HID spotties, now all legal running off the hi beam,

Not so much what I did TO my Patrol, but rather what I did WITH it.
Took SWMBO out into the bush on tracks close to our place this arvo. First time I've done a bit of mild 4wd'ing. Crossed a few creeks, negotiated a few ruts, climbed a few hills & generally thoroughly enjoyed exploring bush I haven't seen for several years since I last had a dirt bike. What made the difference was having rid myself of the creaking noise that the canopy had been making. Now I can drive around on uneven ground without worrying I am damaging something. Makes all the difference.
We did find one creek crossing which I chickened out on & decided to leave until some of you fine fellows make it up this way to show me how it's done. The water was probably only about 18" deep with a rocky bottom, but it was the rock shelf step up on the other side I wasn't sure about. Best attempted in the company of those who know what they are doing & with the ability to pull me out if need be! :)

Fitted a box onto left hand barn door for maps and so on.
