    Not knowing anything about these, but I see it has a 56VDC output and the unit is called Router power supply, I'm guessing the router is built into the receiver (the square thing) and it broadcasts it's SSID from that.

    If so, that's a nice compact setup.

    Ticking a few things off.

    Wheel rotation.

    After replacing tie rods and front end bushes a little while back a wheel alignment was due. Finally got around to doing it today.

    Was wanting to carry a second spare on the roof. While rotating the wheels I wanted to see how I would go. No chance. Someone suggested to carry just the tyre and get it fitted in town, I think I'll go that way.

    I carried a single spare when I did the Canning. But I did use a bluetooth tyre monitor and took plugs.

    The tyre monitors worked flawlessly.

    If you're running one of the many 10 ply tyres that are around now, they're pretty bloody tough regardless of brand.

    Wish I was going, but If I was heading out that far, I definitely would have a couple of inner tubes as well. I have seen a tyre with a three inch gash in the side wall that was fixed with an inner tube and a patch of inner tube rubber. The gash was tied together with those large cable ties.
    My advice is: not to follow my advice.

    I once gashed and wrote off a Mickey Thompson MTZ coming out of the Ouyen BP servo. Was flat by the time I crossed the road. Couldn’t find what caused it either. On my way to an Anne Beadell/Connie Sue trip. So if it can happen in town (annoying but not dangerous) imagine what a stray mallee root out bush can do to a trip. I always took 2 spares on those trips. There are other guys with you to help get it up and down from the roof, team effort @jay see .

    Also drilled some holes and mounted to Jerry can holder with bolts instead of rivets, can’t believe they were riveted on with 3 small head rivets ��
