    cheers guys, forgot to mention the gear not quite visible as I put in the 2" OME kit, 33's and a 145L long ranger tank as well.

    It purred like a kitten through the Mt lennard track and some of the other hill climbs, got nicknamed the stealth patrol by the crew as they were used to their rumbling diesel tractors

    Had to include the photo with the guard dog watching the troll lololol

    Still got to get a rear worklight set up, more 12v plugs inside and some LED light strips for the awning as well

    still trying to figure exactly as the original tank was approx 500 kms from 90L give or take, it has the 145L in there now but I have to fill up a jerry as a back up when I work how low the empty mark is just in case. it has the the normal delay before the fuel gauge starts to register fuel use which is around 230 kms, at the halfway marker it has done approx 530kms so I am hoping around the 700kms range before having to top up. May have to look at a sub tank to retro fit as the lat of the petrol subs for this model came out in 2006 which will give me close to 200L on board not including jerry cans.

    Picked up a bush ranger wheelie bin (ripstop / pvc) for the spare yesterday. nice sturdy bag so I'm happy with that. got it when i took the Patrol back to ARB in Welshpool for the 500km suspension follow up to ensure ride heights and that they bedded properly. All I can say is the staff down there are excellent, big thunbs up to them. If any of the WA crew want the details of the staff I dealt with, pm me.

    Going to start looking for some baintech plugs for the inside of the rig now.

    Where do I grab a sticker from?
