Put some Black Widow seat covers in, replaced the stock recovery points, re-mounted the awning and then took it for a drive. Got to a landslide with two great dirty boulders in the middle and with a four foot high log about half a km up the track so turned around and came home. Didn't want to add replacing the diffs to today's list!

Picked it up yesterday after getting a few things done: front and rear crank seal, uni joint, new belts. Need to do rocker cover gasket, does anyone know a good place to buy one online? Been quoted $75 for one that includes the grommets for the bolts.
