Gave the underbody a squirt with fish oil. Smells lovely now. Also rubbed the battery tray back and sprayed some rust converter.i was expecting holes, but it isn't that bad.

Hello from Under Down Under!
Towed a 7 x 5 trailer around the bush & cut 9 loads of firewood. Thought some of the slopes might've bit slippery in places (clay) but the new tyres took it in their stride. Pulling away on a steep hill with a full load of firewood in tow is a pleasure with the Patrol, it makes such easy work of it.
