Moving along with some basic up to date mods since I've got it got it:
Replaced the interior lights with some fancy LEDs from supercheap, shine a fair bit brighter than the standard bulbs
Also had a chance to replace my ProComp ES9000 shocks that we're worn pretty bad in the rear, the front surprisingly not to bad at all but stuck in there like all hell.. Had the dreaded shock spinning situation when trying to lock it into place to ratchet off the bottom nut on both left and right hand sides. Ended up having to grind off the right hand shock just near the bottom of the chamber and was as simple as unbolting the top as per usual and banging the remaining bolt out at the bottom with a hammer.
The left side a whole different story, PITA. Top bolt wouldn't budge either so ended up having to grind the piston halfway up, then remove the brace up the top and cut off piston again and pull the whole thing out that way.. what should have been a 30minute job turned into a couple hours and a heap of swearing at the blastard things.
Old rear shocks and the bottom bush from the left rear: (didnt bother with front shock pictures, got binned instantly out of spite)
And the new 4" dobinson I ordered from Superior to go in:
Just replacing the shocks has made great improvements, rides alot more smoother and the body roll around corners has easily more than halved what it was prior. Overall am happy with this mod
Cheers,
Cameron
