This is the big one. I nosed in slowly to see what it was like. Quite deep and soft, so decided to wuss out. Didn't get any photos stuck in the middle, too busy running around with straps and things, but it was pretty funny. Good crack tho! - highmount saved the day

Awesome pics! I didn't realise you had tested it out... I could remember going through it a few months back and it wasn't an issue... Lucky it wasn't a TB still or I would have been skulled dragged out.

Managed to snap at the right time, came out pretty well. Should have got one of it stuck tho, never get enough photos.
Yeah I did have a little test and very nearly went for it. Did feel pretty soft tho!!
Go the diesel, they are bloody good.
What is it with you young blokes and muddy holes??? LOL I can't stand cleaning the crap out of my car any more and having the interior spread out on the front lawn....
Rossco, I thought you'd remember this feeling.....the hole at Tallarook as I remember.....

I had to test out how water tight my snorkel plumbing was! That video is now a familiar sight... The carpets still out the back drying out..

Ha ha, yes I do remember that bloody talarook bog hole, it has claimed a few. I think I am slowly getting wiser in my old age . . .

Yeah I did say slowly.
Think I have a bit of a love hate thing with bog holes. Good fun till it starts seeping in!!

Well, I think this concludes the conversion... Tonight I wired up the manual glow button, it was the last thing left to do. All functions now work.
I'm getting mixed emotions.. I'm happy I'm finally done but sad that the conversion journey has come to an end. What am I supposed to do in my free time now???

A big thankyou to everyone on here that's helped me along the way with the conversion, you're a fantastic bunch. Now I just have to get out and drive it!
