Far out mate, huge improvement!

i finally changed my leaking intercooler and went from 16.8l/100km to 12.6l/100km . yep should have done it 2 years ago..

What did it sound like?

I can't see any visible signs of a leak in mine but it does make a noise like a lot of air rushing around inside and empty vestibule when the boost rises.

Yesterday I had both tie rods and steering damper changed and wheels rotated and a wheel alignment done.

[mudnut]

Got all of the wheels balanced.
The thrumming noise above 80kph
has gone. It is amazing how you
get used to a noise as it
progressively gets worse.

While I was at the tyre joint,
I got to compare the treads
on a set of maxxi bighorn
mud terrains and BFG
mud terrains.
Apart from a few minor
differences, the overall
tread depths and patterns
seem to be of similar design.

And the headache begins... gonna swap over intake manifold, new glow plugs and injectors.

[mudski]

Ugh! First hiccup. Different stamped letter of the new to old injectors.

picked uip the patrol after the service and investigating the grinding sound from the front end, seems that when i had the last wheel alignment they screwed the bump stop bolts back in so when i put the 35's back on the lugs on the muddies were running on the suspension arm, screwed them back out and the noise is gone, bit of a shiny spot on the arms but no damage to the tyres
