    FARRRK MAN ! Give a person a heart attack (coolant leak) ...... only "leak" he's ever had that we were aware of was the small amount of oil up near the turbo hose thingy you mentioned earlier - that puddle of coolant freeked me out!!

    Test those DVD's before you put them in as I said to you, they been in the cupboard for a couple of years !

    Go the winch !! LOL

    Well done mate sounds like it's coming along nicely .

    As for the leak. Mine used to come and go. It varied depending on temperature and when I drive it or park it for a bit of time. I remember once it went for about 2/*months without a single drop. And then it re appeared.

    Give u a heart attack.... I think I almost cried when I saw it.
    Ye I'll test it when I get around to work out the wire loom.
    Think winch next would be best as I have to pull bull bar off. With the uhf antenna attached to it makes for complications. (Had the same issue with my last gq lol.)
    Do u know if the wire that came with the winch is big enough? I recall having a lot bigger on my last one. But I think I went a bit overkill on my battery and winch wiring.

    Winch wiring - wouldn't have a clue dude / never even pulled it out the box so its all "as it came" was bought from the boys at ARB here in Ipswich - Give Alister (the manager) a call if you need anything as he knows me & Seamus well (I'm his favourite pain in the ass they used to do a Shyte load of work for me when I was at Jeep)

    ARB did the snorkel and lift ....

    It will be big enough, bigger is better obviously but they wouldn't supply it if it wasn't enough.

    Just doing some general preventative checks and touch ups when u decided to check his tow ball mount to see for any evidence of rust.... Concluded with a high possibility when I couldn't even get it out lol. Any1 have any ideas with this one?

    The one winning for me atm is find a nice big tree, snatch it up and drive away lol.(removing the ball that is)
    But somethings telling me that's probably not the best approach to this task lol.

    It will be fine to do that. First off just try to pull it out, don't actually snatch it. If it's really stuck give it a bit of a tug but if that doesn't work then try something else.
