    Thanks people for all the comments.

    Update with pics to follow.........suspension upgrade - done. 4 more work lights on the roof - almost done - should be finished today. Heat exchanger, under bonnet shower - booked in for next Tuesday. Promise the pics of the shower set up won't include me showering in my birthday suit. Some of you are still getting over the pic of the car washing incident. Remember....words not pictures, words not pictures. lol.

    Going away on a Western Patrol Club organized event this weekend, so should have some good night time pics of the almost full monty.

    A lot happier. Gotta be careful of fat tyres in the wet. Cheesies seem to cut though the puddles, but fats seem to push me around.

    Going off road for the first time with the suspension upgrade and fat tyres, so will let you know next week.

    Is always the case with wider tyres. More surface area so less pressure on the road. As you have noticed the thin tyres are good at cutting through compared to the wider tyres sitting on top or physically having to displace much more water.
