Finally got the hydraulic winch connected with new hoses - how prices have gone UP in 15 yrs!, Then, smoke tested the drive belt to the auxiliary pump and re-learnt the lesson about belt pulley alignment, overflowed the hydraulic reservoir, just like the first time, but its super quiet. Need to boost the line speed though as a bit slow in low speed.
Fixed the leaks on the new rear airbags.
Finally installed titan rear drawers after buying them 2 months ago.
Holes didn't line up great. And workmanship is not super. Going to have to get a grinder to it to get 1 last mounting screw in. Side wings don't seem to fit in too well. But for $380 it's pretty good. Shouldn't complain too much.

150 K / 6 month service , engine oil & filter , fuel & air filter , diff oils , grease . Still going strong and a pleasure to drive.
The price of excellence is dicipline , the cost of mediocrity is dissapointment .
Yeah I found the exact same with mine. But I paid $700 for them, around 12 months ago. Even at 7hunge I wasn't worried too much. The rhs wing cover doesnt even fit on mine, its about 10mm to long. I also made up three braces for it, Which mount and hold the front of the drawers down as I found out mounting a drop slide on top the entire back section would lift and buckle. Not anymore....

As for me. I got the two rear barn door windows tinted to 5%. Just to keep the sun off the fridge a little better.
Long time no speak mate! How are you?
Yeh the side wings are well off. Got them in with a lot of force but not great.
Mine was more issue with left side than right tho.
Good idea bout the tinting will have to get darker tint I reckon.

I have the two side windows in the rear covered with black plastic corroboard from Officeworks. I think Bunnings sell it too. Was about $8 a sheet. I simply removed the window trim, cut the board to the shape of the window, then put the trim back on, which hold the board in place.

Accidentally put in 10ltrs of Premuim Unleaded. Called my diesel mechanic immediately and he said 10ltrs is not enough to hurt the engine. Just put in a diesel injector cleaner and fill it again when used 1/4 tank. Was very hesitant for sure but he's the specialist and so took the risk. All went well, no problems at all.
That's what I done to my Patrol today. Not good but will be more careful in the future.
