What did you do to your Patrol today!

Bugger. The stuff on top looks like brake fluid to my untrained eye. Does the fluid pong like gearbox oil or Dot 3?

[jay see]

Now that you mentioned it. Yeah, probably is brake fluid. Best I have another look. Not today I've put everything away. I will check the fluid level..

Absolutely naught! Was planning to do some stuff but I was to then stay at my dads place and help him out as he’s just got home from having a major back op. But to only spoil this yesterday stuffing my own back therefore rendering me useless. So some diazepam washed down with wine and whiskey and I’m good as gold! Well I can’t feel much atleast.

Did my wheel rotation this afternoon and notice that the disk was wet, not alot but enough to my attention. Undid the brake caliper to get a better look. Is this a leaking axel seal? It's the rear right hand side if that makes a difference

The last pic isn't wet, fair bit of guck tho.

Last pic looks like weeping axle seal and the pic before looks like brake fluid, if you havent given that wheel a decent whack lately maybe by coincidence 2 leaks at once?

Decided to cover up the front side of the cargo barrier and also make the head impact area a bit safer, I used 8mm ply and its mounted off the cargo barrier - turned out great.Attachment 80991
It is hinged at the bottom with piano hinge, so easy enough to get to the gear mounted on the cargo barrier back side.

I have installed a Perspex Cargo Barrier in the GUIV. I Like it alot. clear view out the back and better for the AC in the Summer too. Clear Perspex bolted directy to the Mitford frame (No Mesh). It was a Mitford Option actually. I scored it a few years ago and over Christmas cut it up to fit above the rear drawers for the Tassie trip It works a treat.

Agree Darren, good look, however my need was a little different. I have a lot of gear mounted on the barrier, so wanted to cover it up, plus I can't see out the rear of the vehicle anyway, so use the rear camera and mirror.

Yeah I've been pooping the good pills all week like their candy, just to get by. Somethings not right, with my back issues, it would be good after two days, is been 6 and its still sore.

Propped the roofrack up one side at a time, replaced the rubber 'U' piece under the support rail in the roof gutter, cleaned the gutter out, doused it with rust converter for good measure - @Nhoward has me paranoid, then masked off a 10mm band of the roof behind the rail and applied two coats of charcoal rust paint, repainted the tradesman clamps black and bolted it all back down, another 'stitch in time' job I reckon.
