the wire shelf in the canopy, did you just screw it into the canopy with a bracket? that's not a bad idea!

 

[04SilverSTR]

yeah it is screwed in to frame of the window

Another little addition this arvo, it only thin sheet but it works.

So the past few weeks ive been getting bits ready to intercool my ute, I didnt want to cut holes in the bonnet nor do i have space for a front mount.

So going back to my subaru days i picked up a Water to air intercooler (WAIC) off a early RS Turbo Liberty and went about modding it to suit. The original pipe work on the cooler didnt come anywhere near mating up so it was all cut off and rerouted to suit the nav. I then set about mounting the front cooler core and the 12v pump. Overall it turned of well, as for performance, it seems alot pokyer around town and pulls quite well on the hiway. My main reasoning to doing it is to catch the turbo bits if it ever lets go!!





Had to move the Power steering cooler

Hi there Bryan,


The sheet metalwork Is it there to make it easier to crawl up into the tub so you're not destroying your knees on the uneven surface??

Or is it there to help stop dust getting in.

Because I'm a pretty short guy and I destroy my knees all the time getting in and out.

Just curious on what the mod was for. ????

Geoff it was put there to make it flat for using it as a table while camping, I guess it would help with your knees too!!

Cheers

SSooooo I have been having the dreaded steering stop squeal again lately and have been experimenting with chair leg ends as an alternative, now a quick glace a fleabay you can pick up a genuine set for about $29, but $29 is $29 and for $2.50 from bunnings i think these will work well!!

The old factory stops


What it looks like under that cap


Bunnings chair end installed

So a few updates, the tractor got some new boots today, 265/75/16 Hancook Dynapro MT paid $230 a tyre fitted, $120 ea less than i paid for the KM2's. Bloody quiet for a MT

Also a few weeks ago fitted a 28inch 180W light bar to the bull bar and a 18w work/reverse light to the rear.

 

[04SilverSTR]

Reverse light.
