All done, engines in, up and running, all went without a hitch, started on the button, ran up perfect!! Even managed to wire up an electric fan so hopefully no more overheating weekends!! The temp gauge isn't working so I shall sort that but otherwise im ready to get muddy again!!
Ohj and stu has gone out and got himself a Pejaro SWB so he will be coming on the 30th with us in his own truck...

No posts for 4 days !!!!!
the thread nearly fell off the first page
I cant find the source of my steering knock, its just as you rock the wheel side to side. Thought it was the lower column but changed it and it wasnt. Seems to be coming from the main column so more investigation needed.

Got me winch bumper finished today all painted up and looking good
Good stuff, hope you made it nice and strong, when i first used mine i was a bit worried it was gonna pull the bumper apart!!
I just got me a tent, not quite as cool but £19 from tescos, bargain. Its kinda gutting tho, im use to camper vans, not tents! Im gonna have to save up for a syncro camper i think...

As promised here's some pics, got it all mounted but the heavens opened so I'll have to wire up another day
There's something satisfying about fabbing stuff yourself I'm well chuffed how it turned out got to say a big thanks to matt for the help with the tray now I just got to get me one of those plasma cutters
Little man is due to Finnish school in a mo so I'm looking forward to seeing his little face when he see's it mounted.
Hopefully get some pics of little man using it when we go thetford will have to get my self stuck just for the fun of it
