    Also finished and installed my torque pro phone mount I made from oak. I decided to stain it black. My main screen is set up to display my GPS speed, battery voltage, gps trip, total gps trip, intake air temp and coolant temperature. I have it set up to show that my coolant temp is cold by a...

    Fitted my panhard bar and Adrenalin 4X4 HD steering arms this Saturday. Aligned both axles and set the alignment to toe out 3 degrees. The previous set up was toe out to 1.5 degrees. The spec is 0-10 toe out so I went for 3. It feels better than ever and now my steering wheel is straight again...

    Yeah originally it was going to stay light coloured but now having different ideas. I have seen the mod but not interested in doing any stereo work atm.

    Been working on this oak phone mount which displays all my live data etc. Can't decide on the stain. Was thinking black to match the dash and not stand out so much. Then maybe spray the fake wood trim black. What do you think? (The phones not fully mounted by the way as its a very tight fit so...

    Completed my work on the transfer case, all went really well. Its a good job I got a new gearbox coupling looking at the state of my old one! Installed the box yesterday and working great, another thing ticked off the list. Happy days.

    Ha ha, it is a struggle and I do get into trouble sometimes. Not so much with the money but the time spent working on him. I just say it's all in preparation for our holiday! The chassis job was a really tough one! I have a problem and can't help myself! Ha ha ha

    While the transfer box was out I thought it would be rude not to buy an Extreme Bailey Morris propshaft made to a custom length to suit my truck, finished in slate grey. :D

    I've also fabricated my adjustable panhard bar. Using a M20 rod end with custom made stainless m20 to m16 reducer spacers. Removed the bush and awaiting powder coat.

    So here's my solution to the speedo drive hole. Used a speedo drive bush, welded in a bit of 16mm bar, flushed it off and sprayed it black. I've also got the bracket and bolt to hold it in place.

    I've setup a dti gauge and worked out the correct shim needed. Luckily a friend had the exact shim so that's in now and is perfect. No pic of the lastest stage unfortunately. New bearing, seals etc fitted. Here's a couple during work.

    Then I noticed another small problem. The new box has a hole for the speedo drive! Bugger. All ready working on a fix. Picked up a speedo drive top hat bung which seals in the hole with an o ring, just need to weld a small disc to the end to stop the oil coming out then this is held in with a...
