Rad hoses, fan boss, vacuum pump bracketry, heater hoses, and air valve to control the compressor (Nick has told me what valve I need) to do. Once the transfer box is on then it'll be muffler system on and stand back!!! Can't wait to hear the 6 pot rumble!!

    Bits and bobs day today.. Tank breathers re connected, 12v circuits tested. IGN and start supply's connected to the two relays that will run the 24v circuit...(one for alternator supply, injection pump supply and start relay supply's and the other for starting). Gearbox center bolt manufactured and ready for a small amount of machining so it fits up the center of the LT input gear. Rear support mount plate made, painted and bushed... (Pic included).

    Hopefully.. Its located in the center, so in theory there shouldn't be too much movement.. Its more for support as the gearbox mounts on the ZF are on the bell housing. With the LT hung off the rear I thought it was asking a bit much of the center mounts..

    Vacuum Pump....

    Here's the State Side sourced vacuum pump, along with the Cummins fan pulley which I've modified by adding a vee belt pulley to drive the vacuum pump. I'll be making the mounting plate tonight..
