It has taken me 3 years and about $15,000 to get her to this stage of reliabillity, I am just hoping there won't be any other unpleasant surprises on our trip to the Kimberlies and the Gulf this year.

If poured through the optional Hiclone Funnel it uses less fluid and illuminates with an additional 5 lumens.

Carried out a full service today, all the good oil including diff's etc but on removal of the cam cover (to replace the injector harness) to my utter surprise found it was the original with label attached. It was starting to leak into the red plug, replaced with new but added a good dollop of silicon to the connector so shouldn't need doing for another 14 years [tonguewink]

Attachment 139381


edit sorry about the pic upside down date is 07/03/04

The controlled (10%) bypass is what you want.
180 F is 82c
Need to be careful of USD.
There is a Qld place selling Derale.
I think you would install it after the original cooler and before a new aftermarket cooler.

And I just found a place in Adelaide to query for availability and price.

I finally joined these two together yesterday, road test went great but I need more practice at keeping lock-up in 4th, with the short time i had in top at around 90 it would flare in and out of lock-up.
It seems that after dropping it into top at over 80ks get the box to lock and then gradually build speed to keep it locked, i will need to practice that as it's not that easy.

Light pressure on the go pedal to keep in lock up, less like pushing it and more like holding it in place. Also knock the shifter in to 3rd and run in 3rd lock up.

Will post any answers, and I'm a wee way away from Adelaide!

The place in Adelaide is this one REMOTE OIL THERMOSTAT 1/2 NPT - DP25792

Put some roof racks on, pretty happy with the results[emoji106]
Had some rhino RL280’s that sat way to high!
These are Rola GMEX26-3
