Awesome.... I don't like to ask, shhh, but is it engineered? I'd love to do that to mine. But I'm the bloke who, when I'm one in thousands are doing 80 in a 70, is the one who gets pulled over.

Will be the next project for me, the ARB pump i fitted in the rear is ****ting me at the moment

Can see it! The ACE pump is shared with V8 and TD5 so mountings should be the same. Just had a look at the site and at the price some will have to make the decision, its around the price of the twin ARB - is this the one you are using Shayne? There are some on Ebay for just over $100 ....

Love the idea of air pumps but suppose the benefits of ACE are on and off road and its constantly in use, the air pump only a half hour or so each weekend away.... There is no way I am giving up aircon, sort of need the alternator, the PAS pump, hmmm, electric PAS may well be a long term project, but this would not leave a space for a air pump.

Have long had another idea for the air pump and will keep mulling that over in the neural mass.

I definitely wouldn't be getting rid of ACE or any of those other things!

There are a number of places you could put a compressor, if you haven't got SLS ... the SLS compressor mount could be used, I think they all had the bracket, you could also mount in the boot.

Endless air style systems are handy, however their ongoing parasitic load on the engine negates the benefits for most people.

With modern 12v compressors and a small tank you can run most of what a 4wd user needs without the ongoing drag on the engine.

I finally got around to painting the roof gutters. The gutters had rusty areas, so I sanded out the rust and added rust remover. The pint is gloss white, But unless you are super tall you won't see the new paint. I have Chawton White touch up paint, but it does not match the 18 year old paint.
Is it possible to get 250mL of colour matched paint?
