Thread: Winaje's D3 Build

Have finished the wiring on the compressor, ended up going very simple in it.
Safari snorkel was done a couple of weekends ago, always a nervous time when cutting into nice clean panels.
Also have installed a Labtronx aerial mount.
Photos to follow

Show us the pics ! Nice job on the compressor

My gme radio is here. Hope the pic works

Looking good Will, those BMW rims do look good, very similar to the D4 18s.

4 roof bars, first time I've seen 4, what's going on top!

Hi Baz, no particular plan for the roof at this stage. I used 4 as I'm slightly OCD and the spacing has to be perfect (it is to the mm both length and width lol). This spacing of 510mm centre to centre gives me 1.6m spread over the 4 bars, and plenty of overhang capacity too.

The bars are rated to 100kg per pair, I'm aware of load rating on the roof, dynamic vs static etc. too. At this stage there will be a couple of Black Wolf Turbo 240 tents going on them in November for 4 days in the high country. Blue Rag, Wonnangatta etc.

Looking good Will...

Great setup Will. Some inspiration there. What is the Traxide extra earth plate? I too have one of Tim's DBS kits but haven't come across an earth plate.
