    Hi NT,
    looks great. Congrats. I am interested to know what tyres were on it before you swapped them out...?
    Thanks

    Did you remember to say au revoir to the Jeep?

    You will have to live with the guilt yer know, if you didn't.

    Yarnmaster - Yes I did, and I gave it a final pat and a "Job Well Done!".

    Gregz - I paid them very little attention, to be honest, but they were a Goodyear HT SUV tyre.

    PS I was driving down the freeway today and I thought there was a sudden loss of traction on the dry bitumen. Then it dawned on me, it was the Lane Keeping stuff doing its thing. Quite disconcerting until I figured it out!

    Did you also have even a solitary tear in your eye? I did, from a passing distance.

    I will miss it. The Grand Cherokee does a very good job at an excellent price point - but the Disco is in another league. I hope the new owner enjoys it as much as I did.

    The main thing is that you have made your peace with him/her so all will be fine now.

    I have been a little busy sorting a few things out. I spent 14 hours with an auto electrician doing some major wiring. I now have a Redarc Tow Pro Elite, Anderson Plug and the wiring for the camper rear view cameras at the tow hitch. I have a twin camera dashcam wired in. I have now hardwired a phone cradle with antenna, six wheel TPMS and cradle with USB power for my 8" Samsung tablet for OziExplorer.

    I have also fitted a short Narva LED light bar under the front number plate.

    I got one of the D4 spare wheel winder adapters from Tuffant. It fits well and I have worked out an extended 1/4" drive so I can use a battery drill to wind the spare up and down. I will make up a replacement floor for the boot with a small hatch so I don't need to empty the car to wind down the spare.

    I can't post pictures at present because I can't access Photobucket for some reason.

    Cheers

    Photobucket is still down, so I will try something else...

    I fitted a small Narva lightbar:










    I made up a bracket out of some perforated strap from Bunning. I wrapped it around the plastic supports in the opening. I then made some smaller brackets up to hold the lightbar in place vertically.

    Cheers
