Ahh well.
I guess that's why I keep a knife under the drivers seat...
Sliders go on tomorrow

I recently heard of a very effective way of dealing with anger towards another human being - write down (using pen and paper, not computer) all your feelings and anger towards the offending party, no holds barred .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. ............................ AND THEN BURN IT.

You can then move on in a positive way, which you seem to be doing by concentrating on fitting your sliders today.

Have a good day mate and don't forget the photos with the sliders fitted.

Was it just the actual screw things that fit over the tabs? My entire tabs were missing. Cut some right angle alloy and bent out to the right angle to match and slotted to match the original bits. Then glued and riveted into place.

Hi,
while I had the tray off, I finally got around to mounting the Anderson plug for the slide-on in a proper retaining type housing so I don't have to occy strap it every time to stop it falling out and not charging the house battery.



cheers

Draw filed the exhaust manifold flanges that present to the head of a TD5. all pits removed and the distortion across the flanges now trued up.
.

Put my winch on, bar off was easy, bar back on was easier enough.



Winch to bar?
eh, not so
It's on, still needs to be wired up though.
Whoever proclaimed the Tigerz11 12000lb winch was easy to put on clearly never did it on a D2 bar using fairlead rollers
Slider plans are still being drawn up, waiting for some bits and pieces but they'll be on soon enough
Spotted a nice SIIa in a car yard between wellington and dubbo, looked immaculate.
The end result, apologies for bad pics, phone camera in the dark isn't so crash hot



Cheers

I ended up buying a new console,suprisingly cheap, looks the dogs bollocks

put the bike on the back of the Landy, drove 30k to Chiltern, rode 40k for a local fundraiser for prostate cancer research ( Chiltern MO ride) ..and drove home again. Great morning.
