    That was my reasoning for going the PTO route as well, even tho it'll cost me ~2x what the 8274 set me back for th e90. Reliability, reliability, speed and simplicity. It does come complete with shafting for the 110 as well by the way.

    When you say you use the top fairhead, do you mean the fairlead is bolted to the top mounting bolts for the winch in the ARB bar or something else completely?

    Also, do you have any photos that show more of the bull bar (I'm having a bit of difficulty deciphering some of the detailed photos) - probably because I haven't got the PTO setup to look at, nor have I had a good look at the ARB winch bar yet. Front viewand top view of the bar would be very useful if you have any.

    Cheers

    Hi Murray

    #1. Amazing build up.
    #2. Whom did you use to transport your truck back from NT. And did you have to empty it of all your stuff? I am considering a similar trick myself but have been told by all trans companies that vehicle must be completely empty!

    Thanks

    Ian

    Hey Murray, a couple of questions:

    That soundproofing you used looks like Formshield, from Clark Rubber. How has that held up? I've used a lot of it and found it's really good, but I haven't put it in the engine bay yet.

    How did you drill and tap the clutch release arm pivot pin? I tried to centre punch a spare I've got, but it looks like it's hardened steel.
    At any given point in time, somewhere in the world someone is working on a Land-Rover.

    Yes it is. I covered the underside of my bonnet in it before driving across the nullarbor. As it doesn't have much mass, it doesn't do a lot against noise, but it makes the underside of the bonnet look nice

    Mine has survived OK. The foam directly above the turbo has melted slightly, so the silver foil stuff isn't attached to (what is left of) the foam over about an 80mm diameter region.

    Yeah, I've got it on the bulkhead above the transmission tunnel and on the tunnel itself, as well as on the floors and seatbase. It's not bad for soundproofing, and works well combined with something heavier, but it's excellent for keeping all that heat out.
