Oh and found out why odometer wasnt working!(switch under the dash,bastards!)

They must of istalled it wrong as the switch should be wired so that only the Odo stops ticking over and it never affects the rev counter or speedo eh. :D

Finally mounted my trans coil where it was supposed to go 2 years ago!!, pull the winch apart, drilled out the rivets and removed the brush holder, removed the rust on the spacer plate allowing the electrons to flow again, put back together again but added some pressure giving washers on the inside of the motor cover to increase the pressure on the brush plate to the motor put the wires back on and runva it fired back into life. painted the winch craddle black, next is the bars hopefully this week. Also watched district 9, glorious basterds and terminator salvation :mrgreen:

You can get things called caramel wheels/signwriting removers that go on a drill, rips the stickers off without touching the paint, then use prepsol,wax & grease remover,petrol to take off the sticky shit.
