Damn, high tide is at an annoying time! 12.07pm!

Was thinking of rimmers as well

Playing at some south auckland parade. Then probably carry on with my 2000 word essay

Finish of my on-board air system finally, then strip the internals out of the truck and give it a good clean maybe take out radiator and give that a clean, If I have enough time do the back leaf springs and shock's.

That should be all for now.

Going fishing! then getting my truck ready for the Northland winch challenge ( support truck only ) this weekend

I have to work tomorrow, but its fine as double time plus Friday off!

Will do when I have it all in

ANZAC parade/service

and then installing my snorkel

preping rear spring towers, then throw some por15 at em.
figured out how to get the spring spacers to stretch over spring locator by heating them up in the oven, so will hopefully have the back end all lifted up a couple inches bring the whole lifting saga to an end... finaly.

started the sitta up after a long time first pop all good... trust old ladeda lol.
so tomorow will be tuning webber and resetting ign timing and another bonus, the 100am bosh alti is charging beautifully 14.2v after relocation and wire up grade yayya

As promised I have finished my on-board air system, I also did the rear shocks (EFS) which I got from Warren (4WDbits) also my second hand leaf springs which I had reset with 50mm lift and an extra leaf put in so happy with the outcome it does look a little high at the back.

spent the day fitting the alternator back into the mrs s15. alternator was tested good at sparky's so cleaned and tightened all connections for the 2nd time and now all sweet

only photo of car thats not on the hdd

Spent the day finishing off the last bits and pieces on the truck getting ready for the Whangarei winch challenge this weekend ,from emails received it sounds like they have some very interesting stages lined up .just hope the weather will be kind
