@Dubbinchris @dogfishlake thanks alot guys! @TexasJack thanks mate, they're just long exposures on the tripod, they range from 30sec to 3min exposures in those 3 pics, it's all new to me so I just go by trial and error for now.

Weather was looking good down here for the first time in months so I went and found some new spots on the coast, and visited a few that I was already familiar with.

Telescopic light pole for the rear work lights, only held together with tape and cable ties in the pic but has been all welded and painted up now. Collapsed Extended

Have had both the 240 LF Blitz and now have the 9" LED's with no real problems, did have to do a bit of grinding on the bracket of the LED's to fit with the high mount.

North Head/Sandy Cape in Western Australia Went for a quick shakedown run after a few months off the road and a lot of work, just an overnighter to make sure all the bugs were ironed out, I figured if there was any little bugs they would show up on a 500km round trip, thankfully trip completed...

Apologies for the late reply, the starting issue has finally been sorted and it wasn't what I thought it would be! First off the 1hz primer was no good - 10mm lines compared to 12mm on the 1hdt pump, and with the effort required to make a reducer it was just easier to accept the air was getting...

Yeah didn't think so, cheers for the confirmation mate. Cracked the s***s yesterday after looking for a stubby screwdriver for 20mins and ended up having a shed/storage drawers cleanup day instead of Cruiser maintenance day, will get back into it after work this week though. Yeah it does get...

Changed the privacy settings now, no I didn't try it with the fuel filter bypassed and I feel like a bit of a dick for not thinking of it myself, will do it first thing in the morning and post up the results. Cheers mate, Dan

The cruiser hasn't been starting up as quick as she used to, being a Di she used to fire as soon as i flicked the key, now it cranks for a couple seconds. I don't know whether it is an air leak or a dying starter, batteries are only a few months old and it had a rebuild 10k/km's ago, drives mint...

My mate Diesel, foreman for the day.

Read the majority of this in my spare time today at work, man you wheel the piss out of this thing Hulsty! Some awesome pics in there! You need to get Sandy and the Aussie Racer crew to do an episode on one of your snow trips!

Shame it's got the 2.8.... I'd take an N/A td42 over the rd28-t any day of the week.

Ground clearance is most definitely an issue, I wheel with a bloke who has the big H260 under his GU ute, he only has 33's and constantly gets hung up on the diff. I am pretty sure he struggled to find a locker for it too but could be wrong there.

Yes I am well aware of that, but I have never ran the STT so shared my experience with the Cooper tires I have used. The lugs chipped out to the point wires were exposed, I got less mileage out of them than I have from the Pro Comps which is pretty bad considering we are comparing A/T's to...
