Just got this pic. The sensor was easy just drill a hole and place the sensor inside rubber grommet and secure.

Tyres and rims on with 1.5" wheel spacers. Tyres stick out about 1". Boos Bashplates, JBA Uppers and DBA T2 slotted rotors have arrived.

Bought everything I needed for a refresher of the suspension.

Still waiting on the Lovell's lift to arrive ordered 22nd September, been told they are waiting on front shocks which should arrive 22nd December. Holiday booked for 30th so cutting it close. 3 month wait better be worth it.

Got her booked in at 4wdUSA here in Perth for a full check over and all fluids replaced (front & rear diffs, transfer case, transmission, engine and coolant).

Swapped my spare diff in (kinda), been wrestling with park brake cables as they are a total beast. At least she is now resting on the springs with all the control arms bolted up, the factory arms are actually in pretty good nick considering the use they've seen. I will say the pan hard rod was a monster to get to line up and suspect it chewed up the threads on the bolt to get it in.

If your talking about installing the handbrake at the axle end I agree, my superlift is finished but that’s what’s holding me up.

Yeah that end was a bear of a thing, but mostly due to trying to get the sequence of things right, once I got that sorted the second side was done in 5-10 mins.

1. Back off drum adjusters as far as you can
2. Remove adjuster spring (the smaller/lighter one)
3. Remove return spring (the bigger one)
4. Remove top shoe
5. Remove park brake actuator

To install you need to back off the tension on the cable so you start at the back with some slack.

1. Remove rear seat (lower section)
2. Lift carpet up to get to balancer
3. Detach balancer from handle cable (this will give you slack in the cables to the drums)
4. Hook park brake actuator to cable
5. Install top shoe
6. Install return spring (the bigger one)
7. Install drum adjuster
8. Install adjuster spring (the smaller/lighter one)
9. Back inside the car use multigrips to pull the handbrake cable as far backward(towards rear of car) as possible, then lock them to stop it returning to its normal position
10. Then get the balancer and leaver it as far forward(front of the car) as you can with a screw driver
11. Reattach the cables between the balancer and handbrake
