Pretty easy to install as well, given they come with the silicone already.

Also received the EVO MFG C-Gussets and Smittybilt CRES. C-Gussets and the LCA Skids I already have will need to go off for fitting. I suck at welding. The CRES will wait until the SpiderWebShare arrives.

Interestedto see how much shade cab be added to the rear between the two, coverage for bub in her seat.




Couple of pics of the Out4x4/Thermocore liners fitted up.
Brings the standing temp down massively, and helps to improve the a/c efficiency. Just a pity the JK didnt come with climate controls (ie set temp)..

Collected my new toy this morning.
SarMajor Camper Top on an army engineers trailer.
And now if I can stay in Australia long enough, I will get to try it out!
Was hoping for a trip away at the end of Nov, but going to Arizona instead

Its under the weight for trailer brakes!
You can lift the drawbar with one hand and spin it around - the balance is a little too good, and I need to add some weight over the front to get some weight down on the pintle hook.
I've also got to figure where to mount the spare!!!! On the drawbar where the jerrycan carrier is not longer used might be the mounting point - Need to spend time looking at it to figure it out.
I might also work out something to put the spare between the wheel boxes, under the camper.

Finally put the pre filter top on my AEV snorkel that I fitted a couple of months ago need a few mods to fit with the rack notch in the prefilter as shown in the pics and made a new A pillar bracket to set the snorkel forward
Also fitted AEV slush mats




Also fitted up my new battery that was replaced under warranty so now the optima I bought to get me out of trouble will go in the back with a dc-dc charger and an overide solenoid for winching
Picked up the 47ltr ARB fridge and a new trailer that im fitting up with a second hand assie made tent I have

Default cargo barrier

just fitted the Dirty Dog cargo net, picked it up from Poly 4x4, seems to fit well and I will be a little more comfortable with some cargo restraint in place.



Still need to do some adjustment on the net but it was pretty easy to fit.
