Fitted a speedo healer from the states to fix the speedo being out of wack. Simple kit that is plug and play until it comes to the maths on finding the right conversion and then converting from miles to km. the system works great however.

Fitted a new CTEK DC-DC battery charger for the duel battery kit and wired the charger up for the Korrlighting 165W solar panel.

Fitted a speakeasy phone cradle for my iPhone which is hard wired into the dash and also has a tricky induction antena fitting that let me mount a 6.6dB external arial. Not to sure about the glass induction option I chose as the roof rack cage seems to interfere. I might go for a bulbar option or a fold down one for the roof rack.

I still have a shithouse shudder in the transmission somewhere and it could be anything from the front brakes, the uni's, prop shaft, wheel bearings to the transmission itself. I have played around a bit and it sounds like a rattle from the front left ish side when you come to a stop. I have done it in and out of gear so I don't think it's transmission related. Brakes or bearing are my thoughts. I will get my mechanic to look at both. I wouldn't mind changing wheel bearings anyway with a Simpson trip in the pipeline.

Still trying to get my lighting sorted with a 50" light bar to go on the rack somewhere. Not to mention the 6" light bar reversing light/ camp light on the back. My camp lights are now wired to the awning which has the camp side sorted ish.

Now I just have to fit those HD draw slides and I will all most be happy with my trip prep.

Installed an Eaton E Locker in my 44 over the last 2 nights. Removed my Powertrax auto locker. Wasnt a hard install, just a pain getting the right contact pattern on the gears. Still need to get the wiring done.
