Been a little quiet lately but over the last couple of weeks I've managed to get the auto bash plate modified to clear the front tailshaft on full droop
Good idea to mod the auto bash plate, still on my list to.
Could you send us a few more pictures, of how you done it?

Altered the standard flares to look like flatties
And to finish up just purchased some brand new
285/70R17 mud tyres Federal
They will be used purely as a second set of tyres for our easy country drives I am now famous for.
Oh yeah Wendy made me put the soft top on ( which was a pain in the ass)
We also made up a storage platform to store the hardtop with a block and tackle from the rafters in the garage
Apart from that things have been a little quiet

What federal muddies are those I am looking at a larger tyre and seeing what brands are out there

G'day BT, was this easy to fit? Relocating the SS will be the next modification I do. I'd appreciate any hot tips that you have
I had no idea what to do I am not very mechanically minded so got stu to supply and fit it for me ( thanks stu ) he also replaced the crappy trackbar bolts.
I am sure some of the more knowledgable guys like Yom or Seacomm can help yuo out if you send them a pm

aydanrogers - Thanks for putting that pic up with your UHF aerial mount - I copied your idea and mounted in the same place yesterday:
I didn't bother screwing it into anywhere (yet) as I'll be unplugging it & putting it into the centre console during the week and plugging it in on weekends when driving around.
Also thinking of eventually putting a fuse box in behind the glove box to power other things - but that is all in due course
Picked up a rear ARB bar (thanks Yom ) and gave it a good sand blast to remove any oils and waxes, filled the rock rash and gave it a good sand then a few coats of satin black enamel. Looks good enough to me! Will let it cure for a few days while I work out what to do with the number plate then stick it on later this week. Will prob mount the number plate on the spare wheel, just need to make up a bracket for it. Not keen on the ones that poke though the middle of the spare wheel as I dont want to pop the cap out every time I rotate (then either break or lose the centre cap...)

G'day mate,
My Cousin and I knocked these simple brackets up, they mount off the spare wheel and there is a rubber strip behind to protect the wheel. I added a pic for ya:
Anyway, does the job for us and it was made from scraps that were laying around, so cost next to nothing
