You make it look like it came out of the factory Matt.

And trust me, for numpty's like myself, nothing is ever plug and play!

Looks good Mat, did you go on the tank or engine side of the factory filter?

I filtered the fuel thru the Racor on the tank side; the fuel goes thru the Racor, then thru the genuine filter and into the main pump.

Fair enough, I got a filter from Diesel Care the other day, I am fitting mine on the engine side, so that the alarm in the factory filter should see any water before the secondary 2 mic filter. Good work detailing everything you have done on your car, it becomes a very handy resource :lol:

Half way. Opposite lock reckon the 120 track wouldn't fit a 150.. Nothing a drill and a tape measure couldn't sort out !

still more work to do...

Update: Rails drilled out and fitted up. Rack and ARB awning going on tomorrow !

Time for a well deserved beer. This brings me back into the swing of the old 120, every weekend was mod time and fun !!

cheers

Got the rack on. I want to drop off the awning, reposition the rack further back and refit the awning. That will be the job for next Saturday morning...

This arvo was fun to say the least..

Pulled the rack off, sorted a few problems and refitted the rack plus the awning. It looks pretty good now.

My birthday present just arrived. A Dr Air Pr Flow 150.

It's a big bugger, going to test it now..

Dr Air Pro Flow 150

Tried out the new compressor in the shed. With the leads hooked up to the auxiliary deep cycle and the engine idling on elevated idle, I dropped one of my campers 33 inch BFG tyres to 10psi. The compressor inflated the tyre from 10psi to 33psi in under 2 mins.

Seems like a decent compressor for $230 delivered. Definitely not as hard core as ARB gear, but seems like great value and it is very solidly built.

I will cut the alligator clamps off and fit a Anderson fitting soon.

Got around to fitting the second battery to my camper today. Also fitted up the alloy door kit (secures the battery's) that came with my camper..
