Gee Josh, looks like it needs to get dirty ;-)

Fair go I only just washed it from our last outing! We managed to leave a fair pile of Toolangi mud all over Dads workshop floor! Anthony would have booted me out of his workshop and then made me mop the floor!!

So took the 150 for a spin today, very happy with the ride and handling, just need to remember its sitting a bit higher when I go to get out.. Spent a bit of time sorting out the last few mods for the drawers before I make the next prototype, this time in ply, I've been and grabbed some carpet this arvo to cover them, with the view of some field testing on Fraser in a few weeks.

So this week I need to complete my drawers, order my custom half cargo barrier, finish wiring my driving lights and sort out an awning.. Then off to Kilsyth for the ARB factory tour (Sam I'm happy to field test some bash plates for you!) So another quiet week..will there be time Saturday morning for a quick Wombat run with some of the Vic Crew... Hmmm

Still bent :-) on the lookout for a dark blue LHS quarter panel and still dissing out what to d about the bar.

It's not holding me back in the meantime though!

Before I forget stock measurements with bar, winch and dual battery

Front left 861

Front Right 860

Back left 901

Back right 903
.

Front left 912

Front right 915

Back left 960

Back right 965

So the front has settled in and I currently have 50 mm lift! I'm taking no notice of the back measurements, as the drawers are currently empty and no fridge and less fuel than when I took the original measuremts.

New drawers are coming together nicely and I've ordered a custom cargo barrier from Autosafe this afternoon. So we're slowly getting through the jobs list.

I finished off my second pro type of drawers today, they're bolted in ready or some field testing tomorrow @ Wombat and hen start packing them Sunday for Fraser. Hopefully pick up my awning as well after a quick play in Wombat and get that bolted on Sunday as well.

Carcass components ready or assembly

Very good. How did you bolt them in?

[JPH Advanced Member Find all posts View Profile Close JPH]

Through the base into the 4 existing seat bolts, the front will be connected to the bottom of the custom cargo barrier. Should do the job..

Must admit I spent the morning at work finishing them off, was going to do the infills later but kept going. Got a few ideas for the next set.. They'll be for Shan's 120, better get onto that first thing Monday.

Had an enjoyable evening at the ARB factory tour tonight, but should go to sleep so we can go for a quick cruise in the morning with a few of the Vic crew and one Tas crew! Then off to get my awning! Might even give the swags a test run in the backyard!
