FINALLY got round to fitting the OME shockers on the back, to match the front, two evenings ago. Much more planted rear end now. 120 bucks each, so really need to step up and stop the fishtailing. Also moved the towball up a notch, that will help too.


2007, Y plate 4life,
2010, 55 plate L200 4work++
March 2013, 11 plate Barbarian. Wrapped, OME all round, remapped to 210, straight piped 2.5" SS.

how waterproof does it have to be ? is it going to get a dunking when launching boats etc ? I've used some connectors from an army surplus store that are screw in type on some boats in the past, a bit like this Werbung: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SET-Bryant-410...=item4181b8524c but in olive green

Start a painting my canopy. Just the tailgate and round the Windows today, the rest later in the week. Using very expensive paint and a very high quality roller and the finish is close to that of a spray paint job. Very glossy.
