I didn't say it was better in the bottom, I just said it was easier and quicker.

Pic taken at cununda national park last week :)

Have fitted the thermo fan for the air cond condensor/ radiator , and has dropped water temp as well as my air con seems to work a lot better at idle now also! Well worth it.

Found some swamps just off the Victorian border last night, so had a bit of a play around so now I have a lot of cleaning to do haha

TUFF TROOP - just been reading your build up mate! NIIIICE Truck!!

hopefully mine will be the same one day ;)

Just wanted to ask, I have a light bar on the bulbar just like yours and was wondering where you ended up putting the winch box?? could you maybe put a couple of pics up for me. Much appreciated if you do. Thanks Mate!

Also are you happy with the TJM Snorkel?? No issues?
It is what it is...

Cheers mate :-)

I relocated my winch box to under the bonnet in front of the battery behind the headlight. Fitted a wireless controller so don't need to use the lead one. But if I ever have to it's easy to access!

I will take some photos and post up when in home ( currently on the way to Adelaide with a ill daughter )

Love the tjm snorkel. The best snorkel around IMO for looks and fitment
