    Default Ready for Jambo yet?

    Illness has stuffed me up so the Jeep still needs more work.

    Left to go include, replace overflow valve in fuel tank, replace leaf spring u-bolts, replace snapped handbrake cable, replace diff fluids and check others and give the trailer the once over etc.

    As a precaution I also upped my NRMA membership to the highest level to cover the camper etc, turns out it was a good time to do it as it included a free handsfree bluetooth car phone kit.

    So what has everyone else left to do?

    Cheers

    Install Lift & Rear locker, full service(front diff, engine, gearbox, transfer case oils & flush radiator), replace distributor & degrease engine & bay due to the oil leak form the dizzy.
    Then start to repack, look for a new house & sort it out so I can move in as soon as I get back from Jambo, not much really.

    Also need a replacement 31X10.5 x 15 Good year wrangler MTR

    My post-Desert Trip service and Jambo Prep are overlapping. I have changed the engine oil, fluid in both diffs, and transfer case last week. Doing the auto tranny filters and fluid today (the RTV is setting up right now). The camper needs a once over but I'll leave that to the last weekend. New air filter goes in before I go and I'll take a spare as well. Of course the spares box is another matter!
