About time you updated your cars! Ever get one of the people who you helped with your cars to help you with the 940?

Pretty much. There's so many ring terminals on it now that I literally can't fit one more.

I also updated the first post to reflect the work done since I started the thread.

Original alternator died. Replacing with Terrain Tamer 120 amp unit.

Soldered the replacement plug and wiring in to the original harness. Also retaped the factory split tubing. End result looks factory.

Also, the diff lock wiring is now complete, and it works.

Does it have a PTO so we can mount a mower under it?

I really should get the tractor going.

Picked up a couple of things on the weekend. The tray is from Dubbo City Welding and was made in 2014. I have a few modifications in mind before I fit it to the ute, however it's a lot better starting point than the current tray.

I also got some new Kumho MT71s to try.

Bigger tyres than what you have been running or same?

Better watch out rolling around on big tyres. Cops have been targetting any 4wd that looks modified lately. Done big operations at clarence and richmond raaf base in the last few weeks.

Same size as before, 315/75R16. Thanks for the heads up, I've heard about that, and saw a modified Hilux pulled over in Bilpin on the weekend. I haven't been driving the ute far from home at the moment.

I also picked up a set of HZJ105 GX 16x6.5 steel wheels to match my spare. I'd like to try a set of 255/85R16 on these.

The auto electrician is having no luck getting the air conditioning working, and we're also struggling to find a wiring diagram for the air conditioning system. He's suggesting it could be the amplifier or thermistor, but I'd be looking at over $700 for those with no guarantee they'll fix the problem.

Does anyone have a good source for wiring diagrams?

Went out for firewood, had to wait for some blokes from Sydney to cross a creek, so grabbed some photos.

I got to try out the Eaton/Harrop E Locker for the first time and was impressed. I think I'll get one for the rear diff too.

This looks unfair.
