Light bar wired up! Works really well, even makes a difference when its not very dark. I'll test it properly later, but really impressed for now. :)

Trailmaster steering damper fitted this afternoon. Really nice quality kit. The lack of instructions made the challenge more fun, but it was still really simple to fit. Works well too, although now the steering has been firmed up, I find it doesn't recentre quite like it used to, but out on the road, it is really stable and much nicer to drive! :) Picture tomorrow!

Brake pads changed today after the brakes started to make a bad noise. I thought the pads were just very low, turns out:

One guess which the old pad is. :whistle:

But now, the long peddle travel is gone, no bad noises and much better brakes. :)

Surprisingly, the brakes were still working before I changed the pads. But the they were starting to score the disc, so caught it before it got expensive. Ahh the joys of pay and plays and very abrasive sand... ;)

Put in a K & N air filter today. Certainly makes for a responsive drive, which is nice. I haven't done too much recently as modding funds are a bit low, but £27 for a K & N filter was pretty good considering they go on eBay for around £35.

I'm looking to get a roof rack at some point in the nearish future, as I need space for me and three others to go camping for 5 days, and the Jimny is a little low on boot space... ;)

I found one on eBay that looks possible:

I did spot Adamoffroad's for sale post, but unfortunately ts a bit too much money at the moment, and a little too far away. If he still has it in a few weeks time, then I will have a punt. :)
