Stuart, it's a standard grille (one I bought cheap as it was broken) that I then customized , I shall post pics up if anyone is interested
I kept the old one just in case it looked crap so I could change them back again

haha ok. good job!

Put too much veg oil in, and now it won't start as its only 2 degrees! Balls!

Fill the filter with deisel and crank it through..
give it a few heats too, and wait for the relay to click off. up to 15 seconds..

fitted chequer load liner drilled and screwed looks great to me and as i was out and about this morning stopped off at a parts place purchased some rectangular ring spot lamps quite like the look of them on my a bar wasnt keen on the round ones so just need the plug and play thingy off les now i will now be trying to up load pics of the BEAST the rest of the day/night

Today i finally fitted the new spare wheel carrier so i now got a spare on the truck again.
I also sorted the brake problem i had where it felt like it was locking on the n/s and pulling the truck.Well as a new mod this has to be a big big donkey moment.When i did my camber shims the other week i never tightened the new bolts up enough and every time i cornered hard or went over the slightest bump there was a really big clonking noise.So after fitting new bolts today the noise has gone and the brakes are now back to normal
