GQ Aerial?
G'day all,
Searched and searched but no go...
97 GQ patrol st, the aerial is on the front passenger guard. How do you take the whole unit out without an angle grinder? Just welded up the guard and need to paint it.
Cheers heaps for any help!

Instead of piggy backing the power to the switch off the 30 on the relay, I ran a wire directly from the battery via a 30amp fuse to the switch, I then ran a separate wire via another 30 amp fuse to the 30 on the relay. Just seemed the better option??? Or am I wrong ...

Hi all,
The time has come to replace the drag link tie rod ends... Done some thinking... Can I change these to rose joints giving me less restriction? And will they be road legal? Just a thought?
