Cross Country inlet manifold paired with their intercooler going into this GU Patrol. 🔧

Here's why it earns its spot. A turbo pushes more air in, but compressing it heats it right up, and hot air is poor air, less oxygen packed into the same space. Run that into the engine and you're leaving power on the table and raising your EGTs, especially loaded up and towing on a long climb.

Run it through a bigger intercooler and that charge air drops back down before it hits the motor. Denser air, more oxygen, more fuel it can safely burn, cooler running and a Patrol that keeps its cool when the going gets hard. 💪

Part 2, so where did the material come from? 👀

Our best theory at this stage is the aftermarket long-range tanks. During fabrication or installation, it’s possible some grinding material, coating or debris was left behind and has slowly made its way into the fuel system.

There’s also a question mark over the fuel source, so for now we’ve cleaned everything out, replaced both filters and sent the 79 back to work.

Next step? Recheck the filters in around 1,000km and see if any more material shows up.

Hopefully it’s just leftover contamination from the initial build, but we’ll keep an eye on it.

Fresh grease packed into the wheel bearing on this Cruiser, done properly by hand before it goes back together. 🔧

Wheel bearings carry the entire weight of the vehicle while spinning at road speed. That grease breaks down over time, gets contaminated with water and dirt after river crossings and muddy tracks, and eventually thins out to nothing. Once it's gone, metal runs on metal, heat builds fast, and the bearing starts to fail.

A neglected bearing gives you play in the hub, a droning noise that gets worse with speed, and worst case it seizes or lets the wheel exit the chat. Not something you want happening loaded up and towing on the highway.😬

Every now and then we get an interesting pump through the door.

There are some serious CAT machinery lovers out there and they've decided to paint their pumps. Surely rocking the mud flaps too?

Got a pump that needs sorting, no matter how it's dressed up? Get in touch with the crew.

We've got a variety of airboxes to suit your rig, and you can check them all out on the website. 🔧

That filter is a game changer, high flow, reusable, and built to keep pulling clean air where a paper element chokes out. Clean it, dry it, refit it. No throwing money at throwaway filters every service.

Head to the website to check out the range, or get in touch with the crew and we'll sort what suits your build. 😎

Sometimes the little things you find during a routine service tell a much bigger story. 🔧

This low kilometre 79 Series came in for servicing, and while changing the fuel filters the boys found a heap of dark, magnetic material caught in the factory filter.

The pre filter was relatively clean, so now the question is… where’s it coming from?

We’ve got our suspicions, but we want to hear yours first. Drop your best guess below and we’ll follow it up once we’ve dug a little deeper. 👇

Pad slapping, it's one of the fastest ways to ruin a brake job. 🔧

Here's why. Old rotors carry a worn surface, uneven wear ridges, glazing and scoring from the pads that lived on them. Slap new pads onto that and they never bed in properly. You get patchy contact, reduced stopping power, judder through the pedal and pads that wear out way before they should. On a loaded 4x4 like this Ranger, that's not a corner you cut.

Do it right and the rotors either get machined true or replaced outright, so the new pads land on a clean, flat, parallel surface. That's what gives you full pad contact, proper bedding, even wear and a pedal that actually feels like it should. 💪

Built for the long haul.🔥

Nathan’s 105 Series FTE LandCruiser came in for a Boostech tune before heading off on a full lap that could see him on the road for up to two years.

With a P4x4 airbox, Cross Country intercooler, bigger injectors, UFI 21L and all the supporting gear, we set it up with a five-map tune including:

⚡ 300HP / nearly 800Nm top tune
🚗 Around 250HP daily tune
🚐 Tow / eco mode
🛞 Dedicated 4WD mode

We could’ve pushed it harder, but for a rig built to tow a big toy hauler around Australia, reliability and usable power come first.

Safe travels, Nathan keen to see where this thing ends up. Follow along on via YouTube at Murphys Mullets & mudflaps. 🙌

Regular servicing matters, especially on a vehicle built to work or go wheeling. A rig like this with bar work, a snorkel and heavy touring / work kit spends its life loaded up.

That's exactly the environment that kills wheel bearings, chews out CV splines and lets moisture creep into the hubs. Left long enough you get a bearing that runs dry, a hub that overheats and a repair bill that dwarfs a service. 💪

Pull it down on schedule and you catch it early, repack the bearings, inspect the shoes, check the seals and grease the splines before wear turns into failure.

Tuning, engine rebuilds, fuel system work, custom fab, the lot. Every job different, every one getting the same attention, whether it's a full strip down or dialling in a map on the dyno.

That's the way we like it. Variety keeps the crew sharp and no two rigs through the door are ever the same. 😎
