Taking inspiration from @Stumpy Paj I decided to go ahead with installing onboard air via arb single compressor. I decided to mount inside the space where the spare wheel goes, and run the air outlet to the side where I have a hard mount for the insta360 camera. Very simple job once you have drilled the mounting holes in the wheel mount. Terminated to ground on the factory point inside the rear space, and extended hot power to battery with inline switch at battery. Extended the pressure sensor and isolation switch up into the auxbeam gangpanel controller recommended by @Frederic. Super happy with the result. Here are some pics.

Thanks for the great drive today @Simon D and @Davie Chase Fun 50km with some great side sloping opportunities! See you all sometime soon in the sand

oh no im out of the country! Looper Can you do it again in January for me and @Jaro Tuzinsky ?

This sounds awesomely fun, and awesomely ambitious 🤩

this combo on my bushranger air max 3 compressor doesnt do the job... get some back pressure in the hose and get a small burst of air... then not enough airflow to move sand off my dashboard. Really need tank option (even the arb single compressor with tank should do the job)

Great edit! Such an amazing day!

@Dan SI couldn't find it either...

Congrats mate!

hope to see you on some more drives soon

Lovely to drive with you all today on this holiday! Started off with spotting a heap of camels training on the race course... with another train of camels about 15 minutes into the desert from al lisali. Heading south west we came up on Solar Innovation park and about 500m of tarmac where we had our first break and let the pajero cool down a bit! From there we headed south until coming up on the Miltary Shooting range, tracking around the fence line until coming into ghantoot area where we spotted the running gazelles and oryx., A few more gazelles spotted whilst searching for mini oasis and palm trees around ghantoot. I have us at 90km in 4:39. I'll try drop some photos into the gallery tonight. Thanks to @Ale Vallecchi for taking us on a great tour, and to the support guys at the rear helping out. See you all in the sand next time!

Thanks for update @Ale Vallecchi can you please drop the meeting point. See you 0800 👍

Happy Birthday mate!

dreams dreams dreams. does have a cool retro look as well. 😍

I expect it might be a tiny difference to this as think this is previous model (2024 has 6 speed auto trans only), but imagine its largely the same weight wise. This def beter for the ballpark figures. Thanks for the info link @Gaurav

Ah that makes a lot more sense. Thankyou🙏

What am I doing wrong here? Out of interest was looking at the specs from al futtaim for the new LC70 3 door. The HP is at 228 and weight at 2600kg.. giving it around mid-80s using Gaurav's formula below putting in well in the borderline performance category. Thats a lot heavier than my 5door pajero... can these figures they are publishing be right? I would have expected a lot better from a 4L v6 on a short body like that.

@Gurcharan Mehta should be fine 👍 think its more referring to the drive that Ale did before where we all messed around and had a bit of fun using names from the Long Range Desert Group... can see it here.

agreed, would love to get involved but cant do two days with the kiddos with this notice. can def smash the totally agree button tho.

Sounds like you need a visit to the mechanic mate 😓
