I did a little more on the splitter today. I made up some stays/brackets out of ally that connect the front of the splitter to the chassis rails. I utilised a spare bolt hole on the end of each rail and ran some ally strap through the splitter with a 90deg bend at the end, screwed into the splitter from underneath. The splitter is now able to support at least half my body weight and the suspension moves rather than the bottom of the bumper lip.

I'll get some pics tomorrow.

I had planned to get some other stuff done in the shed, but discovered the battery was flat as a tack. I left the keys in the ignition for a week, and I guess they must have been in the acc position or something. Wouldn't start with a battery pack either. I have it out on the charger at the moment, but after most of the day it is only reading 50%. Might be time to look at the Odessy/Pulse/Optima battery replacement. I reckon I only need the PC680MJ or equivalent, as I am not running AC, Heaters, demisters, sound systems etc. My current battery weighs 17kg, and the 680 weighs 7kg. It'd be nice to lose another 10kg.
