I guess that the position I mounted it in will not really pose a problem, it was just that I had seen where everyone in the States were mounting there's and thought it would be best to do the same.

I think I can live with it's position but I guess a longer cable would have been better to limit access more to the driver only.

I notched out a small peice of the PCM bracket (1cm X 2cm)that allows the cable to exit the bracket but that is all I did because I can easily remove the bracket to get at the chip without having to remove the PCM by getting to the 10mm bolt under the bonnet.

Next time I take out the chip I will take some more photos of the bracket for you if you'd like.

G'day Scott,
I'm really glad to hear that you are over the moon with the FU Chip
The switch pos'n seems ok there. But your point about 'fiddlers' playing with settings could be too much of a temptation.
I'll wait and see when Corey comes up with an availability date for the longer cable. She mentioned late this month. But I'm wanting to order my chip in a couple of weeks to have the delivery arrive home around the same time as I get home from sea at the end of the month.
I have to make a run up to Nanango to see my old man pretty well as soon as I get home (poor old fella is terminal with the big 'C' and not expected to make Christmas). That's a good 5,000km round trip to sort out the Chip over varying terrain and I may be pulling the Rough road van yet. So it would be a very good test with the FU2 6 POs'n and the JWVB.
Pretty well set on: 25hp Extreme Tow, 40hp Heavy Tow, 65hp Medium Tow, 80hp Light tow, 80hp DD & 100hp Perf.
Appreciate the explainations & pics mate. Any more you take will be appreciated.
Cheers fer now,
Reg.

G'day Scott,

Thank you for the thought mate.
I went up and saw him and Mum last time I was home and he wasn't too bad.
I managed to get myself and the 4 sisters together so as we all could say our bit and get his wishes together.
Very tough thing to do, but we all have to face it one day.
I'm the only boy and I got my time with him and we walked down to the dam in the back paddock and sat on the disc plough for a long chat. He told me that he's not scared where he is going, he's always been a good man and holds no fear.
He's almost bed ridden now. My good wife is up there and the 4 sisters take turns standing a watch.
As is his orders to all: No long faces, keep laughing and joking. So their taking the piss out of him constantly and it's all a cheerie atmosphere.
He's determined to hang in there until I get back home from sea.
I see it as another incentive for him to keep going.
He's 82 and reckons he's had a good innings

Cheers Mate,
Reg.
