Looks liek a good and vry muddy day out!

Did you still need those shims Mike, I have been so busy with the house move that I've forgotten what my workshop looks like

Haha, no it's not fading that's merc 2pack red !! Better not fade, it was dirty before it went, and still is now. There's areas which are dented now, so I may do a coulour change anyway. Probably go for yellow. Which is what I wanted originally but changed my mind last minute.

No it's cool Scottie the centre of the diff was machined instead so I didn't need them

thanks anyway though pal

Hopefully go playing again this weekend. We shall see

Mike.

go for jcb yellow same yellow as me disco! out of interest how tall is it on the trailer?

Umm not sure about the colour yet.

Dont know how tall, tows well though, I strap the front and rear recovery points down, rather than round a wheel. Stops the body rolling

line lock on its not going anywhere with the brakes jammed on.

It touches my garage door going in, so that's 7 ft, 2/2.5ft trailer height? Is quite large. Rar axle is as wide as my trailer 6.6ft wide. She's a big old girl.

Dammit I love this zook. Have you ever thought of making her road legal?

mike harris · Post by **mike harris** » Thu Dec 12, 2013 7:17 am

running this on the road isn't really an option. It's to slow and big. Plus the fact I wouldn't want to wear the tyres out and most of the sites I go to take me an hour in my navara.

She's a trailer queen now, the other issue is I don't fuck about when I am offroading so the likely hood of me breaking it is quite high !! It's a bit big to push home lol

My plan now is to fit the rear winch, second charging system ect. Good service and fix a furling issue it has.

Then the prep begins for next years challenges
