Re: a warning to southland and otago club members
Being that i know the vehicle, even without the photos... I dont doubt it. But in his defence... Ive seen this vehicle on its roof or side many times, so It must be good as gold! mind you, you may likely draw a similar conclusion to my vehicle.. the cage is one of the only bits ive never played with...

Re: X5 Project.
Hey. The alloy cover is a good look... not being critical, as I cant see the detail but just check everything is still ok after you first you that in anger.. its a large winch and the framework looks a little light.. especially with the mounting in shear.

Re: An Un-named Outlaw...
I suppose but it's all relative.. a 200a 12v and a 50amp 48v although use the same (approx) as they make the same amount of energy. I know you'll understand all that but for reference the 48v 100amp unit ran the Kubota 13hp at ~75% when max output. Out of interest what is ur trailer axle? I'm on the...

Re: MCC bars, who sells them

Re: Plasma cutters??
If you have talent you can do anything. I don't have talent I have CAD and laser cut bracketry wins every time.

Re: "Stolen" 38" Super Swampers & BFG Muds
the swampers were off the bug but in a pile up the side of my house, behind a gate, under a security light, beside the dog kennel...
Should be all over FB by now. at 50kg each for the swampers and over a meter tall, there must have been a few of them and a trailer to fit all 8!
