Offroad-Express

My brother is looking for a couple of old Wrangler MTRs in any warrantable state. Just needs to get a WOF so he can sell his truck. Anybody have any old ones floating around? 31/10.5R15

Failing that, what about a full set of worn ATs or MTRs for cheap?

Cheers,
Mark

ps, bidding is starting at $3010

If you're after a cheap Safari jump on over to http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-ca ... 883520.htm and have a bid.

Auction closes Wed night.

I'll bring it to Mike's attention in the next couple of days. I'm sure he can arrange something.

OK, that's enough thread jacking. I really do not want to get into 'moderator mode' again. I have better things to do. But while Mike is away for the next 2 weeks I'm going to request that all of you simply don't respond to any of this. It IS possible to ignore posts... you just turn your brain on a...

Any spare seats available? Can meet at Featherston and leave my car there so no need to drop me anywhere afterwards :) <-- was that groveling enough or should I offer beer at my place the night before which allows a much longer sleep in that the poor Welly guys meeting at 7:30 on the other side of ...

My 5yr old heard about it tonight. He's now coming with me too ;) I didn't think that he would after the last river trip that he did... standing on the seat to avoid the rising water! As far as the diffs go, you should be ok. Think of it as a test trip... if at the end of the trip you have water in ...

I think you should change your avatar before this trip Reece

Cheers dude, but unfortunately its still known as Marks River, coz we both have the same first name and you did it first. Bugger, I forgot that small detail! As part of my experience, I would recommend whipping the starter motor off and pulling it apart to check it's not full of water before attemp...

Oh man, I'm sorry to hear about that Skid. It now seems that I had a lucky (cheap) escape from Mark's river compared to you. Now it will at least be known as Skid's river ;) I got a text yesterday saying "Skid just did a 'Mark' in RW River". My first response was "Awesome!". Then...

Thanks for the comments and ideas guys. I set to and pulled the two front callipers off today and instantly discovered a significant part of the problem. As I pulled the disc pads out half of the pad bit fell off on most of them and they were so shiny smooth that there was no way in hell that they'd...

So... I took the Whale ('94 Safari LWB) in to get a WOF after sitting around with stuffed brakes for a few months and they failed it on the effectiveness of the brakes. They reckon they are only working at 38% and the brake pedal is a bit spongy. It will lock up one of the rear wheels when you jump ...

Thanks Nibs :evil: And it is just this site I am not remembered in :? all the others I look in are fine and that is on the home computer and the laptop :roll: I was having the same problem. I've just deleted my cookies and restarted my browser a couple of times (after logging in again) and it seems...

Can we get a registration aswell please

If you could flick them my way too that would be great. Need to actually get the Whale out and about.

what sort of performance are you guys getting from this winch in terms of duration from your batteries I've done heaps of reasonably long winches with mine (on the Safari (yes, 12v) and have never had a problem with it running out of juice or putting any obvious strain on the electrical system. I d...

Mike and I used the Landy in it's original form to do the Undie 500 (Canterbury Uni trip where you have to get a vehicle for under $500 and drive it to Dunedin, stopping at as many pubs as you can on the way) in about 1998 or 1999. Therefore, for nostalgic reasons I think we should refer to this eve...

Sounds good. The missus will be away that weekend so let's say Saturday afternoon through to Sunday morning

dude... buy this.

how many months would it take to pay that off?

mmmmmmm... anybody know what it would cost roughly to get a LPG kit installed??

Reasonably good in terms of power, but not efficient at all. I wouldn't own one as a daily driver that's for sure. I get about 300-350kms out of a tank, which is about $120/130 to fill at the mo (never worked out what it is in litres :oops: ) In terms of power, I lined mine up with PR's TD42 turbo o...

Dredger!

Maybe if we have a small refreshments day here in the next couple of weeks to work on some trucks... a certain 7 seater Whale may be available

Duh... MarTy... ignore me, it's getting near the end of a long week!

Mary has asked me to let you know that it has now change to a beer night at Mark's house at 7.00 p.m. He will post up more details in about an hour! God anyone would think I was his bloody secretary of something :lol: :lol: Oooops... did I miss something? I don't want to step on anyone's toes or an...

Yeah, why not. Turn up any time you want from 6pm on. Open invitation. Just bring the usual... beer and meat! We won't be providing anything at such short notice.

We'll see you when you get here PR

We have spare beds if they need it. I believe that you are arranging it for him Jerry, so let me know.

Please note that there will only be 5 trucks doing the 10 hour track, if you are interested please let Curly12 know. You will need to be fully self recoverable for this track and be willing to have possible body damage to your truck. Bags not taking the Whale through!! Might be able to con Mike int...

He won't be doing any driving or passengering before the event... ie, while they are setting up. Therefore he won't have an unfair advantage during the event.

yeah, yeah... at least my Nissan is faster than yours!
