Thought I had better show my latest tow wagon/daily driver. I got a little carried away on the mods for a daily driver maybe :oops: .

Before

and after many mods and many hours of tinkering.

Image

It usually has 33" coopers on it, but this was taken just before a weekend away to the central plateau, so had the mud tyres fitted borrowed from the rough truck.
Here is an action shot from that weekend

and here is the my surf rough truck in action

Yup according to the guy i bought it off it was done in taupo , havent had any problems with the front diff yet other than the usual ball joints / c.v boots splitting.

Went out sunday just been and had a few dramas with the front drive shaft flange on the transfere case rubbing on the gearbox crossmember *put a new mount on not to long ago and it seemed it fix the problem up until now* , Then driving home noticed a knocking noise from the gearbox sounds like in input shaft bearing as it does it in all gears and sounds like it is right beside my left foot when driving. so called the gearbox specialist today and he reckons about $1200 to do bearings , seals , and modify the 3rd and 4th gear syncros which apparently are a weak link in the R151f box , so might be off the road for a wee while doing that , also going to do the clutch at the same time as the heavy duty puck clutch in there is a C-unt to use espically with hill starts and shudders bad also so out with that.

few pics from sunday..
