28-29 March

Postby Mattman » Sun Mar 29, 2015 6:37 pm

Went to Costa Plenty with about 12 other trucks. Day 1 was good. Hard rain for day 2 which was crazy. Nearly had to winch out to leave haha!

Bit of carnage among the group. Axle. CV. Tierod. Alternator. Brake lines. Panhard. Panel damage.

Great trip. Good facilities.
