Re: air rifle 177.cal
U can buy my .12 gauge if you want. Bit of a step up but I need to sell. Its got a folding stock so it sits on the dash of the truck quite nicely, 7 shot remington pumpy.

Re: GT Radial Adventuro MT Advice sought PLZ
Bighorns? I'll google. Sorry no pics at this point. After 33's.. I don't have the exact measurements. I'm a bit of a rookie.. I had a lump sum of cash come my way so I can finally start putting some effort into my truck and start using it for what i bought it for

Loud Bangs/Problems with Electric/Auto Hubs (SWB L/cruiser)
Hi all, Bought a L/cruiser a year ago and had a few loud bangs and a feeling as if the vehicle wanted to swerve to the left of the road at the same time of the bang. I did some checks and was satisfied that the hubs weren't 'locked'. To make things worse, I found out recently I had different size ...

GT Radial Adventuro MT Advice sought PLZ
Hi all, Before I spend my well earned cash, Has anyone got anything to say re these tyres?
Any advice appreciated. I am looking at another two and am leaning towards this type. the others are Nangkang MTs and Buckshots which are almost identical to the nangkangs.
Cheers
