SafariTONY says to bring a 6 pack of beer TUI or more as the trip fee for Henry (as we haven't supplied him for a whilst)

was unable to make it but sounded fun!

Truck only 2 hoses away from being back in action.

Next time you go to aotea let me know as i have a gate key.

[Jerry]

Just been investigating my lack of brakes on the way home.....pulled all the wheels off and cleaned them out no stones etc, pulled the last tyre off (passenger front) and as I was doing so it wobbled up and down by 15mm pinion seal has just started leaking recently, the wheel feel like its not coming off and the hub appears to be ok, maybe I've broken the wheel bearing? or its loose?...

Guess I'm lucky it didn't fall off

The rotation of the passenger side wheels can loosen the 2 lock nuts (those big metal nut thingies that you got from my spare parts pile jerry) that tighten the wheel bearing and hold the hub on if the lock washer dosent hold properly, I've had a wheel come off that way and almost lost another. The drivers side is ok coz the rotation keeps the nuts tight.

[Jerry]

So if I drive everywhere backwards half of the time it will help prevent it

Just put an ARB in the front Jerry and it wont really matter if the wheel(s) falls off or not

[Ryan]
