Re: 1st-4th
well some more has been done to the truck painted and have started putting things back in place instead of blocking the spare room with seats and other crap. here's the truck with it's new colour on,


not looking to bad
i have also been busy with the winch bar and have finished that as well just have to give it a couple coats of paint chassis black should be good for that

Re: 1st-4th
Is it still the weekend???? For those of us still on holiday I guess it is...... kinda.....
Started getting the wagon ready for a little venture beginning Thursday and started by giving it the greasing, checking fluids etc, and then figured that I'd make some use oout of the remaining time off and build a little drop down benchy thing off my tailgate for times when away. Now i cant take credit for this idea, plenty of the guys with TJs have done this before me, just thought id jump on the bandwagon.
viewtopic.php?f=32&t=14545
Just a handy size for the single burner cooker and when available space in the TJs is at a premium, any extra doohicky comes in handy.
Now not strictly 4x4 related, but Myself, my wife, her little sister, my lad and his little buddy shot down to Rotovegas today and play on the Gondola, SkySwing and the luge..... at one part on the luge my lad and i were pacing with a zuk who was heading down the service road.... he nigh on wet himself when i hollered to me lad..... "Cmmon bud, lets take this dude"
Any hoo.......

I bet it's like the night before Christmas for you aye? Don't it make you feel like a kid again? Except this time you don't have that uncle that looks at you funny and makes you sit on his lap all the time

Re: 1st-4th
I looking forward to seeing your face as you get it dirty the first time. But not much as when you bury it in the mud up to the door handles and have to climb out the window to attach the strop, be like watching a dalmation dog trying to shit a beachball, lots of grunting, moaning, and farting, not pretty to watch but you can't tear your eyes away
