I distinctly seem to recall saying on the radio that from what you described, it would be either the crownwheel or pinion, but of course I don't know what I'm talking about, so just shut up when you's carried on about side gears! :roll:

I certainly hope that that big fulla is putting that strop on some rated tow hooks there Jerry.............................

I would hate to think that the self imposed chairman of the tow hook policing committee was attaching that dirt sifter truck to his wagon without the proper tow hooks being used :x :x :x

What a great weekend!! Thanks to the Palmy boys for showing us around, even if you turned up late and we had to entertain ourselves for a while... and thanks for Saturday!! We had a ball of a time... palmy boys didn't even show up!

Sunday was a great day... Started like this.... got up, talked shyt, packed up camp, had breakfast then hit the road to meet up with Euan who was taking us to the dams behind Shannon, said we can winch up the dam at the end...

Anyways, when I was waiting for Euan to show his ugly mut uumm turn up in his uglytruck I found these guys... I don't know who they are but I have photo evidence of them trying to break into the ARB shop in Palmy Nth....

Also got a photo of who I think there instigator snapping them for their own photo album ...
Image

Then this guy turned up, the expression on his face is priceless!
Image
Anyways, it was a great weekend and I would like to thank everyone for the time that was spent over the long weekend!

The rest of the photo's are here all in random order thanks to Photobucket!

PS:Thanks to Jaffa as well for helping me out with the truck body mount issue... Jaffa's plug
