[petefj40]

If there's room? I'm keen.

[zookfest]

looks like im out of this one went to start truck on saturday and no go so tried to jumpstart it and got sparks coming off the handbrake lever when i tried cranking it,did a few things today and ended up cooking wires and had smoke coming from everywhere under the bonnet,and my other truck has collapsed rear wheel bearing,buggerd brakes blown pinion seal and rumbly front pinion bearing so im not going to bother as work is to busy and cash flow is dry so flexy will lead the trip,between him and a few other locals im sure it will still be a good trip

Did Rick find the rest of the bunch yeti?
He phoned me up at around 9 wondering where everyone was. Wish I could of helped.

[IcedJohnno]

Yep he found us having been directed the wrong way by Keith! As he came into view, he looked like he was on a mission. Warp speed. was told his Bro in law had white knuckles - his 1st 4wd trip.
Both Rick and I had to tow the two other jeeps out ...
We came out on Mt Thomas Rd nearly up at View Hill. Was fun route finding in the dark. Next time I must get there early enough to let my tyres down.

[yeti]

cause he did , he was in a jeep man....
