Had a quick trip out to Mt Adams to start some trail making. A mate went with me and as Rodger (owner) was not available to be a guide I did get a little turned around and ended up finding a shepards hut in an area I have not been to yet, long steep hill with a 80 deg left turn, so a bit tricky with the rain, rock and clay

[meece4x4]

club run for this weekend was postponed at the last minute, so since we were gassed up and ready to go we decided to go out to a friends farm and had a bit of a play,



Heres my mates well set up Bighorn, too bloody dry to tax the trucks but had so fun anyway bashing our way though the pines.






found a couple of nice steep hills to play on.


opps sorta got stuck a little curse you open diffs

[UBZ]

Completely striped , cleaned and re-built the front axle in the Zuk.
New 'er CV's , seals and grease.

[Taz]

Someone decided to mod my hilift so that it now lifts up, and to the left this weekend. I didn't even have to ask

Wanted: One aqua-size class to help me make it straight again.

[zukigirl]

My Genius removed the body from the rather bent chassis on my sj413 and is going to find a straight chassis to rebuild for me.So am now on the lookout for left hand front fender and bonnet.

[imnotstuck]

[lincooln]

got my brother's mini tuned and running right after being told by a "mini expert" that it would never get rid of the flat spot in the power, turned out it was just running way way to lean.

Managed to pry my zuk back off my dad and degreased everything in the engine bay and sorted plans for the front bumper/bar work that i need to do along with the snorkel and spot lights.
