Well i was off to the barn to put the other front shock back on./ got side tracked (read: having a play) and rolled the truck on to its side in the middle of a good gravel track.. called the mrs to bring a light.. had it back on this wheels in under 5 minutes.. Turfur winch to a handy tree..

Nothing but net. now its tea time (6pm sat).. too dark to get fotos on fone unfortunatly.. will get damage pics in the morning.

some pics.. pretty crap so far. found the digi cam after i tipped it back on its feet. Gutted, real kodak moment gone begging.

rolled the junker out of the shed today and cleaned up a bit. Put all the tools up on the board, found all the parts I modified for the 8. Looked at the guards and decided pete doesnt need his new 35's and they would look much better on a LR (better chain em up)

Think I need to borrow a mig welder for the weekend

Took the beast our to see how far I could push the old 1800.
Went ok till the throtle jamed wide open
Fixed that and then made a cuppa with the water comming out of the overflow bottle.
Of the other three trucks I was with 1 blew his manual hubs and now understands why he needs the upgrade, another one boiled too and the other lost his clutch.
All in all lots of fun but need to find some more challenge here in Blenheim
At least the Toyotas drove home and the nissan needed help!
