Managed to replace the front two speakers in my truck as they were shagged, now have to do the back two, which is a bit more involved than the front one's.

Bit late but started the bighorn over the weekend and took it for a little drive before it got parked up again

Had to fix the wheel bearing on the wife's XR6 and found out you have to replace the entire hub and its around $270ish lucky for trade $150. Found the cause of the noisy bearing the casing cracked and got water and crap in took 3 hours to take off as the casing snapped and siezd onto the stub axle but mr grinder came in handy after tyring everything else.

Hmmm, "started the bighorn"? do you mean the lift? ( was it something I said the other day about helping out that's got you motivated?

had a bunch of wood sitting round that was far too long for my teeny fire............





so I borrowed an OSH approved table saw from my bosses mate and set about trimming it into smaller bits for the teeny fire...............




and whilst I was cutting my lovely partner was busy stacking it...........

haha nah Al not the lift. Literally started it up (been sitting since the move). I thought I would have a flat battery to deal with but it was all good. well kinda it does a backfire sound out the intake which I would have a clue what is causing that.
