Yeah I worked as well, did skirting and scotia and alcatraves in a sleepout with bathroom and wardrobe.

Tomorrow I will have a play with the Link ECU in my Hilux, have got the PC interface module now so can have a look at it.

Na, just think of it this way, for every bit you can't remember where it goes, think of the weight you'll save.

That's what i reckon too! Or it obviously doesn't actually need the parts that i have left over...

Tried to figure out why my rear wiper doesn't work. Still no idea. No power - to wiper, plug, switch, or fuse box. Weird.
Put some heat sheilding under the intercooler. Now just need a bonnet scoop, dam things are so hard to come across at a reasonable price.
Toyota want $470 for a hilux one, $250 trade. And can't find much on trade me that'll suit.

Try going to a wreckers to get one of those big flat bighorn ones. I think the last one we picked up for a race car was $60.

Shell managed to break her front diff (on her Zuk) as well as her hand......her first worry.....get the Zuk fixed first.....the hand can wait.....and I got threatened with being beaten up whilst putting on the plasters if it hurt...oh well at least there were more left for me after her hand was sorted :lol:

that little Zuk kicks ass....you lot are in big trouble.....

We told Cloggy that we would break his front diff and his hand to give Shell a fair advantage at the CCVC club champs.....

Anybody and everybody beat me in the club champs today, after losing my score card on the speed section :(
Gutted.....
Never mind, I had a great time. Very impressed with being able to give the Land Rover some curry without having to worry about blowing the diffs.
Now I have to figure out how to make it four wheel steer to get around some of those incredible tight turns even the Suzuki's had trouble with.

Ahhhh, spur of the moment night missions up Thompsons.......

Haven't done one of those in years :shock:

Now theres and idea for a trip :twisted: :twisted:

Changed the Gearbox, T.Case, Rear Diff and Engine Oil, cleaned the Uni-Filter air cleaner and gave the paint work a quick buff. Also had a look at the rear drive shaft to check how the new UJ's where holding up. The rear UJ was seized :evil:

What else??

Found another broken bracket on the exhaust system, and had a look at the vacum assist system on the clutch which has become very tempremental. Better get those sorted before i head down south :lol:
