And Mike remember that some of the things we did on your truck were a bodge to get it to the start (and finish) line :? so they'll need sorting properly when someones got more time. I've heard Turoa and Mroffroader are fairly good with Rovers :wink: :lol: :lol:



The thing about welding is its semi kinda permanent :lol: if it aint broke dont fix it.

Mike

Yeah was a awesome day and good to meet up with so many people. Have to take my hat off to Mike, Chopper and jase for getting the Landy going, alot of hard work and beer went into it. I too would have liked to seen a vid of kaney rolling but even better would have been the vid of him setting fire to it in the driveway :lol: No damage to it just a couple of empty fire extinguishers

Looks like the mud plug was enjoyed by many. Probably more people than those who sent just the 58 comments (from all over NZ) to DOC about the Canterbury CMS and how people might be able to access and enjoy the DOC land in the Canterbury conservancy.

Check the DOC note at www.nzfwda.org.nz

The rules they set in the CMS, apply for the next 10 years at least!

I found out this week that my diff locker switches were wired up around the wrong way. It happened after the little ARB air compressor was biffed in order to use the on board air supply. :lol:
I wondered why the steering was tight most of the time. :roll:
