Destroyed my front right CV boot (and most likely CV) and I think I've killed my Brake Master Cylinder

On a positive note though, I added to my truck's mud sunscreen... wouldn't want the paint to fade now, would I?

sorry had to fix it. See it all the time on TM and it bugs me, along with disk. The correct spelling is DISC BRAKE.

anyhow, my weekend involved work yesterday and club fun day today where I get to drive the supercharged lexus hilux/safari, it should be fun.

I didn't take any but hopefully someone did

i think i spotted dixies jeep in the carpark was tempted to leave a messge for him but decided not to
then headed home and had another go at the spring perches cut them off got them all ready for wopas to weld the replacements in he did that this evening thanks again dude

that there is pretty much all ive managed to do all weekend... mowed the paddock today and thats about it

very sneaky with the camera there Merc...my welds should look ok after a good thick coat of paint

and it was XJ that drives the Jeep... dix has way better taste than that

Mercutio, i was in bunnings art about 9 sat morn. Dixie isnt worthy enough to even sit in a Jeep.

Thats ok wopass, next time you need a belt, or a fork to lift an engine, or a trip to tepoi.... just call me..... i got a long memory.....

Sotch guarded the soft top yesterday.

was amping to head back out to tepoi (with dixie and wopass) to map some points on the dudes boundarys to go playing in the bush, sussing out campsites etc but couldnt get in touch with the landowner.....

so... splashed out on some Hippo liner and did the inside of the Jeep...

Next saturday the plans are......... Some 33x12.5x15 MT/R's go on, was going to fit a snork too, but not at $714.00 i aint!!! And will propably head to bunnings and buy a little weekender/camper trailer.

might need a grader on the front lawn to get rid of all the crap now

Just like Sadam I washed the jeep after the recent trip to Rallywoods. Removed the transfer case skid and the two 10 litre buckets of clay that was jammed up around there, so I can now announce that any vehicle with 30" tyres can drive quite a few parts of rallywoods. I graded all the tracks for you

just to get all filled up again at terawhiti in 2 weeks time

Bring it on, I've got a waiting list of people who want to join me to see just how I manage to get the jeep so dirty each time I have headed out to Terawhiti, and Rallywoods.

The Terawhiti mud was easier to remove from under the jeep, but I did end up with a better covering all over the jeep

The 9nd is in the diary

I crusied the Wrangler up there on AT's, its all rock underneath aye, no biggie really. (main track that is of course)

Where is it your stuck in that pic, the dirt (DIRT??) looks very dry and loose.... first play area?????

Started Dismantling the decks, & steps & stuff ready for the garage..... why oh why did they cement in the posts for the steps, when they didn't bother doing the same for the fence? Took me all day to dig out all the posts....

bald ATs at that , good sunday drive

I mowed my lawns, also found if I stop the mower I need to let it cool down enough to get enough compression to start it again

Hmm time for a engine swap i think, pity the lawn is so little and so many levels otherwise I would look at a PTO and Flail mower behind the toyota

As far as 4wding i went to the skifield does that count? Oh and yes i did end up with scratches on my board

Congrats Rex how long before you your new child trained as a winch rope runner?

Went playing on Sunday



managed to rip off the rear mud guard and smash up the rear bumper

all the more reason to finally make some removable mud guards and get the rear bar work happening

Boring weekend, three days in the Sounds catching large blue cod and buckets of scallops............. May think about bringing some to the next ORE trip......... ( that could be a tui ad )

theres a spare seat in my truck curly

I have seen the way you drive............. I hope it isn't under the tarp on the tray
Will pm you in the next day or two (if you have room for that trip). Just trying to get through 94 "new posts" on the site. After a hard weekend( )with a 4am wake-up call this morning, it is a struggle

With seafood: comfy front passenger seat

Without seafood: under tarp on the hard tray

went to our club play day in a cockies paddock on sunday.

Have new found respect for Scott, and now realise why he drives his truck everywhere fast. Please put power steering on Scott.



Mac's little suzuki was trying to fly.......



Pricey wasted no time in playing and 20 mins into the day he had rolled his Lexus V8 Surf, wheels to wheels(pics to follow).........



then we had to rescue Klem from the bog. His famous last words when I asked him if he had a strop. " I wont be needing a tow"



A great day was had and when I get some pics oof another guy, I will post, along with some awesome video footage of Klem powering his Lexus powered hilux thru the bog.
