All finished now. Just got to add flares this morning

That rear bar is something else...if I hadn't had mine refabbed last year then I would seriously be booking it in for one!

Cheers guys

I still have this custom gearbox x member to suit a KZN130 auto Surf if anyone wants it. $348+gst or I could be keen to swap it for a UHF radio and ariel (vehicle mounted) or any other goodies that might take my interest

Flares

3mm,5mm and 6mm. Depending on what is going to get the most hammering

Damm! you canty boys must be soft.... I use 10mm and they still bend em Pushing 3ton forklifts, trying to push willow trees over, logging old pine trees, etc

Petes 80 Series rear bar. Chopped off the rear factory x member. Made new mounts blah blah blah

Thank you Pm'd

I'm very happy with the end result thanks Tom. Just the front bar to go next year then it's done.
As far as price goes? I could of saved myself a few bucks if I removed the original rear bumper and tow bar before giving it to Tom. He also had to make me up a new removable tung for the tow bar as the original one was to short.
When you consider Tom had to do that as well as design something from scratch or a picture? I think the price I paid was very fair.
Looking forward to doing more business with you next year fella.
Cheers.
Pete.

I'm sure you knew that Bill.
Cert=$400+ bucks later. I'll wait till the front bar is done before I get Cert.
Damn, wof runs out at the end of the year.

I kinda did, but the rules change... I've had 3 certs and each time the rules have been slightly different.

Heard a rummor that the only remaining certifier in Chch is not accepting any more 4wd work. Not sure how accurate this is, but if true then that should fark some of us up. Timaru is next closest place to get your rig sorted.
What qualification's do you require for this certifiers gig? It can't be rocket science can it?

isnt there a dude down south who has come up and doing it aw well atm????????

Wayne Martin. You are missed.

Havn't personally had to cert anything since Wayne left the scene, have sent a couple of trucks his way tho. I had to write a producers statement for one of them but otherwise all good.
