Returning Noob!

Post by Lincoln »

Hey all,

Linc here. I was last on these forums just over a year ago. Back then I'd just bought a Hilux and needed a lot of help so was on here a fair bit.

Still got the Hilux and I'm trying to get back into 4WD stuff after a mate suggested a trip to Clarence near Kaikoura this year.

So I'm back!

Hope to catch up with you all,

Linc

P.S. I'm the guy who designed the banner at the top of this website :)

Nope. Most mods it has are rubber floor mats and a new stereo! I'd love to do more but don't have the funds. It's been spent more on replacing the cylinder head, the glow plugs, the cambelt and one side of the rear bumper when a tire blew out at 100kmph

When a tyre bloke tells you that you have fine cracks in the rubber and water will leak in and rust the steel belt ... they ain't kidding!
