Yeah, dragged the truck home last night - 6 hour recovery mission all up!
Thanks heaps to datsunsafari and mark.griffith - massively appreciate your time and effort!

Yeah, truck was about 1 km back from the sea with uphill soft sand in every direction. The fan had had a date with the radiator, and it didn't go well, so no chance of repair. We we got there, it was blowing 30+ knots, and raining (read: bloody horrible).

Two trucks in a row pulling seemed to do the trick (just), all rolling on baggy tyres. Then had fun times being towed all the way back to Takapuna on a 3 metre tow rope with crap brakes and crap steering, in the dark. While it was raining.
