A little late but oh well. Got stuck working Saturday, but today I thought it was about time to have a look at the front diff head that I broke at Manukau WC back in October
Think this may have been the problem
Also sanded the under side of the Hilux ready to be under sealed.

Its been a while but I managed to finally get out for a play in the mud. Also convinced a mate with a stock terrano to follow me Got him stuck multiple times and got him some slight tree damage ( It'll buff out, honest ). Then found an interesting Hilux in need of recovering, who decided to tag along for a bit.

Yet another weekend with no mud.. Tricky with no rear drive shaft fitted any how.
That hilux in hamboy's video looks a bit like this one but with more exo cage. Can't be that many around Blenheim?
Yeah that's the one Matt, he's going to aussie next month so he wants it gone. Its a nice machine

Fixed up some of the door seals on Te Rino and gave her a polish. Didn't scrub up half bad considering the amount of Pureora bush It's been friendly with. All ready for next weekend's playdate!

Got half way through the body lift on my Hilux and realised I only had 6 blocks? DOH. So left it in the workshop in pieces. Will finish it this weekend. Also my UHF radio arrived at my mates place so should have that this week. Almost ready for mud.
