fitted some super winch hubs to the saf,also had a look at my cooling system as some times the old girl gets a bit warm up long hills,took air con rad out and behind it must of been half the Ashley and Waimak mud everywhere,flushed the whole system out all good now, so ended up leaving air con rad out so got heaps more air flow now and its going to be easy to hose rad down after mud trips :D

Friday: went to scrutineering for trials to steal ideas. Met a couple of the ORE guys. And I stole ideas.

Saturday: went to the trials, got some vids and pics (will post up), saw skid crash into a ditch :lol: :lol: , and had some fun watching the trials guys try and drive their road trucks and trailers out of the pits.

Sunday: mucked around, went for a drive and thought about working on the LR.
