you 2 have had a bad influence on mick, i stopped in the other arvo and he has cut the front end so it looks like Bartso's. (mini indicators!!)

He has got the material for the front hubs so we will cut them this weekend and machine them, any chance you can send up some hubs as the od seems to vary quite a lot and we want a good fit on each set. Also you will need the 'small' wheelnuts (the short open style ones).

Take plenty of pics! This comp sounds awesome, wish I could get there to see it...

organisers, is there any chance (pending popularity) that this comp could become a more than an annual event? IE 2 or 3 rounds a year?

Theres going to be three rounds this year.

She is definitely not afraid to sit on the rev limiter.

Thanks to the organisers and competitors, we could see everything from the one spot.

It was good to see the drivers going hard on a climb even though they knew they were going to roll over.

Has this broken both rear shocks and both tailshafts??

Looks like it was a great event.

Were you sleepy again Bartso or are you just giving Ryano a work out again.

Broken front shaft and Uni, broken lhr axle....

Shocks looked ok....

Joined: 20 Oct 2002 Location: Greenbank

The other pic looked like the rear axle was drooped untill the Aframe fouled the pinion.

We still had/ have a few steering issues which got us wedged into the rocks fairly tight. I asked Bartso to give it a little bit of loud to try and get it to come around to a clearer spot to steer. The Rear axle went bang. Very Happy

So in my infinite wisdom, I said to try again in 3 wheel drive. At this point the Front uni/shaft went bang. (wasn't hitting on anything and the tyres were turning reasonably freely) Very Happy

So we tied it up and then pulled the winch out, Popped it up over the rock (single wheel drive, still no steer at this point) and it pivoted down and dropped into the hole nose first. It sat there for a bit and slowly the vehicle commenced its journey to the final resting spot.
It ended up leaving the park with no drive at all. Rear centre is a bit unhealthy now. Crying or Very sad

Few more weeks in the shed will fix it. armsup

Cheers,
Ryano

Awsum work in the zook! You guys did well. There were some pretty big holes to loose it in.
I reckon Tamara drove the Patrol a lot smoother and better than Mick. The Finger

we had some hairy moments in the zook....a couple of times we were sure we were going over but steves quick work on the accelerator pedal saved it!!! i tried to get as many photos of everyone else as i could.......but i was pretty stuffed after some of those stages (like trying to pull the zook out of the waterhole backwards) but all up i think it was a great weekend!!! and looking forward to doing it all again sometime!!
