[quote="Uhhohh"]As far as an indecent proposal goes, I'd accept nothing less than $100,000 to tolerate buggery. Any less and it's just not worth the psychological trauma. [/quote]

All sorts of stuff. We knew the truck wasn't well suited being a winch challenge truck but it was the best way to have a crack at the event to see what it was all about.unlimited 1 wrote:Ruffy, what kind of things are rooted on muppets truck.
Ultimately you'd build a truck from scratch. The OBC or Cliff hanger is not a patch on the stress the safari puts on a car.
Tyres, suspension, driveline and panels suffered the worst... Engine still pulls strong

Most of Darren's issues related to not listening to the navigator, road goes right over crest...
The car had very few problems, which is a great testament to how well it was prepared. We broke 2 engine mounts, one item we ran out of time to change before hand.
We used up a few sets of brake pads, need to carry more in the future.
The exhaust wasn't up to the job and needs slip joints and spring retainers to keep it together in the future, this was a problem as it was hard to hear the radio which may have contributed to the tap tap
The panels are looking a bit more stream lined, and overall the car is a few inches narrower than before, makes it easier to fit between the trees, of which there where allot. Some stages had a full tunnel effect in the trees with branches brushing both sides and occasionally the roof (look out Bob), we lost both side mirrors, and they where turned in at the time.
Wheel bearings needed adjustment every few days, which is to be expected.
The car held up really well, and was much faster than allot of the really fancy/expensive machines through the roughest stuff, I think the Outback experiences helped there.

Fun's an understatement... We all had a ball. Even the Man wrestling was enjoyable... until someone touched in the wrong places.. WayneBritswed wrote:Congrats Wayne & Darren must have been alot of fun guys
