Howdy Everyone

Yes i'm still alive. Haven't been here in a loooong time. Hows everyone doing? Whats been up and stuff.


Dave

well as per ususal dave, i've been breaking things......

so i guess, nothing really has changed.

I've been spending abit of times with the body almost on the side.
Just imagine going down a 35 degree hill with 2 extremely deep ruts from years of errosion from people using the track.
Being silly i tried to straddle the ruts and u can imagine the front left wheel droping down the rut which is 2 feet deep.
That made my car tilt at a crazy angle and my rear right wheel lift 2 meteres from the ground.

Thankfully it was easily recovered even though there was 3 guys and 3 cars.... Thank god there were some good anchor points, Warn winch and a snatch block.

SADLY... As it was in such a terrible akward postion. I didnt get to take pictures of it.


Not that i'm boasting or what but i can say the position was far more akward than lowndsie's experiences. All i can say thank my lucky stars.

My situation was quite similiar to this but give it another 20 degrees more and my complete left fender was kissing the floor.

Moral of the story stick to the ruts when going down hill. Better to get stuck in deep ruts than ending up in an odd situation.

Sounds good. Good to see you've been having fun. I got a little un-stuck in some mud a little while ago and slid into a cement fence post and twisted my alloy bull bar and also did a little bit of fender damage. Bar is totalled but i'm getting another off of my mates bundeera and customising it to fit the Feroza! Here's a pic of my new rear bumper after the old one got torn off!

Dave.

So you been out 4wding much Dave? Looks like you've got some new wheels and tyres?

You'll have to come up with Jarrad next time we get some decent rain and visit that place I posted pics of.

What do ya think of my bumper? Do ya like/or do ya think it looks like shit. I was kinda going for the semi trailer look!

Dave!

It's a bit hard to tell what it looks like- the pics are a bit small. What are the lights off?

They're not off of anything. they're made by narva and they are in a lot of semi trailers. but mine are 12 volt obviously!
