... and this is why I have a towing jaw!

Foxy was playing tractor at the shearing last night as the Nashy is all set up for muck shifting at the moment with a large concrete counterweight on the back... needless to say the Troll didn't feel a thing, shifted it on tickover without a grumble

approx 60 whole fleeces... would make a comfy and cosy (if slightly smelly) bed!

I can cope with smelly. can you take me a load to woodlands.
I don't fancy an air bed

is that the truck your going in?

Sure is

She's only standard but as a Troll that still means she sits on 31" ATs, with front and rear live axles, a disconnecting rear anti roll bar and rear diff lock

... so I'm hoping the only weak link will be the twit behind the wheel... although with the long wheelbase I will have to watch my crossovers!

Will prob unbolt the towbar flange as well since it's only a couple m12 bolts and I've got a torque wrench in the toollbox for re-attaching it - it should give me a better departure angle.

awesome!! I bet Nissan NEVER considered this as a possibility for the use of their Patrol range when they designed it!

close-up of the jaw (couldn't resist

)

Wasn't towing far or on the road so didn't bother putting the clip in (the autolock holds the pin in anyway)

i'm sure you could make some nice wolly seat covers for your patrol
