TA DAAaa... Got to say that these wheel arch extension thingys are cheap misshapen crap. However, they do the job, and thats all I care about!

Do you do this for a living? If not, why not?? Give me a bell if you feel like you need to practise on a Patrol ;)

No, the roof isnt even leaking! :D

Turns out the fault code was "77 P7" which is something to do with air in the fuel system? So as usual in these situations something else breaks! The fuel primer pump thingy on top of the fuel filter was siezed up and not working, so (much to my horror and disgust) my NISSAN PATROL now has a...

Good news and bad news... Passed MOT with a wee bit of welding! YAY! :) Bad news, engine in limp mode possibly due to the fuel tank being taken off for the welding and possible air in the system? Booo! The garage have got an error code which points to that happening. Anyone else had this...

These ones... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2x-4-5t-Recovery-Tracks-Black-Sand-Mud-Snow-4x4-ramps-ladder-waffle-board-/172892769577?hash=item2841364d29 They are totally unused at the moment due to the paddle wheel tyres I've got!

Yes, I got the seals too..

The ones in the second link ^^. My tyres poke out a good two and a bit cm on either side. Its that tractor type tread that gives them away, plus the extensions will stop a lot of mud spraying up the side of the truck!

I could do with that myself!

Me too! :)

They're all to expensive though. Looks like the old Goretex bivvi bag will do!

Just wondering, has anyone had experience of those aerodynamic roof boxes before? I'm wondering if I could convert one of these into a roof top tent for a fraction of the price of a normal roof top tent!

ROFL!!

Well I did have to winch from three different points - although its not easy to see in the crap cam - I started off by disengaging the clutch, but then binned it and just walked out spooling out all the way. The mud was too slippery to mess about. I didn't bother with any straps - nylon rope and...

Boink!

That thing on the bonnet is just a cheapo bonnet protector thingy which I got off fleabay last year.. I think it came from Poland.

Waiting for mud.. I'm going to give the inside a dig out in a few days, expect more piccies next week.

I've been playing, but only an inch or so of snow here so far.. I hope its at least a foot thick by tomorrow morning!
