Hi Brian
Did your Patrol come with that bonnet badge?
It looks really good, and getting to the point......I'd like one!:thumb2

 

[britrb]

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.

 

[Davey Boy]

Actually Bri, I was so drawn to the Patrol badge, I missed that it was on a bug shield!:thumb2

This pic looks like I'm in Mexico in an episode of Breaking Bad because of the yellow light!

The green button is for the front fogs. Only a couple of quid from Maplin. I'll be getting similar buttons and switches for more lights etc. later.

Enjoy

Boink!

Ahhh, watch the mud fly

Did you find it easy?, first few times I winched I must of walked 20 miles to and from my truck because I kept having to go back for straps etc. or the engage/disengage the winch clutch, I like to think I'm more organised now :lol

Cream of the crop workmanship sir :thumb2

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 couldn't be arsed! The main thing is I didn't have to use my cheapo maxtrax and get them all covered in mud!

I suppose I could have worked my way out without any winching, but I wanted a play.

 

[solarman216]

Playing is what it is all about, and the more you practice the better you will get, Rick

Yeh I found that when tugging the rope in the mud freespooling, it would suddenly get stiff then I'd slip and end up on me RS :lol
