But in all seriousness, I'm still waiting on steering stuff, unless that goes on I aint coming because it's hard enough keeping it on tarmac at the moment never mind rocky green lanes. There is so much play in the centre steering bar ball joints that the steering wheel is at the 10 oclock position when driving in a straight line :(

And then once that is done I have to get tyres on!!!!

That's a bit of a bummer mate, hope you get it sorted in time :thumb2

Ok it's not long now, Thinking about organising a pub meal for the friday nearby. It's pretty good food and not that expensive. Will need numbers of people who want to eat.

Just a quick heads up with regards to people staying in the bothy, There's a small chance that walkers or cyclists will be there and they will take priority over us so bring tents in case we have to stay elsewhere.

Molly and I will be landing at the campsite Friday afternoon so will definitely need feeding and we're tenting so will have it with us wether we're staying at the bothy or back to the campsite. :thumb2
 
It's getting close now Zac, are you prepared for him this time??, have you bought some steel undies??, I'll slip some bromide in his drink.....'cos watch out, Blocky's about :lol

Can't you lot remember? It was a dance off and Zac admitted defeat and turned his back. I was cutting moves, throwing my thang down:lol

No problem. We're planning to leave at 9am Friday. No idea how long it will take. Times can be adjusted to suit. :clap

Expecting my steering stuff next week as soon as my pitman arms have been upgraded but not sure yet, it's still very much 50/50, tyres still need to be replaced up front, tracking done and spare thrown on :nenau

Cash isn't an issue anymore, I've been busy :naughty It's just time :doh

Nice one Rick. Is that the same motor you used at the Wiltshire meet?
 
What you been up to mate?

Just general stuff, checking diff, gearbox and transfer box oils and greasing props. Also jacked up front end and checked for play in the bearings (and had a play about locking the hub and making the Lokka ratchet :lol).

Tow bar flange off and hi-lift strapped in the back, she's good to go :thumb2

Appreciate you've got a bit more to do :augie ...
 
bansheeeeeeeeeeeeees cash problem is sorted bu this site shows how we are willing to help if needed.:thumb2
