Essex lanes

Looks like my chassis.

one week after salisbury and my alternator is beggining to feel poorly (

jon, did stu get the mitsi?

that was ment to be a sad face..

Think my track rod end has just given up completely went for a drive and it has a heavy vibration at the front. Steering has a loud knock as well.

Just bought some Terrafirma HD bars on ebay for about half price

Took Tiny for a short drive to the barn for the first time in a while today. Battery was a bit low but apart from that fine. Spoke to DirtNewbie and his mate and hopefully pre-sold a few bits off her.
Anyone planning a Laning day or offroad day anytime in the next couple of weeks? Be nice to get the old girl out for one last drive before I kill it.

Just clean out the bushes, dirt gets under them, should be fine after that.

More to the point, you got a working CB yet?

Once I have fixed mine im going to be planning a days laning, want to try out MM properly now I have got the hang of it.... will post up on here when I know when but within the next few weeks I hope..

just cleaned out the bushes, they were grim. i think it may be past it. I will see how it goes for the next week.
666george, hows yours now?

i think the cb is now working. it was set to a foreign frequency and is now set to UK.
I left it on channel 19 and picked up voices, so fingers crossed.

Has anyone here got a C reg rangerover which is jacked up and has spots on the top of the bonnet? Spotted you in halfords carpark your motors HUGE!! Bet you dont have an issue going anywhere haha

Whilst digging through mountains of paperwork trying to find a couple of missing logbooks I stumbled across Tiny's MOT, runs out of the 12th of May. Glad I found that lol

Hi Guys, I'm new to the world of laning and am looking to tag along with some more experienced laners. I live near Dunmow and I've been out on my own a few times, but I keep being told I'm mad doing it alone, especially Violets Lane. ;-) So, if anyone fancies getting in touch, I'd really appreciate the invite.Thanks Si

Bugger !!!



Down to 2WD at the moment

Wooooops!

Tusken why not just replace the joint easy enough job in a vice?

Are the broken bits not part of the prop casing? Anyway got one cheap from a guy in our club so if this one is servicable i can sort it later and have it as a spare.

That should be repairable.

When you get a new UJ you will replace the center bit and the caps (the broken bit in that pic), all you retain is the prop and the flange (the solid chunky bits that never break).

But like you say, keep it as a spare that way its a quick swap next time as they always go...
