Nick - when am I likely to be able to get the headliner. Also need the plastic bit that the sun visors fold up to I think.

I think we're about most of next weekend so maybe first thing Saturday morning if your about.
I'll check with rach when she gets back from work and confirm later.

Never know, you might have it ready for Wales ;)

It is pretty much ready to go. The only issue is I can't insure it until Feb.
 
Ok so this week is Wales trip prep (can't wait buy the way)

Fit wading kit
Fit poly radius arm bushes
Weld a small plate on the outrigger
General check over
And a service

They ain't going nowhere (once I've brought a padlock) = no stupid amounts of mud in truck!
 
What a great day we had yesterday.

Not a high lane count, but those we did were great fun.

We did Violets, where Mikey had to pull Copping all the way through and we had to tow a Suzuki all the way through.

Judging by how deep it all was we missed out on a few other good fords, like standon and Terling.

I didn't get many pictures but here is one.

You can see copping in front of us standing on his roof. :(

That looks fun, a lot deeper than last few times I have been there! Isn't this the second time chris has been standing on his roof waiting to be towed out now?

I know the feeling, I still got a long list to do, doubt it will all get done but here's hoping! Wales will be good I'm hoping, lots of mud by the looks of this rain!

Nick, when do you want to balance your tyres? I am gonna be staying late a few nights but am flexible to which ones so an evening your free will be fine with me...

Cheers Jon, that would be great. Will check when I'm without the little ones and let you know this evening.

The Wales weekend seems to have crept up all of a sudden!

Just made my list :eek:
Fit the snorkel.
Breathers.
Front diff guard.
Jate rings.
Sort a spare out (anyone got a 265/75/16)
Fit the CB
Check the levels and then I'm good to go.
I'm not going to bother with a diff guard for the back, hoping the Salisbury axle will be OK.
 
You decide what you want and where , regret buying the mud dash should have gone with the raptor. How did you get on with the wheels?

Lol want the Raptor just don't know which one plus the cb I want is 155 mm wide and 5mm high but they don't seem to do that sized hole.

I pm'd the guy asking a couple of questions but haven't had a response, I'll try sending him another one.
 
5mm high? What is it credit card size? Lol also you'll have to get a marine PA not you're average PA as it'll last all of 5mins
 
Apologies for being out of the blue with this, but is there anyone in the CM6 area with a decent 4x4 possibly with a winch? I did a little reccy down Peppers Green and managed to get stuck. I need some help please to pull me out. Preferably tonight 23/10. If there's anyone local that is feeling generous and fancies laughing at me for being a plonker, please get in touch. Thanks in advance Simon 07850 661 446.

Sorry mate mines up on axle stands awaiting uj,s.
First rule of laning, Don't go out alone.
You do realise the flack we,re gonna get now.
 
Watch ya go and get stuck on night when the missis is out.
If you not recovered by the time she gets back I might be able to help (circa 10ish)

I havent fitted my winch or jate rings to the new Landy yet.
How badly are you stuck?
Grounded out?
Deep water?
mechanical breakdown?
How far down the lane?
Do you have recovery points?
