Didn't get time to put my old gearbox back in today which means I have no diff lock and it keeps jumping out of gear when in low range.

Might not need it providing it doesn't rain. White and yellow courses should be ok!

Nah just sorting out crap at work that had nothing to do with me as usual.
Don't know if it's worth taking the truck out until I've sorted the box. Be just my luck I blow it up and have to get a RAC lift home.
What wheels you get in the end Dan?

Right! The new springs and shocks are on. Sitting much(!) higher
Road test will hopefully be this afternoon. Just waiting for some paint to dry on the new spring retaining brackets I made up for the rear. I'll get them clamped on, wheels on and then take it for a spin.

Nice choice Dan, would like to see these and compare them to my wheels. See what the offset is like.

Okay.... Went and picked some children up from school. Involving the A14. Got up to a decent speed and all seems well
Only slight niggle would be a little rumble at 15mph. Nothing else though
Got some new UJ's and rubber bits to go on one day but I think all is well for a change
Now to start the welding :doh:

You can bring someone. Just make sure THEY SIGN ON IN THE SHED! It's for insurance purposes

Thanks dude!!
Do you know what times the driving day is on - looked on the SLROC site, but couldn't see any start and finish times? - I have to get my passenger back to Melford for 3pm, so would probably turn up as early as I can.
