Night runs are good up there, brings on a whole new perspective.
This'll be the 4th night run for me and I must say, actually prefer it

Night runs are good as there are few others up there to get in the way :) we will probably camp at the little clearing where we had dinner last time, I think if we meet about 1600 at KFC Mundaring and leave around 1630, when we get to the camp site we can have dinner etc, I will bring some wood for a fire for those who will be staying, that will be me and clunk at least and anyone else who wants to. There will be the opportunity to turn off and leave for those that don't want to overnight. If anyone wants to add anything let us know :)

Well after the bar taking several softer hits on a few other occasions, my luck finally ran out and came down on the bull bar a little harder.

Bar pushed the wing up
29970

29971

Now buckled and twisted
29972

29973

Also push it about an inch or so over to the passenger side
29974
29975

Yay me, now on the hunt for a steel winch bar, so if anyone knows of one going in WA let me know. :D

Will keep an ear / eye for you Clunk.

Thursday is new Tie Rods day after rummaging around under the rig on Monday after I got home and found the Clunk hiding under it. Tie Rods I could move very loosley with my pinky. Hopefully they should fix the wobbles as well
