    Starting to clean up well.

    If that is your workshop, you're Lucky Bugger, not GrumpyOldFart......

    I haven't had leaf springs for a while, but the new ones look lighter duty to me, and I hope that they will hold the weight OK for you when you load it up. You can always add another leaf easy enough if you need it though.

    We were managing Papulankutja (Blackstone) remote community store for a few years, but now do relieving for Store Managers and Community Advisors.
    If you can't find Blackstone in WA it is about 95km west of Surveyor Generals Corner (SA, WA, NT border intersection)

    If you saw Outback Truckers, I was the bearded bloke complaining about the ice cream!
