    What did you break today on your troll

    Well I did the right thing and went out with clunk to try out his newly purchased gq, I Had been greeting a bit of a bang in the hubs occasionally when in 4wd and turning, well today it let go a bang and then there was a whirling sound it think it's something to do with the locking hubs. My hope is it's something simple like the hub spline and not the axle spline. I'm share there will be plenty of others with a story to tell.

    I was dune bashing, when there was an almighty bang from underneath, sounded like the front end somewhere.
    Stopped to have a look (a bit later) and couldn't see anything amiss apart from a suspicious looking drag-link. On close inspection it was fine.
    Someone called my up later to say that something was hanging off the back. Rear stabiliser link had sheared off - driver side - that's passenger side for you lot

    Just used a couple of cable ties to hold it up out of the way for now.
