    I do remember reading about your detonation issues.
    It is more often then not motors are blown up prematurely by a nice big hill on the road after be dynoed for peak power unloaded.
    Nahhh .... they were both good mate, but as you say, going for max berries on the machine is not always conducive to long engine life in the 'real' world!! They've resolved it though ... thankfully!!

    Yeah lucky you knew what was happening.
    A lot of people just keep on going until it's too late.

    Well today i finally got out for a good play in the mud.
    Damn dash cam recorded over the footage when a mate got stuck i turned the ignition off and when i turned it back on i didn't realise it was recording.
    Trying to recover it now and will take some pics tomorrow before washing it.
    The rear number plate got broken reversing through one spot in high range lol.
    Had to snatch a pathfinder out a few times but it done quite well considering it has single spinner diffs.

    The worst part about a good bush bash is washing the thing and i still have half the bush hanging off underneath.

    Finally got out in the mud again what a difference.
    I have since fitted 2 inch spring lift and body lift and some km2 35 inch tyres.
    The mud holes are quite easy now. the difference is unreal instead of getting completely stuck going nowhere i now have traction.
    Although their is one i got stuck in i still had movement back and forward just need a light snatch to get out of it has steep entry and exits that i just couldn't get up .
    Hoping that the front locker will help with that one.
