    So got the brakes probably half bed in, pretty happy so far can't quite lock up the 35's but I will give it a run to work tomorrow and see how it goes. Stops twice as quick as previously though!

    Also put the winch to work pulling out some stumps from my mates backyard.

    What a beast. Showed the video to few guys at work, and they awed at the sound of that V8!

    Haha thanks guys, the old holden is in need of some TLC now though, not idling properly and a bit down on power will pull the plugs and check out the fuel pressure and try see what's what.

    Some more plagiarized pictures:

    Just got back from a few days up in the high country, didn't grab many pics but Crate went awesome! Wish I did the brakes and 4.6 diff ratios earlier, they have made a world of difference.

    First couple of nights we stayed at O'tooles near the Thompson, then onto Licola via Chaynne Bridge and stayed at barkly river for a night. Then we took the Licola-Jamison road right through to Jamison and onto the Pines where we caught up with some friends camping right on Eildon there, great trip got to get out to the High Country heaps more next year!
