cheers that was just some very good work by a mate with his camera

On road they can be pretty noisy but off road they have just performed so well. I have only been stuck once on them
in that pic it looked solid till i cracked through and sunk ended up just having slop under the tyres ended up on the diff

bull bar and winch finally arrived and fitted today i was pretty excited.
got used the winch about 3 times with no load to make sure it all worked fine then the control box shorted out
now it just keeps pulling im fair shattered and hoping iron man can help me out on this and supply a new box or even if my auto elec can get me the right part cheap and quick to fix it because i have some awesome hills and bog holes to tackle that a winch is required to make it

cheers shes getting there mate and i love the shots as well got a great camera guy he isnt scared to get in close for a good shot, the abuse on the other hand its not to bad im always under it repairing what gets broken or bent making it stronger then it was.
that was her first time out 4x4ing she wanted to get scared and i think i did a great job of that lol.
heres a few more pics my mate sent me the other day think he could start doin this for a living that first photo was no zoom he really got in that close on a hill climb
