Patch, the lead car on this trip is an 80 on 37s. Nothing broken on that one ;-)
The lead car just did an air locker line

A torn air line isn't quite the same as a complete cv AND the opposite axle. Thought these Nissan front ends are supposed to be tough.
We are all bloody limping now! Lol
I think the group is up to 10 beads off. A Uni, 2 winches, an axle, a CV, a winch rope, a few panels. Damn!

Sorry Brando I did not see your post before mate.
It is made from Nylon and I bought it from a plastic place (resiplex) then drilled it in the drill press with a spade core bit then a jig saw will get it done. I then used a bench router to put a radius on all the edges. Easy if you have the right gear.
The Nylon was not real cheap though to be honest and I probably on saved $50 over buying an alloy hawse fairlead which are an off the shelf item.

Brando I reckon the nylon is 25mm and it was a blank block
Here are a couple if pics taken while waiting for the 80 to sort out his air locker

You started it old mate..lol
Hang on a sec, remember when I finaly found my gq and I got home to start a post and suddenly mr started one on my behalf...
Dog of a bloke..lol
Must be some seriously hard tracks if Darren had you out running his winch cable all weekend, lucky you left the Tojo at home. Sounds like even with a winch cable on the Tojo the Tojo wouldn't of made it home.Quote:

Double Tap
Just got out of the bush in Paddy's swamp where we did some winching and some hill climbs and flicked a heap of mud

Yeah I have to admit I did have a chuckle rolling out. For $40 they can shovel it up and put it in the dump master.
Damn now it's clean there is a few nasty battle scares now.
PHoTOS!!!!!!!???????Quote:

Love it!
Actually looking to change the suspension ! Going to rip out the dobenson springs and suspension stuff shocks in favour of a the new Amada Extremes and Tough Dog coils I think!
Heading out for a night run tomorrow night to Wombat for a hard run up some hills!!
Great job mate, ever think of laminating front diff or changing to GU.
Yeah if i keep breaking the CVs i will have to think about going the GU front end. I'd do that rather than going Cals Chromoly CVs and bracing the GQ stuff as the GU run bigger stronger diffs, bigger axles, Bigger Brakes (Twin Pots and bigger disks ;) ) and stronger CVs so this would be my preferred. My front Airlocker would bolt straight in with the 4.6 ratios out of the GQ too! Winner for sure. People still want silly money for the GU front diff though!! Would be keen to grab a pair of GU diffs for the best set up though. It will increase the wheel track too. going price is over $2000 for a pair of GU diffs though!!! WOW!Quote:
