I will see what its like next month but I will probably get chains here in Preston as I think it will be a touch cheaper and easier to drop off when I get back...
I have not put chains on in nearly 20 years and back then we had to fit them to a small truck... was not fun!!
It's a c*^t of a job at the best of times. On a 33' wheel just adds that bit of extra enjoyment!Quote:

He did one tyre at a time, spread the chains out flat on the ground, put a little block of wood in the centre so when he drove forward he knew when to stop then lifted the chains up around the wheel. Is this the normal technique or a clever trick?
Think I saw that too, nah cheap trick mate. Would work good though.Quote:

Chains ???? Wont the muddies be enough ??
If the going get really heavy and deep snow then a set of chain will make a massive difference mate. Chains on bitumen work to brake black ice but chains in deep snow give your tyres paddles to move you through the snow if its deep.Quote:

Your call mate, I will have Pedes on and can't get chain big enough so I will wing it. If the going gets tough then the biggest go up the front and th weakest tyre goes to the backache and everyone should get through. You have brand new km2s so you will do ok mate. But if the snow is deep you will see the limits of your tyre. Will be awesome.
So basically what Darren is saying the gq's go at the front and the gu's to the rear or stay back at camp and keep the fire going until the big boys come home...lmao
So I think it's Roofy, me and George who'll be coming up on the Saturday. What time does everyone recon they'll get there?
I'd like to meet up with the rest of the crew somewhere around lunchtime so we can get a decent afternoon drive in.
Tip tip tip......tap tap tap....
Sweet as, theres a few words that are resonating between my ears lol slicks, limits and awesome :)Quote:

Limits, i like finding them to set the bar higher for the next time and to see what needs to be done to overcome them
Awesome, HELL YEAH!!
Oh really mate, we'll just see about that lolQuote:

I will have Friday off also ... I have no idea where we are going?
Google is my friend..
Well I finish work at 7am fri morn in port melb and was tossing up going straight from there to the meet as I did not want to be driving up the hill on those twisty roads coming into dusk as I have never been up that way if I went home I would be waisting 2 hrs going back and forth.
