We were in Perth today, 4hs drive from home, and the battery light came on (in the Commodore). Being the mechanic that I am (lol), I thought it was the battery, because it's a bit old, but it turns out to be the alternator being stuffed.

ABS and battery light came on, no speedo, tacho or fuel gauge, then they would come back on, then off, then on again.

Anyway, about 3hrs later and over $500 later, I was back on the road. I didn't have time to look around
etc, etc, etc. The repair shop did the right thing and rang around and got me a good price.

Sorry guys, but I don't have the coin to attend. Spewing :mad::mad:

Rossco

you're just worried about having to leave the black top aren't ya Rossco!!!!!???????

You blokes are so cruel, but I still loves ya! PML

Seriously (lol), I was looking forward to getting mud on my tyres. lol. I was going to swag it, and if we had been there for a week, I would have set up my full monty - the envy of many of you.

"Never say die," Winnie. lol

Another 'serious' statement (lol), distances in WA are huge, we all do our best. Many of us are shift workers and we reeeeeely do our best.

As Midge would say,......'love to all'.

g'day guys...
i might try and give it a go next weekend aswell..... my patrol got written off a few weeks ago so i wasnt sure if i would have a new one by now and enough mods to get me by..... but guess what i have a new one(well a 2011...gu7) and i have managed to get a few mods done(still 2 weeks till the diff lockers go in but i will just have to suffer without lol). We are actually going to dwellingup tomorrow night with the camper trailer and if i can get out of work next weekend i may well be in on this one(Ruth cant as she is busy so i will be flying solo).
is it going to be hard core 4 wheeling or just a chill out as i havent put good tyres on yet (although the lift kit is done) because i was wanting to hold off for as long as possible so i dont have to buy another set before simpson.

OK, just follow these directions:

1. Leave the pub and head to the main street
2. Turn left at the main street
3. Follow the road until you see a sign
4. Turn right at the sign and follow the road until it turns to gravel
5. Keep going on the gravel road until you see THE TREE, it has faded yellow tape around it
6. Turn right at the TREE and follow the track until you see me.......

I hope that theses directions are easy to follow, if not just let me know.

Yours in mapping,
Doggy

Been thinking, again.
Maybe it is a better idea that instead of going on Friday by myself that I come down and meet everyone at the Pub on Saturday.

Comments anyone?
