All this is sort of my fault as I was following the tracker from our last trip there and couldn't tel if we turned left or right. And I chose right. Track was easy till the end. Sorry didn't want it to end that way.

I did my best to make it an easy day.

Mego, thank you very much for stepping up and taking the lead after BA's misfortune. I don't feel I was lead up the garden path, so to speak. And hey one wrong turn, that's a bloody good effort. You where only only 50% wrong. Lol. I had a awesome day and look forward to the next one.

Not the best example but you can see how close an 80 got to getting out.

Good comparo mate. ON our last Tallarook outing in April, there was not even water in it. Everyone waltzed through it.
I remember that bloke driving the 80, from Wombat run??? He was in a red GQ from memory.

Yes you are right man, he is lucky enough to own both of them, also one of the best blokes I have met.

And here is BA going down that first Jenkins rock steps, look at it compared to few weekends ago, now it's much steeper and sharper. absolute tire shredder the way it is now.

Big difference hey!
Cars now booked it at JPC on the 6th for a noo clutch. Clutch has started to come good, or better, but the thrust bearing is noisy as hell and i dont want to take the chance of it letting go whilst towing the camper. I contemplated doing it on the garage floor again but it needs too many hands to do it plus I will have time to get more work done before we go away on the 12th.

All this talk back and forth - ha ha.

I want to go back and have a "not" novice day. Then we can drive wherever and get lost or stuck or winch, etc and have a ball. No issues.

More than happy to follow where you're leading Mego! It was a great day.

Here are the vids.

Thanks Kevin, it's nice to see a bit of your own truck. It's funny to watch the Jack and contrast it to all the Patrols. Your video is up nice and close when I did that jump sideways. You can see it is wound up too much and there is basically no down travel in the suspension. All the time it wants to lift a front wheel. Can see why Mego was laughing about it on the day. The locker will help compensate a bit when it goes in. After watching that I'm gonna wind it down a bit to make a compromise between clearance and travel, not that it will make much difference. Compare that to the patrols and they just keep their feet on the ground.

Yeah You are so right Cameron, I must admit I did take a deep breath when you jumped up on all 4's the way you did. Filming and taking pics is one of my favourite thing about wheeling
