    Gu broke in half

    Any body up the high country over the Easter break know the guy in the GU Dual cab that broke in two on Billy goat. This guy had an alloy box on the back 10 solid guys could not lift. The chassis broke both sides in front of shock towers on the back. After un loading he spooled out the winch over the roof onto his towbar and winched it back into position as best he could.
    the care factor was very low.
