Ok, so everything bearing-wise seemed tight as. Panhard rod bushes seem ok too.
Some of the wheels are missing weights though and given it got worse after my last outing I suspect now they've come off and the wheels are not balanced properly.
I'll book it in to get the wheels balanced and see if it improves.......

I am now sitting on 4 inch lift and will give it all a shake down next weekend before the big trip... should be fun, just waiting on panhards.
Is it the 11th yet.
What time are we scheduled to leave AB's on the Friday.
Will it be OK if I have a tag-along or two come up with me on Saturday morning, one patrol pretty stock I think, haven't spoken to him in months and the other is a hiluxifer, but i think he wont drive and probably jump in my car.

Gents I just found a great climb only 10 mins from house. Directly opposite my road 10 minutes down dirt road...awesome!
