    I got the broken head bolt out... I rang The Stud Doctor and he gave me advice over the phone and it came out easy..

    Nice change to have a bloke give free advice and not come around to take money off me for something he knows is an easy fix.

    Now what to do???

    Head bolts on order....

    I thought the stud doctor would be more about getting it in rather than out.........

    I have a lot to update but a bit busy at the moment but just wanted to mention that the rear bar I have made has stood up to its first real test..

    At Brindabella while we were negotiating a really tough down hill rock ledges my rear bar landed hard on a rock ledge and came through unscathed..... my welding has held up so far!!!!!!

    I am proud of myself....!!!

    Suspension is brilliant... I am worried about not having the correct bump stops and need to get onto that soon.

    I think Andy wants to change his set up partly from watching how much flex I get now.

    Nothing troubles me specially with the front locker... I know in the past there were tracks we did that would have given me a real hard time and with the locker and the amount of suspension travel I get I need not drive like I stole it which in turn hopefully means less stuff breaking.

    I have still not gone out with the 35's on where clearance might be an issue to see how all that goes.... soon I think!!!
