  1. Has anyone found any decent holesaws for the notchers, nice and deep ones?
  2. Trailer looks really good. Thanks to challenger for a great day, I thought the punches were really well laid out and looking forward to the next one.
  3. Great day, thanks to everyone who made it happen. Took a few pictures at the end of the day after breaking, thanks to Lucy for looking for a spare radius arm and Andy for offering the use of his. Not many but the rest are here how do you insert images from flikr?
  4. are the different ratios too far out to be usable? Currently have a 200tdi with a manual gearbox but lost a few gears over the weekend, the trucks only used offroad. I already have a autobox out of a 94 3.9 v8 so was wondering if it could get me out of trouble for the time being? Seeing as it stays in low i would imagine it would be okay
  5. mine came from Trick Tools in the states, shipping was $210 for the bender and a die and i think the import duty was £60. It worked out about £200 cheaper than a quote from Tubela i beleive. The exchange rate was pretty similar to how it is at the moment.
  6. i took a break from doing an assignment/'studying' to take a look. Had to use some serious zooooom to get some pictures but looked like a very good event It was a nice day not many but the rest are here
  7. ill be there freezing my nuts off saturday night. will there be any food sunday? Also for saturday nights feast are there town close by?
  8. they look like headman headers, i bought a set a couple of months ago from real steel for 100 cheaper
  9. i was under the impression as long as your a memeber of an MSA club, awdc for me, then you didnt need to join HBLRO. I joined last year, only used it once and now its up for renewal before the event.
  10. ive been looking into getting a JD2 model 3 and one die. Trick tools on ebay in the states will ship to the UK, the quote i got was £500 shipped, but then theres the import taxes, not sure how there worked out. Also spoke to tubela they quoted £660 which was good until they added VAT and it came to around £750 to my door. Does anyone know how much you would be charged for importing?
  11. Had a brilliant time so thanks to all involved. Bit of a cockup with wiring, abit of a rush getting the truck ready and cut away some of the front panel so i could get the winch in and out, the panel lost abit of strength. When there was abit of weight on the bonnet it came down and touched one of the winch motor terminals, welded the bonnet to the terminal, melted the wire connecting the earths on the batteries which then touched a terminal on the split charge relay ruining it, the cab then filled with smoke and i was out in a flash. Spent the rest of the day winching a little then waiting for it charge for a few more feet. Really liked the site and some fantastic pictures so far.
  12. Thanks to all for a great day. Spent most of the day stuck in the mud after the winch packing up, cheers to the chaps who pulled us out. It took quite a while to disconnect all the wires, and cut a few to change the winch, does anyone know of any good connectors to speed things up abit? didnt get many pictures but everyone loves pictures so here they are where the winch met its end special stage cleaned my co-driver up abit
