How'd you work that one Must have forgot about burning the washing Don't forget your tent

[Howlin' Wolf Challenge]

With all this nice weather we're having Ok, a bit of rain i bet all you V8 boy's can't wait to get stuck into Slab, as it's quite a dry place at the best of time's

Job's left to do remove old sticker's

[Front or rear diff lock?]

Escape is basing his ideas im sure, on rear wheel drive and rear engined sports cars, if you look at a normal front engined car, with front wheel drive, it will out perform a rear wheel drive car.

this could get very very complicated.

i think it depends on the weight distribution in your car.

i second nas90's pointss/

Also, why do american rock crawler people weld up their diffs?

No cost involved........ we've been doing it for in trialing. Weld up the front, fiddle's in the back, plenty of traction and turn on a sixpence

[Howlin' Wolf Challenge]

Yes well, i don't need your help with that (must pack iterm's to throw at co-driver)

[All Wheel Drive Club]

I really want to be there. Need to sort out the truck (still) and book the time off work.

And get a pass from her indoor's

[Howlin' Wolf Challenge]

Well people time's a tick'in are we close to being ready or are we worried

Me........ i'm ready, just need to give it the once over and load up

Ps........... just a small event in France on the 2nd first

[Donnington 4X4 show]

Just cleaned out the back of the van ready for Brokenpin's gear...... first up 7.30 m/bike ride in morning and then go and load up for the show

Twiggy......... you jammy git

[Donnington 4X4 show]

If I'm a good boy all week and don't annoy her, and that very hard especially after a day at Saleys wednesday traybacking the beast, then I stand a chance of a pass out.

God help me keep my gob shut, and my dirty fingers of the doors and things

I'll wait to see you at the first round then we're be able to have a trayback class soon!

[Donnington 4X4 show]

Mate, there's no chance of spending what I haven't got anyway!! Overtime needed urgently. I think I'm going to be dragging Trev round too..... I'll be the one next to the bloke in a hawiian shirt and red leather trousers!!!

Red that's a very light shade of Red

[Donnington 4X4 show]

I think I'll be there with SWMBO in tow.

Why's that......................... to stop you spending

[Eurotrial - Norway - July 2008]

We will be there - taking a week to drive up then back again. Fancy a convoy Peter??

I wonder if I could enter my D*l*ca in Standard Class

It would be to get some drivers to at least fly out and take a look - the 2009 event is in Germany and a lot easier to get to.

I think the likes of Chris Abel, Adrian Turner, Dirty Diesel should be pencilling 2009 in their diaries

(Mods any chance you could move this topic to Competing and delete this line)

Now i like the idear about 2009 as i'll have the new truck built by then.

[Donnington 4X4 show]

I'll be there on the All Wheel Drive Club stand with the first public showing of Portal Pete's new truck (get it finished Rob!!!)

I'll be the one shouting 'Roll up, roll up - get yer Howlin' Wolf T-shirts ere'

If you wanted an old shed on the stand you could have used mine see you there!

[New Hydraulic Winch]

Adrian,

For that you get a bare winch, i wanted to get a price up just to see how much interest there was.

We will be selling the FULL kit and the absolute price list will be going up at the show.

The parts list:

1 x winch setup

1 x winch

1 x motor

1 x pump & dogclutchover

1 x center valve

1 x single spool valve

1 x oil tank (bespoke)

7 x pipes

2 x winch setup

2 x winch

2 x motors

1 x pump & dogclutch

2 x overcentrevalve

1 x double spool valve

1 x oil tank (bespoke)

11 x pipes

spool valves can be manual/solonoid/single /double

I personally use solonoid and manual which lets you have very good control inside the car and fast rope dressing out side the car.

you can have whatever you like

John

Look's like we're be having a chat at Slab see you there

[New Hydraulic Winch]

PS May be worth say "What a bare" unit is - and what else they would need.- as not many will appreacite ........??

Ok, £1495. seam's like a good price......... but what do you get for that ??? and what else do i need to get it working, how much will that all cost???? and will you be doing a FULL kit........ if so how much???? No now't about oil driven winch's

Thinking about the next build.......
