I think it depends on what you are after, Larger/wider tyres get very close to bulkhead outriggers or you want better weight distribution as the front axle would sit well forward of engine, boothy has added 12" to his truck and moved engine back aswell, obviously the rear axle back is a lot less work, I did both on my still un-finnished truck so it is 106" wheel base with front 6" forward plus bulkhead and engine 3" back, Lots of extra work, but when finnished will be worth it, Carl.

Hi, Gigglepin arms are about 300mm longer than standard, you could move the front axle forward aswell to get good weight distribution, bit more work involved but i would say its worth doing, Carl.

This link gives a good idea of what they need to be like, http://www.trail-gear.com/links.html Carl.

http://www.msauk.org/uploadedfiles/msa_for...e_blue_book.pdf Have a look here, Carl.

Pre-Heat is a good idea, Tack your brakets on first if you can to avoid buring yourself, Carl.

They are cast steel so should be fine, Carl.

http://www.simmal.co.uk/media/Simmal_Stock_List.pdf Try these, They are in preston http://www.raaltd.com/locations.htm or this one, They all deliver and may have a run near you, Carl.

If you use a flap wheel put some tallow or candle wax on to help stop clogging, Carl.

Your stuff is in my garage minus guard that is at galv shop so i will contact you about rest in new year, Carl.

I answer my mobile or will return missed calls on it, landline just goes to voicemail and i have no accses to them, As said end of jan should be all sorted, Carl.

No one has been ripped of in any way, no one rings up to see whats going on and then just slags me off on the forum, i have lost my bussines and i am trying to sort things as best i can and it is taking time, i am on with the outstanding orders over christmas break so EVERYONE will have orders by end of january garanteed, Disco ron How can you complain when you still owe for what you have got,Yes your order was short but you still need to pay me, pit bull pm me who your mate is so i can contact them, the ones who have contacted me recently know what is going on, Carl.

I have not been avoiding people i am working on Richards car and it is taking longer than expected, i'me shure he will confirm this, it is nearly finished so i can concentrate on other things getting finished, i do answer my mobile so anyone can get hold of me on that, i know things have been dragging on for a while but i will get everyone's stuff out to them as soon as i can, Carl.

Bet that looks like a jack russel stood next to you

You have been informed,golddigger has gone bust and i am trying to sort things out as fast as i can,i have no workshop at moment so this slows thing down bear with me and i will get your orders to you, Slag me off about having to wait but you won't get riped off

Hello, I have not gone missing and your car is quite safe and nearly finnised, Golddigger has gone a bit pear shaped at minute so i have shut down to sort it out, anyone who has orderd stuff will get it just need to bear with me so i can get it out to you asap, Carl.

Some good photos in there, Also a very rare one of saley out of the car,must have had cramp or needed a pee Carl.

Send a PM to mrHT he is one of the event organisers so he will advise, Carl.

How it worked was pick a ticket out of the bag some had 2 punch numbers on and some single, go do them then go back to punch control and then same again, we wer'nt shure about this way at first but it worked good becouse you know that no one else is in the punch, and after every 5 punches you got some ref numbers to a bonous punch, Carl.

That rules you out Carl.

Support the northern events, anyway we need to talk about these axles, Carl.

But you need to remember that the more experienced drivers where beginners at some point so if you are the less experienced driver then your own truck will evolve with money spent on it over the years and more experienced you become so really it goes full circle, and the events can be more extreme than west harptree, corwen was a interesting event, Did you compete or spectate at weekend, Carl.

We have chosen to have helmets before it is compulsery so have got a msa spec plus motor sport type lend themself to the intercoms which is a good thing, organisers may just go the MSA way to save confusion, Carl.

The helmets have to meet certain standards and water sport/skateboard type don't meet it, the link nobby has put on is a popular type and this has lots of choice/price from various manufactures, If you are going to get one before it becomes compulsory then get one of the correct type then you don't buy twice, http://www.tayforestchallenge.org.uk/rules_and_regs.htm This is the rules copied from the tay and explains a lot about the subject, Carl.

You may need to have one made at a fab shop, never seen one so big, Carl.

I think that the buxton one will tell you if there is enough interest, like anything new it will take time for it to get established and once the word gets about then you shoud get the following, Carl.
