Taken from another forum
Views are being sought of the use of the Pennine 'Bridleway'. By the NTs own admission the route of the Pennine 'Bridleway' also consists of Restricted Byways and BOATS, therefore comments are invited from all user groups!
Note how the 'nice rambler' who originally posted the thread has used spin to put a completely different slant on the subject, no doubt designed the rally the troops!
If you were cynical, you can see where this is could be heading!

Well done.
Was this a CRAG organised event Paul.
Not as such, it was John (crag member) who asked if I could help, it was on the CRAG forum. It just needed doing asap. It should last a long time, but we still need to go and look at the rest next Saturday Bob.

Lastly (I promise!)
Does this mean then that one albright solenoid will replace the 4 warn ones?
Chris

Well today we; Hoodoo (John), Foxdog01 (Garry), Kayakingsimba (Steve) and myself, John and myself are CRAG members and Garry and Steve are members of the local club The Muddy Millers. Went up the Wayfarer to repair the part of the Sleeper section. The sleepers had given away and it had formed a hole. We removed all the sleepers from the hole and placed some of them long ways in the hole and then replaced the top layer. We used 16mm steel spikes to hold some of the sleepers down. It all took about 2 hours to do.The repair looks like it will last another 20 years.

drive it listen for odd noises in high/low and in diff lock(if possible)
if poss remove the PTO cover and bearing carrier then remove the input gear and have a look at the gear itself, with a torch you can look at the gears in the box, finally drain the oil check the drain plug for broken bits(small amount of swarf on drain plug is pretty normal.
disgusting oil or burnt oil I'd leave it as it hasn't been looked after.
Thanks for that, but as per my first post its not fitted to a land rover right now. Price is ok at £50 and I am told it its a good one. But do not want to fit it and find out its no good.

Have you tried his mobile? If you want it let me know and I will pm it. I do know he was ill before christmas so it may have something to do with it. I have not spoken to Richard for about 6 weeks but can call him and tell him your trying to get hold of him.

Pheasant Pen Steps
Please can people not use this lane. The reason I ask is I was up there today and the bottom is getting dangerous. The bank next to the pens at the bottom is giving away. There’s a chance of someone trying to do it, sliding off the road and ending on their side or roof. This lane is North Powys Denbighshire border. I will not post pictures of it or the grid ref as someone from one of the councils might see it and close it.

You need at least a 10T press, but I have seen a 20T press not even move the bushes.

My god the scrap value has gone up!!
Paul

I've only seen them in action on j**p's so it was hard to tell if it was the tyre or the car that was carp
I know someone with some 37" ones for sale as I told him not to get them and he did not listen.

Excellent off road at low pressure.
For what they are designed to do.
Biggest problem is the weak side wall. SO get the comp spec ones that have extra layers.
Why are they no good in your experience / opinion.
FB
Just no grip, I ried them all pressures. No good going backwards either. My Bronco Dirt Devils were a lot better. Yes the side walls are carp, they cut to easey. Not to bad in deep mud, do not like coming out of ruts, or biteing into the ground.

You can get the Hi-gain aerials. But make sure the router you have will let you undo the aerial(s) on it. They are about £18 each. My wifi will reach about 30m with them and about 100m with them.

PS Pro Comp XTerrain is actually a great tyre
I have to dissagree with that
