  1. Just found the photo Gallery Link for the event we did at Easter in the Alps! Great Event amazingly organized & very tough 3 days 1 night & minus a lot most of the time. There are a lot of piccys but worth a look to see the various terrain out there ! Keep in mind when looking at some of the rocks that my tyres are 44" just to give you a perspective http://66.102.9.104/translate_c?hl=en&...emid%3D88888895 If that doesnt go all the way like Jims missus? Then its the Extreme Adventure 2008 last option of photos 960 of them .

    Hi , Most tool shops sell a pump that fits to an electric drill that suck & Pump they are around £14 & are excellent Sometimes in the cold you will need to prime the pump using a funnel to get it to suck EP80 Peter
  4. Well thats the only hole ive been stuck in lately .Most wet holes ive been in lately are all sloppy
  5. Glad to hear your ok mate Cant be one down for 3 peaks !! Have you booked the hotel yet?? Peter
  6. If you like Jimbo just one question whos giving me ******** you or the missus Ready for another ass rasping then this year ????? Guess what it looks like i have got Jewsons to sponsor the event by supplying some rather large concretepipes etc for us to drive on .The smallest is 4ft in diameter Looking forward to it Cherry boy.
  7. In the Us they just seem to put Hummer drop boxes on any axle & just fit new CPs to fit
  8. [ as for the V8 - all show and no go. Far too much emphasis on loads of noise, bellowing exhaust and chucking clods of mud around with wheels spinning wildly... pah! What ever TDI can spin 44s then can it dont tar us all with the same brush Why not a compromise if you like a Alloy Twin Turbo V8 Diesel only down side i can see is you get away from electrics with the diesel then go back to them with the twin turbo diesel setup. I am looking at a Duramax in the new truck but the electrics seem to outway the LS7 option .The diesel is around the same BHP the torque is about 100 more & it will give back 30% more economy . Either will spin 44s or drive up a bank at tick over . The bit i cant understand is why you would want to anyway ???
  9. Not to mention if your neighbours are washing there cars or all running baths etc at the same time !!!!!!!!!!Fit a pumped system is the only way to guarantee water pressure. Hey what do i know
  10. Funny that my Bead locks with the 44s are a little unnerving over 70mph as well
  11. 5 years of trying and alot of money spent That makes you a cheque book Dad on this Forum Well done mate ! Took me 4 years but must say best F****** 4 years of my life

  14. Me TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO My mates sheep had a good service from Si as well but complained it didnt last long though
  15. Bryn Hemming .Comps a rangie & has done all my suspension work on various car all with non-standard engines etc i can pm his number if you like.Peter
  16. Cant open piccys .Anyway a bunch of flowers to the wife would be more helpful
  17. Ask me nicely Mr T & it will have purple rope on it
  18. Can someone post a piccy of a new twin 8274 complete winch as the wife needs it to finish my new stickers. thanks
  19. Your get a bit wet in the cab though B) & where does the lights & that go Mind you look good on portals & 44s
  20. The only rope ive never had a problem with is 14mm apart from it getting stolen at Billing I would never go back to wire EVER the 2 guys i team with break them a regular as i do with plastic rope . Mind you i do take great care of mine & only winch in a straight line on falt ground & wash it after every pull
  21. I will be happy to answer any questions you may have about it, both on and off forum. Regards, Andy Thomlinson. Yer can you still get it up at your age ?????????
  22. Hi Pete, I have a Quick Air 3 electric compressor & it pumps my 42" from 3psi to 20 in about 4 mins . Got the Pro-power tank & it will fill my new 44 Boggers in about 50 seconds apparantly & about 20 tyres worth. Lighter fuel & a rag works well if you kill a bead lock Pump your spare to a much as you dare as you drive along & then when you stop use a link hose to pump the other tyres up one at a time. That is really cheap as well . Spare tyre 70psi if you dare .1st go a few seconds on each say 10 psi to 15 psi on each. Drive a while whilst your Halfords pump does it bit for 10mins on your spare & then start again.etc etc etc. Depends if your in a rush.
  23. Ive got a BRAND NEW 3 axle 7ft 4" wide one in Tewkesbury that may be available.If you scratch it you buy it though !!!!!
  24. The other ground anchor i have used & it has NEVER failed but takes a while to set up is plates & pins !!The bar far best anchor system i have ever see was in the US up a huge rock raveen with no anchor points only sand on a 200m strop to go around them was a Hilti gun with rawl toggle fixings No very PC but funny as fcuk to watch .Plus the guy wouldnt leave the screw in anchors for the next Truck
