Hillbilly Rebel Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 Hi Rob. Good to hear your truck has passed the MOT, one step closer to getting ready for this years trip to the Alps. But between now and then you do need some serious tuition on as many different terrains as possible. Bunny Lane is a good start, but hardly testing enough to replicate what you are gonna be experiencing out in the Alps. Therefore I do reconmend a trip to say Shoreham, the Grand Canyon where you can get a feel for steep slopes and rocks. Remember the count down is on, ask Lisa, its only 25 week 1 day and X amount hours to go, so get your skates on!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minivin Posted January 27, 2006 Author Share Posted January 27, 2006 Its because we care! I know failed on the Sherpa LT77 though they had a sherpa but someone had nabbed the box already, LDV400 had a 34AxxxxxI box which is too late Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hillbilly Rebel Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 All due respect mate, but engine you have is fine, driving is what you need to be concentrating on at the mo! V8 can be done in less time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minivin Posted January 27, 2006 Author Share Posted January 27, 2006 All due respect mate, but engine you have is fine, driving is what you need to be concentrating on at the mo!V8 can be done in less time! ummm..... we found out while taking to the MoT that the present gearbox is seriously tempremental and notchy another part that should have been noted when I brought it (like the "serviceable" engine that was half full of water where it shouldn't have it) need to get the LT77 in even before the V8 as I aint happy with whats in there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
