Steve 90 Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Sounds like you guys had a good day. Was it anyone from here that I saw heading north on the A46 near Bath about 1845 as I came south with my caravan on heading back from 7Sisters? We did some waving. Pretty sure I spotted Neil in his Dacia heading that way too, too late to wave sadly.Chris We saw a landrover with series front end and massive tyre's (think ive seen Dollythelw post pic's of it) on a a trailer near nexwport on the m4 heading for the seven bridge, I gues they had been to seven sisters! As for not having lockers my rear is not working and air is coming out of the axle breather so we ended up doing the afternoon without any. Should have thought and swapped pipe's round, Would have atleast had a front then. Best go get the diff out so I can see whats happened.

Even though I got mine slightly more muddy than I would of liked your soooo not the only one - - although it does show who the workers were out of the group just look at Pauls and Adrians - absolutely spot less... I bet they didn't even get out of the motor (apart from toilet breaks that is) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
will_warne Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Sounds like I missed a good one! The only person I saw coming back along the M4 was Rob Jones' hybrid behind Gwyn's van. I was going to flash but I only noticed just as I was passing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
white90 Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 pleased with finishing and driving home safe and sound just repaired the rear tub once a bit of paint is added it'll look fine. time wasted repairing winch brake was a real ball ache. dented exhaust box/paint removed from radius arms appears to be the only casualty. PS re CB I did have it on all day and couldn't get you lot to hear me either It was ch22 as I was told at the start wasn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve 90 Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Well we were on ch21 but also broke the arial when we rolled so we prolly couldn't talk to anyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve 90 Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Yep, ARB. Pulled it out this afternoon and the copper (I think) pipe from the bulkhead fitting in the diff casting to the diff aint attached no more. Hence no lockers! Atleast its easy to fix. Bit of a bummer as I only had the two diff's out last week now the rear's out again. Never mind aye! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blinking thing was damn heavy. PS you were right. I've never been to the walnut tree. Na, Think its just broke. No sign of it being knocked anywhere along the pipe or owt. Its been pulled apart and put back together quite a few time's and its broke right where you have to bend the pipe to get it out the casing so I spect it had just had enough! One of them things!
