Miss Daisy's Punishment

[fridgie]

Was my old xtm strap (which really needs to be thrown away) as I had forgotten my just straps kit. That one is rated to 8000kg and has been used far too many times to work properly. Was definitely poor form on my behalf that did the damage to the hook. Lesson #30985751 learnt

[Diablo]

I'm pretty sure I stopped dead with the snatch. The strap certainly felt like it had stuff all give.

[fridgie]

It was the first strap I bought so think how many times its been used now

Is meant to be in there for emergency use only, but as I said, left the other full kit at home.

Fridgie at work at Scenic rim recently. this is not where he did the damage to the bash plates. will hopefully have that for you later. excuse my little brothers shakey camera work

Stupid tapatalk... Knew that would happen when it wouldn't reload

And besides.... It's MY damn thread...I'll post as many times as I like

[fridgie]

Try a navara... Tell your dad he's a prick

Doesn't look like it but I had to grab the grass just to be able to walk up that. Then ended up about 400metres past the car when I couldn't stop on the way down Mrs D was on the ground laughing at me

^^^^ what did mrs D fall on her arse again......

[fridgie]

At least I got her on video when that 'trip' happened

Fridgie- what were your tyre pressures on that last hill climb?

[fridgie]

Started at 16psi and didn't check after that, might have gone up a little from there by the time I attempted the hill.

[fridgie]

Ok, very small update....

Radiator has been repaired, front locker has been repaired, New mounts welded on and new 4mm bash plate fitted

[reeldreamer]

Love the colour mate!!! Welding is pretty good for you I reckon some red mesh would look good behind the triton? I have some if you want it??

[danmcccc]

bit rough on the gear fridgie...need some bigger rubber mate, lift your shiny bashplate away from the rocks

[fraz91]

well at least you've made the mounts a little stronger

[Diablo]

How the new plates hold up after landcruser mate?

[RossyB07]

Have you been in a Heineken ad recently? Coz jeez that bloke in the latest ad looks like you lol! Nice job.

[fridgie]

New plates seem to be holding up well, although haven't given them a 'real' workout.....yet

Seriously thinking about a 1/4 chop and custom bar as an easier fix than repairing my tub
Also looking into some recovery point options as I no longer have any for the front, hope to get something up and running pretty soon in that department, and a replacement winch cable

Sorry Rossy, no tv work for this little black duck, guess I have a doppelganger

I'll be getting some recovery points custom fabbed some time next week fridgie . This was meant to be done at the start of the year but the guy has been flat out.

I'll post pics and info in the recovery point thread when there done

[RossyB07]

How's that clutch holding up?
