Nice fridgie...you will be everyones best mate for a while on the tracks...now to get Joe into a photographic recovery position for your first :twisted:

Yes after saying that it will probably be me...but I'm betting on Kyle :lol:

you must have a crystal ball chickie. That is what will happen for sure. Like homer Said I think the first recovery will definatley be an "own goal"

Postby fridgie on Thu Feb 10, 2011 10:06 pm

Of course I'm probably going to be the first to need it now I have it!! :roll:
Might be encouraged to try harder now I have self recovery available :lol:

Should have worded it differently....

OTHER THAN MYSELF...who will be first on the other end of my winch...maybe I can drag Chicky into somewhere special ;)

Countered for the bar but not the winch, that was a little surprise investment ;)

Still haven't been bothered to measure it yet, but will this arvo when I pick it up from getting my steering column replaced :D (love this site :lol: )

After fitting the winch it didn't seem to drop much if any, had lost about 5mm with the front bar and now it's had time to settle should hopefully be around the 5-10mm lower than when the sussy was redone at new years. Damn it looked high then :mrgreen:

Well, measured tonight and the fronts are sitting at 570 or there abouts, so with it settling, the bar and winch it has dropped about 15mm total down from 585ish.

Sorry 26, no money left at all.......I wish :(
