A great SLU*Ts day out (Which went pear shaped)

BOOMER · Jul 6, 2009

Well I defo got to do summat about my exhaust and quick cos todays laning trip just about finished it off, as well as my rear diff:doh:

I think piccies will appear in this fred soon as DV excelled himself in getting stuck again as did Muddydisco4 and Drewster in trying to pull him out.

I blew my already shagged rear diff up trying to pull MD4 out.

Me and DV went back to his place and fitted a replacement diff in just over the hour whilst Ratty made his way down with winches and extra strops as DV was stuck, VERY stuck in a dead end lane.

You might say that this was a recce gone wrong, oops......

Big thanks to Ratty for coming out and helping to sort the situation, I.m sure DV will buy a big bottle of T-cut for ya

I gotta be honest I've never seen hedges clean a landy as well as they did. My landy went down the lane brown and came back out white.

I was working yesterday so never actually went on the recce. I went down after work to help get em out. If Boomer's diff had held out they coulda got muddy disco out.

At least I know now what was causing all that driveline shunt!

Thankyou to DV for letting me have his spare diff

I'm not even going to say what my paint looks like now, or mention that new dent

Here's the 3 paltry pics I managed before my camerafone decided it was not gonna take any more :doh:

Cant think why I had a spare diff lyin around

, but still not a bad effort to change diff and rear prop in an hour.

As for the weather was really nice, just that next time I read on the tinterweb that a ford is imapassable I might just believe it :doh::doh:.

A mahoosive thanks to Ratty for coming out to save the day, thank god you weren't working. I think you are owed loads of beer or is that chippies for your efforts.
