still a plugger but usefull stuff none the less.

I spent two weeks in the Austrian alps this year temps were often below -10 and their was frequent snow. I was also at between 2 and 3000m on the Nuestift glacier. All this done with 205 Avon Ranger AT's fitted, with chains as a back up, so I reckon you should be okey dokey with your set. The...

Now I'm just miffed I'm getting 18 - 20 from a 2 1/4!

Listen to Marcus dude, You need to stop right now and check all your levels. Run any of the drive trains dry and you'll trash them = expensive repairs. The fact that it appears that oil is comming from the G Box does not mean that it is comming from the G Box. It could already be too late...

FFS guys - anything less than 10mm disposable Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! I may not not know a whole heap about landies but I do know how to sharpen a drill bit. I work all day with young 'tradesmen' and it shocks me how poor their bench-fitting skills are. If you use a lot of drill bits, or just...

Marcus is the man to ask - he went from a 2 1/4 D to a V6 petrol! Jealous? Me? Never!

crayons is for pufs - out with the felt tips and be stuffed if you make a mistake

As I understand it the issue is with the weight bearing capability of the gutters - they're crap. Just think about the stresses you are transmitting through that **** skinny mild steel when travelling cross country. If you need to put a lot of weight up there then you really need to mount your...

Depends very much on what, exactly, you mean by "snow and ice conditions". The rangemaster is an AT tyre and should do for run of the mill European conditions. If you think you may encounter serious snow then snow chains are the way forward. If you mean arctic-circle -40 ice then you'll need...

I used to use Jenolite on all sorts but came to the conclusion that the stuff is a nightmare. It's just too corrosive; it'll do more damage than good if even just a small amount is left on. To get metal clean I don't think you'll go far wrong with a needle gun or, if you haven't got access to...

run my SIII with 750x16 25 on the front and 30 at the back

Yup, 11 on 88s, 10 on 109s, 8 on Heavy Duties and 9 on Extra Heavy Duties.

You might need to fit some amplivox to the driver too :)

bit of both fella, and I have to say that I'm looking forward to it.
