Hey Weeds, thanks for a great day and same to your friends who own the farm. Col.Coleman asked me to pass on his thanks as well as he can't post here.

Some vid and pics. Re commentary: Navron, Andy didn't mean to can your ride or your driving:D and apologies for the burp:eek:, but Cameraboy did have the good manners to say "excuse me".:cool:

Thanks Weeds for a great day out.
and thank you Col.Coleman for showing me the way over and duck creek road where I ended up camping with friends.
The drive up duck creek road was fun, with tons of rain and hail (yes that white hard stuff that I havn't see since I left Vic 2 years ago)
Cheers All

Another quality ARB installation. Take it back as it sounds like the solonoid may have issues.

Looks like you had a great day out there and getting edgy after not 4WDing for over 2 months!!! Reading these trip reports is motivation to get the Vog all sorted and out on the tracks. Whilts you were out travelling across the countryside, I was busy fitting up the maxi's to the Vog (heavy **** job expecially without a 4 post hoist :() but all good although the brakes now need sorting but that's another story.

Re- Air lockers. I remember I had issues similar to yours when I had an air locker in the front on the Aquarangie year ago. Took it back to ARB several times and still to no avail, I sold the air locker without ever getting it fixed but I tell you it was bloody annoying and it constantly leaked even after they replaced the seal on the air locking ring.

I fitted a maxi-drive to the front complementing the rear, much happer (and more reliable) :D And I'm glad I never sold them.

anybody happen to take any pics of BUSTER, they could be last we will ever have

....a bit of a sad note too the weekend, when i went to leave the dairy farm this afternoon and we could not find BUSTER....i remember seeing him about forty min before leaving and now thinking back...it was strange him not buzzing around our legs giving us a lick or two as everybody probably copped one or two yesterday......have just got home with a very distressed family, i was hoping he may have turned up at he afternoon milk, sadly not..:BigCry::BigCry:


hope everybody had a good day, had a very windy campout with LRO last night.... we returned to the cliffs track as LRO thinks his centre diff lock was not engaged yesterday.....he drove up where i had to snatch him up yesterday with no worries

hey shep....that was a real bugger your passenger door, hope it comes up alright

[Col.Coleman]

Looky here. Joined up after meeting a great group of people and having a fantastic day out.
Weeds, thanks for the day out, your friends have a couple of wonderful propertys and very gracious of them to allow the club to be able to have access to them. Please pass on my thanks. One of our dogs did excactly the same thing last wednesday. New fence to build. Good to hear it all ended well.
Shepp that door has to hurt. Unlucky mate looking at the footage.
Navron and I got completely dumped on with rain between Carney's creek and Rath then it fined up but just as we hit the dirt on the bottom of duck creek road, down it came again, then the hail started. The day had everything now, even fog in the morning. Still saw an awesome sunset half way up the hill. Thanks guys, and one lady, very enjoyable indead. See you on plenty more.

i'm guessing my sills would have copped a bit, the lump of dirt to the front right of Zakros peeled all the paint off

Yes looking at the footage you wouldn't have thought I would have touched it. Very unlucky with that one I think, but what a great day with some great driving and beautiful scenery. Thanks to the guys who took the video on photos. ;)
