Well that's exactly what makes it better than the Toyotas and Nissans.Quote:

Yes mate. I have the CDL and it was engaged. I had climbed underneath and put it in earlier in the day. I don't have a leaver or any other way of engaging it other than climbing under with a 10mm spanner.Quote:

To be fair, drivers skill level has a bit to do with as well..... put their cars in the hands of someone who knows what their doing and the result "might" have been a whole lot different....Quote:

It would have been near impossible to make it without a diff lock. The 80 series didn't have lockers. The HiLux only had standard road pattern tyres.
The Nissan I drove around I could say he was just in experienced. He went it slow the first time then went to the other extreme. It sounded pretty mean and there's every chance it was laggy off turbo and then out of control on boost.
Good stuff, thats the same hill climb I destroyed my rear puma 110
i like ur front bar Joel, what brand is that???
Nice videos!
Is there a story behind your lic plates?

The winch is mounted in a cradle separate to the bar.
Happy Days.
Personalized plates are cheap in the NT. Bathurst is home but we haven't lived there for about 12 years and haven't lived anywhere for longer than 4 years. There's a chance I might be moving from the NT in near future. We just lost.Quote:
