I'll be sleeping in the back. Yeah she would love to come but has to stay home to look after the rugrats.
Not a lot of jobs that are essential, but I haven't traveled too far in Scruby, so need to do a few preventatives.
I will need to ensure cooling system is ok. New rad hoses and thermostat and I'll get the radiator flushed and tested - maybe even a rodding to make sure. New fan belt. (Probably don't need all that, but will carry the old bits as spares)
Full service - all fluids replaced.
Fit new tubes (I am running tubless Michelin XZLs but should really have tubes fitted on the old rims) Find a second spare (I may just carry a extra tyre and tube rather than a complete rim - haven't decided on that yet)
Fit HF radio (I have an old CODAN that will give me a bit of "peace of mind")
Fit CB radio
Fit GPS (I have an old GARMIN - no maps but works great )
Other bits and pieces that I can think of but no major work (I hope
)
. Keeping stuff locked up in your head leads to trouble. You have to articulate your thoughts, verbally or in writing (ie posting here), to see if there's any sense in it.
