I am having an affair with a younger Brumby
Posted: Mon Feb 26, 2007 3:06 pm
The replacement has arrived.
She is younger, she may be just 1800cc but her centre diff locks, her low is really low and her tyres are tall.
Ooh... she is all about what got me hooked the first time.
We have done 950kms together now
(Mildura to Melbourne is the most boring drive I have done for a long time)
She may be just 4 speed but her linkages are SO TIGHT, and no rattles from anywhere...there is a big difference between 190,000 kms and 340,000 kms.
No rust.
All the mechanicals are due for swapping in a month or so, or sooner if I get sick of the tappit and pushrod noises.
Groover loves what Rob has done to the tray sides
(smoothing and welding flat steel on the tops).....no more nail ripping hang ups on leaping in and out.
Here she is,
