Troubled times for WA crew!

Just thinking about everyone's current ability to go on offroad trips...lots of people with big problems atm.

Jonno - still yellow sticker woes?
Subarino - rear drive shaft?
Tim - still one wheel drive?
Mattims - EA82 chemiwelded, EJ20TT main bearing gone?
Jaffa - blown head gaskets?
Subamike - MY decommissioned, Liberty needs lift!
Aspro - something to do with front pulleys?

Have I missed anyone?

And I'll be out of action as of next week when I start down the conversion road.
Can't wait until everyone is up and running again so we can have a few more large outings - hopefully during summer!

No, I'm not 1WD any more. I am the CV guru!!

However the wagon is still out of action due to a bent radius rod, no steering (sheared knuckle) and a squashed lift block.

Suba 88 - Car is running fine. Just waiting to finish work in 2 weeks and then i'm going to need some help to put the Weber Carby in.

I'm up for a 4wd anytime.

Well us ground hugger rice boy 2wders dont seem to break much in
the way of anything .

I know its not as exciting as what the gang gets up to (yes the blooper tape says it all) but hey its better to keep the daily driver safe.

Cheers Pete

Hey all

*sticks hand straight up in the air like and eager 5 yr old*

Mines still in its initial fix up from the previous owners neglect but count me in for some mild tours I'll try to keep up. Can't wait to meet up with you folks and see some of these rides you own.

we should do something b4 Mike strips the old girl down and sells her off for parts to everyone .... kinda like a final farewell... but i think that he said something about the rear cv or axle... but then again don't quote me

Subarino was talking about doing something however we have no idea how many of us will be operational.

i might have to retract my previous statement.... on the plus side of things i know that my cooling system is holding pressure. If only that damm radiator cap would stay on.

BlackMale · Post by **BlackMale** » Thu Dec 15, 2005 12:06 pm

Um, have u tried another 1?

SuBaRiNo · Post by **SuBaRiNo** » Fri Dec 16, 2005 10:42 pm

A large percentage of over heating issues are fixed by replacing the radiator cap.

I do want to arrange some sort of trip within the next month. So everyone should be getting there cars back together. Maybe if we can get some sort of collective ETA on everyones repairs.
