Big rock from the other week did abit more damage then first thought. Long side tube is bent, and the C is a little twisted.

Out came the diff and another back in. Just have to tighten control arms and add oil and I'm ready to go wheeling again.

No big secret mate... The JCR cost me 620 AUD delivered...But as I said their black Friday sale was on and I used a freight forwarder to send it to me...Freight price gets cut in half though does take about a week longer as it gets shipped to the US address then forwarded...Happy to give you name of the company for freight just PM me.

2 wins yesterday

1. Leaking coolant turnout out to be just a loose radiator hose clamp.
2. Clunking from bell housing turned out to be loose flex plate bolts.

Two fixes for zero $$

It broke down on me! Stopped dead between Port Augusta and Port Pirie, pulled it off to the side of the road in the sun and started work. No spark, no error codes so started with the igniton system, CAS, dizzy, rotor cap and turned out to be the coil. Feels good and bad, good because I finally got to use the spares I carry, bad because it broke down and was a 2 month old "performance" coil from rock auto.

Went to glasshouse, got snatched and got caught on a tree stump, tore my handbrake cable like a slingshot and snapped my rear breather hose, and fuel line to shreads and bent my track bar in half............
