Had a boulder roll up under the axle, and it looks like it hit shaft on the way out. Probably should have had a spotter On the bright side, they aren't the super expensive shocks and haven't got huge amounts of kilometres on them, so I think I can get away with just replacing the one.

Installed a rear LED.


And toying with the idea of installing a couple on the tail lights like such:


I'm on the fence about it, what do you guys reckon? Does it look dicky?

Don't like those lights on the tail lights. Dicky.
Nice build though.

Thanks Rusty, they'll be gone. I tested out the one over the licence plate last night and concluded if I need more light than that puts out going in reverse, than something is really wrong.
