Sh#t I new I forgot something, thanks Guy's, have been playing around with little circuit breakers and Lecy stuff too long! and still haven't done my Anderson plug run yet.
Have been working on the neighbours young blokes Hoon Machine while he is in Iraq, plus my boat too many projects, but as you say Chippy better than the idiot box.

I know its no excuse will take some pics shortly ops:

Just had a new Brown Davis plate installed. It looks to be good gear. Cost $320, installed by them in an hour. My wife took the car down. I didn't get to ask them about closing the gap between the bumper and the start of the bash plate which is about 150mm. I'll sort this out next. My pics are the third set of BD bash plates in this post. And I think they have evolved further judging by the bolt head protection that is now on them.

They have got bolt protection now have they....
I knew someone that worked there as production manager (so I wont tell you how much I paid for mine :wink: ) and a couple of months ago I told them to put bolt protection on, so maybe they listened

Have just ordered TJM plate, $188 supplied not fitted. Remodelled factory one reversing off a rock when to quote my 3 yaer old, 'daddy banged rock and made car stop' ops:

Anyway, the black tubular supports in the foreground of this picture, what do they do? Is it a drama if they are a 'little' banged up?

[vx05 Member Find all posts View Profile Close vx05]

Banged up a little bit, like say the one in these pictures.

First actual picture post

It looks like they are only a support member, but if they need replacing to keep anything aligned, it would be nice to know
Thanks

Hi Vx 05,
Strewth that vehicle has seen some rocks, I would be visiting a wrecker and replacing that tie arm, it is not a good look and mechanically its has been elongated so will not be doing its job all that well.
Hope this helps a little

[vx05 Member Find all posts View Profile Close vx05]

Thanks Clifton, not some, just one, but it was a goody.
I thought that replacement might be a good idea, now that I know what it's called I might even be able to source one or two (other side is not as bad, but not great either)
