Well I did the "monthly" test of the winch. It started OK but slowed as it rolled out then stopped. What a pain to manually roll back in. So I undid the motor and about 500mL black oily water cane out. Then took it off the bullbar and opened it up. This is what I found -
Probably explains why it stopped. I then cleaned it up and gave it to my son. He dismanteled it and sadly the main shaft had also snapped, so I'm up for a new one.Greg - 08 D4D Prado,

I think it beats many of the NZ hot springs, especially the South Island ones that do have a very low flow. IMO Dalhousie Springs are one of the great attractions on the Simpson Crossing.[B][COLOR=blue]Bitumen: A blatant waste of taxpayers money![/COLOR][/B]

Yes it is a worry what some people do, and how they leave a place. Sadly Purnie Bore is a bit hot to swim in, but they do have a hot shower. The pool around the bore is quite picturesque. The bird life is quite good there as well.Greg - 08 D4D Prado,
