But to do that now days would be silly...lol97 VX Grande, with front & rear air lockers, ARB Sahara winch bar with tigers 11 winch, 2" EFS lift, 265/75/16 Achilles Desert hawk XMT, and more.

Never been so easy to hook up trailers.2011 150series GXLComment

Clutch is all good, I used low range gears instead of high range and my endless air compressor was able to keep the air up to the trailers very easy.
Roo, I did a change over for the return leg and as a result the trailers were empty. Full or nont l don't notice the extra weight. 3in exhaust helps. Wish I the chip still. Would have been handy for the hills thou.Winston.
