    Rear diff lock... i almost always use the rear diff lock when momentarily stuck in sand when using my TREDS. Why? Because i use the treds under the rear wheels and i know with the rear locked in i will get equal power to both wheels on the treads thus eliminating any wheelspin and enables me to get unstuck quick. I know where you are coming from but as you know, every situation is different so you do what you believe is your best option.

    So my way of thinking is this..better to have 3 wheels always turning than two, 4 is better..but i don't have a front locker.


    To date, i have never been bogged in the sand, while some might say mere symantecs, stuck is bogged etc, i beg to differ, i have always got myself unstuck in the sand, perhaps i am not trying hard enough to get bogged, or maybe i just plan well.
    Ah, I see. Overcoming a temporary loss of momentum! Yes. No worries. If you want to try.bogged drive in really soft sand with the locker engaged.

        Congrats on the land acquisition! Is it legal to live in a shed? My brother did this years ago when he built his house in Woori Yallock but I believe it was technically illegal at the time.

          Congrats mate that's great news!! And once the house is built you can look down on people who have old houses that aren't all new and shiney. It's win win win for you my friend!!!

                Most beach houses are... otherwise they'd be known a possum shack...?

                  The block is 810 square metres.

                  An old google maps aerial view of the location and our block is in that lot

                  You've scored there. Looks awesome. Feel free to look down on my caravan on the coast from the comfort of your shed

                      Like Bendman loves shooting stuff and killing, Jss (James) loves blowing stuff up
                      I am good at well, nothing really..but i have a fancy title.
                      Fido is SWMBO..and you cannot have that rank

                      and Jase, well Jase sits back and lets us do all the nasty stuff.
                      Hard to say, I'm not yet battle proven, and I don't like blowing my own trumpet. Because I can't, I have tried, and I just can't, maybe 15 years ago, but not know.
                      And I'm definitely not in the same league as the founding members...but I'm sure i can find some suitable meaningless title

                            Just funning with you :-0



                            Hey Bendman, hope the family dramas get sorted quickly so you can jump back into the fray.

                              Issue is a fact of life but doesn't necessarily devalue the love the family has for the member.

                              Would love to have a gtg as I have never felt more a part of the PP team than I do right now.
                              Hope it sorts out.

                                And now the after pic..now the shack has gone and block cleared ready for the new slab.




                                I will post more when things progress.

                                This is a terrible block with a very crappy view. I mean it's all sandy & stuff and you look out the front and can't even see any nice buildings or a servo or even a Maccas with bogans in patrols in the carpark. And look how bloody close to the water it is, how stupid you could trip over fall in and get all wet, or pinched on the tackle by a crab, or even have your toes bitten off by a shark.

                                Don't worry fresh meat, you will get used to blowing your own trumpet. The best thing is you get to polish your trumpet all the time completely guilt free, the KLC does not judge. And as you can tell we encourage wanker behaviour.

                                Yes but he has to get the "extra insurance" on it because we are going to trash the shit out of it, then use it as the campfire to toast our marshmellows on.
