    I don't know if it is feasible or not gadget...40mil would make all the difference. We rated ground clearance as one of the most important things for our Four Wheel drives. I wont be pushing this wagon as far as we used to push our meat hunting wagons so it wont matter I guess.

    None on the old Pajaro and she went fine. Don't pick up my 80 series till Thursday but will get a interfooler and exhaust done. Won't have 35's for a little while, winch, diff breathers, full service and big ends for peace of mind higher up the list.

    That was one of the things that put me off buying one. On the 4x4 forums they were being replaced with the cam belts all the time. Also see it on the list of what has just been done on TM adds. A problem with the 12V engines bit not the 24V ones.
    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!

    Will see if it makes it home from chch or not first.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
