Got back fine, now unloaded and parked up. Had a great weekend, tested the latest mods and pleased none of them fell off

Shame people had problems on the journeys too and from but fingers crossed it's nothing a bit of tlc won't cure for the various issues.

BD - Paul had an impressive twin fan and shroud setup from a Mondeo that keeps his V8 cool.

Yup, just had that very twin fan set up fitted with the new engine

I'm banking on mucky rad etc

Brynjaminjones · « **Reply #81 on:** May 18, 2014, 10:04:58 PM »

Got back safely (eventually), and under my own steam - sometimes literally!

Cheers Jay and Sarah for showing me just how much mud the XJ can get through, James for guiding me around the trials that I never thought I'd get through, Gaz for his helpful advice and very generously letting me drive the truck, and everyone else just for providing an amazing weekend!
It was good to see you all, meet some new faces, and I can't wait until the next one I can afford to attend!

JamesH · « **Reply #82 on:** May 19, 2014, 07:19:09 AM »

Glad you got it home Bryn. Thinking about the muddy radiator problems made me remember I used to carry a Hozelock sprayer to clean the Jeep before driving home.

Thanks to James and Gaz for organising paperwork etc. Great weekend on a great site, fun times. I will put my hands up for the Zuki, driver error. Trailer got recovered eventually think it will get weighed in now!

What happened to the trailer then?

Tonight, I shall mostly be going in search of the TJ's engine & anything else under the bonnet with the aide of a pressure washer

Good fun was had at Harptree, the black pudding scotch eggs with runny yolks were a culinary masterpiece, great site, good to see folks turn up just to say hello after unplanned breakages trying to get there.

Cracking weekend, just a slightly longer than planned trip home

.... but if thats the only hiccup, I can deal with that

Thanks for coming to play folks

The rear suspension unit on the near side detached it's self from the chassis. Result one fried tire and evidence the chassis has had it's day.

JamesH · « **Reply #87 on:** May 19, 2014, 03:33:53 PM »

I'll have the hitch off it if you don't have plans for it!

As Gaz said, it was great to see people turning up just to say hello & point and laugh at us doing stupid stuff. Looking forward to Wagtail now and hoping to see less breakages for people on the journey there.

Got home to find Tesco valetters have cleaned the Jeep

Took 2 blokes 40 mins & still only charged £10 ..... even blacked the tyres

Just gotta pick a few lumps off & its sorted

Somebody feeling a little bad I suspect but shit happens

£10 probably came out of the man draw but frankly I dont care ...... marvellous result

Great to see everyone, talking of everyone, where was everyone?

Quite surprised by the patrols capability, its reassuring to know that you can boot it and axles won't break

Dtimot8 · « **Reply #92 on:** May 19, 2014, 07:41:14 PM »

I say chaps jolly good fun w/end what
trip back was interesting
decelerate and the truck slewed left accelerate and lane change to the right - bloody frightening
I thought rear anti roll bar - ohh no
t'was the far side lower control arm with half a bolt still in it the other half was resting against the shock mount (thanks heavens)
it would have been interesting if it had fallen out
This brings the trailering even closer
Regards Tim

Trailering is for the weak, man up and drive it Tim!

I've just put some photos on Facebook, and I'll try to link them through to here at some point. Jay and James, I was having issues tagging the right one of you in the photos, so sorry if some have the wrong name on!

jay140285 · « **Reply #97 on:** May 19, 2014, 09:47:20 PM »

Some great pics

Love this one
