Well ... I had an educational and interesting experience on the weekend.
Went off on a 4WD Club Chrissy do to one of the local 4WD properties and decided to go on a bit of a trip with the lads, as I was keen to get a feel for how
well the front/rear lockers worked.
We head up this steep rocky gully (the type where it's usually easy to lift a wheel or two). After a minor error in judgement as to the correct line I find myself at a most alarming angle with nothing to be seen in front of the bonnet except sky and tree tops.
The blokes reckon I had the front passenger wheel so far off the ground they'd hardly need to stoop to access the sump plug for a quick oil change.
All ended
well with no damage, but it was certainly educational insomuch as I now know how
well lockers work ......... and also interesting in how long it took for my sphincter to release its grip on the
seat cover.
