Sorry to see the chain is not up to your requirements. Must have been a beatch getting it all in there in the first place. These things are sent to try us but it will look the DB's once done this weekend.

Cheers Steve, I just can't let the bad rope go so it will have to be replaced.

Hi Scottie
Great stuff. I am sure you will sort the rope to your satisfaction.

Thanks Jim, I hope so

I have changed the winch rope and although not 100% happy it is an improvement.

next the engine and PTO have had an initial weathering and been added to the chassis. More details will be added as the build progresses. Finally a top water hose has been added, strangely not included in the kit.






I have just noticed I have left the cooling fan off!!!!!
cheers

Yeah I hope so too I should be able to get it in. I found a bit of twine still a little over size but better than the first and second attempt.
