Already have one lined up! I don't muck around

I'll troll through my camera (I didn't get much) and put them up once everything is back in working order.

Thanks heaps to everyone who helped me today, word's can't describe what it meant! Especially seeing as I have no clue when it comes to mechanics

A great many thanks to Magpie and family for hosting another fantastic Dodgy Day.

Thank you to the turnout guys and girl.

More photos to come tomorrow.

You know what tops of this Dodgy Day?.... I forgot to hand out the Dodgy Trophies.
Dodgy indeed!

Well I've temporarily fixed the flex pipe. It no longer sounds like a tractor when idling, I'll know about the highway drone later. Muffler bandage and UDL can did the job. Hopefully it will last until I can get a new flex pipe put in.

What is that made of? Looks like a fire hazard!

It's some sort of plastic LIKE stuff, but it is designed for the purpose.

So at 3:30pm this afternoon, dodgy day finally finished

Much much much thanks to Magpie for towing the ol' girl to mx5plus.
I'll let you all know of the outcome once I know more tomorrow.

Happy to help. The 5 yo is happy as well as he is now having macdonalds (and a coffee kick) for dinner. The trailer towed very well and the Amarok performed its task without breaking a sweat.

Dodgy day rules, no wiring, no roll bars, no clutches however non MX5 spoilers and stripped nuts not a problem.

I can honestly say I had a good time!
