After realising what the locker has done to my Jimny I had to remove the tow bar. The car wont stop climbing :lol: and the tow bar was in the way.


Bolts were pretty rusty, heated them with the induction heater but one snapped off anyway. Doesnt matter i think it looks better without the bar

Locker releasing now?
It will be very noticeable even when it works properly when driving slow and turning.

Tow bars are in the way for sure, but sometimes also they can save your rear bumper.
There are different designs and some tuck better in there.

Had a leaking pipe suddenly, had to make a new. Boughy this neat little tool on ebay, one way valve so I can bleed the brakes my self.


Organized a little in the rear also, fitting some camping gear for the meet.



Tested the tarp the other day also, never camped this way before so got to practice :lol: not me in the photo

Regarding your tarpy tarp home. A little thing I picked up along my way, is getting a few of those telescopic paint brush handles ( www.biltema.no/bygg/maling/maleverktoy/r...skopskaft-2000017212 ), and tent anchors, to be able to build your tent even if you can't find places to tie it up. The handles are pretty good to make tent poles.
