hi all - Chuggy here

[chuggy]

just found the site today - hoping its gonna be of some help in our never ending efforts to keep our cruisers running!
we run a lodge and game reserve in the Tuli Block of Botswana.
We have:
80 series VX station wagon with its top cut off to make a game viewer
80 series GXL station wagon with its top cut off to make a game viewer
75 series Cruiser with a 2F engine - again, its a game viewer

we have minimal stock of parts, minimal tools, minimal knowledge and a whole heap of dust and sand flying around
the vehicles drive off road permanently ...PROPER off road.

The cars dont run too badly, but maintenance is a mission and I cry a lot

you guys have already helped today with a step-by-step hub rebuild ....THANKS!!!

Hi Chuggy welcome.

Sounds like the trucks earn there keep. I imagine they are the best tools for your job.

Welcome Chuggy, you've certainly come to the right place for advice on maintenance, some pictures of your Cruisers in action would definitely be welcome too. We like pics.

Hi Chuggy and welcome, I used to run a VX when I lived in Gaborone but fortunately Mr Dada at the motor centre used to service mine....

Hey Chuggy, welcome - we're practically neighbours. I'd love to do a tour of Bots some time.
