The Hulk, 1988 300tdi winch challenge 90
My broken foot has finally healed!

So a Mate and I tinkered on the Hulk as the winches didnt work so I fitted the new soleniods from Durite and both winches are now working perfectly! love it when something goes well Smile

On the to do list of this rebuilt 90 is as follows

NSR wheel is leaking a bit so might need a hub seal?

Replace a indicator lense

Make sure it all has antifreeze in it and a general service

then off it goes for an MOT! 2008 Santorini Black 110 XS USW (Sold)
