I don't think you should be worried about them keeping you up...

They are not going in your regular 4x4s...

Could this be sarcasm?

They might be in our way and block us going up, they should allow us to lead.

Ok Goodnews
Adendorff Machine mart have sponsored some of there products
For us on our Trip
Each Vehicle will get a puncture repair kit
And I managed a exhaust Jack
Plus we managed to secure a nice tyre compressor which we will possibly test and or keep for a nice lucky draw for YEF

Thanks Adendorff

Martin and I have both got Adendorff winches on our Vehicles but Martin have on our recent Trip in Richtersveld on The Road To Hell returning up the Pass broke a CV and used his winch for more than 4 hours without missing a beat
So the Product was really put to test and made the cut in my book
