We got to the end! The front diff started amking some uber ordinary noises yesterday so we drained it and found all sorts of bits of metal in it. Made a decision late last night not to put a new box in it and try and nurse it to the end. Ended up making it into Hobart with no front wheel drive and no fourth gear. Damage was probably a remnant from our crash at high country in November.
All in all an amazing event on the most awesome roads.
We ended up 13th after dropping 2 places today in conservation mode.
Massive tick off the bucket list but what i wouldnt do to come back with a healthy car from the get go!
