4wd

[Gazbo]

I read it was ok to engage 4x4 as long as you were not over 50, and dissengage it at any speed?

[joker??]

alas joker my ridgeees are anything but cheap, swear to god i wish we"d just got a cat, they eat what they want, they sleep where and when they want, wa actualy bought a bigger corner suite to fit em all on.... (would"nt change em for the world on a stick tho )

allways wanted one of them ridgebacks but never ever got round to owning one , ended up with english bulldog . thai ridgeback . and rescued lab ,nearly took a staffy bitch of some little pr~ck in peckham the other day driving my lorry saw him kicking it at a telephone box , so lucky he was so young (about 12-13)

you have a thai ridgeback...! unusual hound, you dont see many in the british isles, not teaching you to suck eggs but do you know that their the only other canine (along with rhodesians) that have the ridge and are still widely believed to come from the original ridgey...the hottentot

a friend of mine was the first to bring to bring em into the country, my bitch (lamai)was out of the first litter bred in this country
the thai -ridge is believed to be about 6ooo years old,(ancient cave drawings)
they say that the hottentot dog is not related to the thai dog due to the travel capabilities of those times (who knows)
the thai dog has several types of ridges mine has a bowling pin ridge
they was once a royal dog in thailand(dont know nowdays
the great grandfather of my dog is on a thai stamp

Whilst on the subject: When I disengage 4wd the dashboard light stays on, and doesn't go off until I engage reverse and 'back-up a few feet.

Does this mean that until I reverse a few feet I am still in 4wd, or is it just the 4wd light that stay on?

no m8... flick yer button off and if you drive on a bit and the light still dont go off let off the revs and it will go off when your put the accelerator back on...

I have found that easing off the throttle usually turns it off, although it does take a hard or two to turn off.

thai doggies

i stand corrected joker, and i never knew the breed was THAT old, my ridgeys have only been going since the 17th century... (well not my actual ones ).... if you get a boy as well you"ll be able to tell the lads down the pub you own a thai lady boy (lame, i know) when my wife shows me how to work her computer properly (took me 3 hours to write this) i"ll put up some pics of my gang of troublemakers

Staying on the subject , My old 2nd Gen used to have a bell that used to sound if you tried to engage 4wd over 50mph.

[plumb bob]

I think you'll find thats the bell-housing making that noise if you engage doing over 50, he he
