Thanks for posting the photo's Duc, and thanks to Clell for getting me the horn. It is jury rigged at the moment as the original wiring seems to be for two horns, I think someone has modified the harness. I was in a hurry to get the horn installed so it got a quick tape job, but this weekend I will tidy it up and do a proper job.
Just for the rest of you guy's out there the guys in vietnemjeep.com are a good bunch of guys and like to enjoy themselves and like to eat and drink well. They are also a bit crazy with their jeeps, being happy to get them dirty or immerse them in water they also have a tendency to throw their jeeps at what I consider impassable objects until they either batter there way through them or over them.
This Sunday I had my first taste of off roading Vietnam style when some of the guys invited me to join them for a little testing as they called it so it was with some trepidation that I went up what to me, was a mountain but to these guys, a little bump, thoughts of what am I doing up here without a ROPS went through my head when the front wheels got a little light. But hell it was a good feeling. By the way the jeep went up that hill nice and steady with little or no wheel spin.
