Re: Andy Crocket's 4WD North Island - Still relevant

Apologies for the mis-spell

Thanks for the tips, I'll check out both of those books. I'm in the Manawatu, so interested in stuff that's lower-central NI

Cheers

Andy Cockroft's 4WD North Island - Still relevant

Gidday,
Am looking at purchasing Andy Cockroft's 4WD North Island, which was published in 2000 (not the 2nd edition).

Cheers
Phil

Tyre Comparison: ATs vs MTs (link to download)

I found this article on the (Aus) 4WD Action website, but it was very poorly formatted and hard to read, so I copied it all into Word and did a quick bit of re-formatting so it was read-able.

Re: Paper Roads, were do you stand??

Yep, you make a good point there. I guess all it's no dramas to me until the day I ask a landowner for permission to pass and get denied (for no good reason). Cross that bridge when I come to it I guess...

Gidday, Glad to be joining the ORE community. Just thought I'd add 2c worth of feedback. I love having the site to be able to connect with other 4x4 enthusiasts. One thing though there seems to be a hang of a lot of forum categories, and many of these have their last posts many months ago. As this f...

'On ya mate. Can't offer any advice on the camel cutting, but post up some pics when you're done. Also would be interested to have a look at the tread on the Nakang(...) tyres
