Don't budget on doing the chasm in the next few days! The grey was in full steam yesterday. We went through the chasm on Monday and it was low. We had one vehicle drive out of the chasm.

I was going to do extra cab and had the c pillars lines up but then I took the easy option as the roof at the c pillar was narrower than the b and was going to be more work so I just cut straight down the window line on the swb cab.

Yes cut down swb body on Lwb chassis. Not much room behind seats

This is how my one looks

Transfer cases are different, the driveshafts are not even interchangeable sorry.

Tailgate is quite easy to fix but tweaking the rubber mount to amke the door shut tighter. mine doesn't rattle anymore but my wife cannot open it its that tight! Find some good corrugations and you'll soon find the dash rattles :lol: , the really bad ones will turn your wipers on for you! I got my e...

Thanks Steve,Keith,twodiffs, I have worked out where green hut and tailing tracks are again, and the rest I am familiar with, time to make the paint a bit duller.

I have never done liverpool Bills, what sort of grade track is that and how overgrown is it?

NJV6

Hi chaps, Can anyone tell me if these tracks are still good to drive Montgomery Hut Mt Frederick, Denniston. What state is No name road & cockeye creek in? I am also after details of how to get to Tailings, I have done it before but cannot remember how to get to the start of it (with the intenti...

Last weekend after going on one of our longest off road trips (140km off road) we got one hell of a surprise to see a digger on the Old Man Range doing work on the track. For those that know this road it's very rough with deep water holes which often lead to vehicle recoveries, none more dramatic th...

NJV6

He won't need rated hooks or another vehicle. It's a track suitable for a standard factory vehicle. Just go when the river is running clear and low which is most of the time. Enter the water crossing slowly and there will be no trouble. Other option is to wait at the start for another vehicle to com...

Could you adapt a fox wing type to fold from the back and round the side?
What model Engel did you get? We are looking at fridges at the moment, dometic/waeco seem to be hard to beat price wise with smiths city farmlands discount.

NJV6

Nice tent. What model is that - I can't quite make it out in the pic.

You probably know this but you will need 16 in rims to clear the callipers or a large offset white spoke or grind the outside of the calliper down.

NJV6

The stubs are the same , the bigger brakes have a larger disc and calliper but the mounting holes are the same.

Let me know what the upgrade is like, I have a jtop set in the shed as well and have never got round to it.

NJV6

Sure is, that's why you always set a course easier than you think, as soon as you add a stop watch a medium course becomes hard due to red mist!! We did have one vehicle roll onto its side through driver error but the only way that wouldn't have happened would be if he stayed in bed!!

NJV6

Discussion ongoing I think, debating if Clubman should be non cage so beginners can have a crack, but then the courses need to be set very safe so no chance of rolls but its not really winch challenge then, more just a mudplug. That's a bit of a generalisation right there - a 'entry level' winch ch...

NJV6

Haven't you done the surf wide axle rear swap? If so I have one sitting in the shed.

NJV6

Do you have a knapsack sprayer or even a small 2 litre type pump sprayer? Buy some spider chemical from a rural supplies store (or maybe mitre10 etc), mix that up and spray it in door jams, mirrors etc and they will run out. It's what the fly &a spider control people use for houses and it goes g...

Looking good, - Im guessing 35s on the list with body lift?

It is a defender.....just depends on the year it was made....it was either a 110 or after 83???.... was badged a defender. Either way technically he's correct in calling it a defender as it is a 85 so defender by default. Yea na. Defenders didn't exist before 1990 so this is a Land Rover 110. Seems...

Yours is the NM (as opposed to the MN you typed) but like you I'd be very certain they are the same, assuming yours in not the GDi motor. But having clicked on the link I might not be so sure??

O right, your chair is heavy! A friend of mine has the adjustable rancho's in the rear of his kzj78. I have Munro's in the front of my Pajero and happy enough with them. Its soft enough on bumps but still a bit 'harsh' on small bumps, i don't know if this is due to the shock or just the suspension g...

If it was me I'd run airbags up the centre of the rear coils and use softer springs.

NJV6

Have a look under the bonnet and see what the build plate says on the line trans axle. It'll say something like V5MT1 4.875.

As usual, this sums it up "It only takes a few people to cause a lot of damage." Yea it sure does, the reporter was actually really good, there was a lot more I said that could have made it to print but there might have been a lynch mob at the door! A quick search on Facebook of 'mavora' ...

A while ago the new springs turned up, Lovells from Australia and Bilsteins. I was a bit nervous with how it would ride as they are bloody heavy springs http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v90/glen_nz/Big%20Paj/IMG_1424_zpsrh9hmw29.jpg Before http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v90/glen_nz/Big%20Paj/IMG...

The Solex carb was actually buggered. The emulsion tube was broken and not repairable, I guess the engine swallowed the top piece of the carb :shock: . I have replaced it with a Zenith and still couldn't get it to fire, a new set of plugs and within about 1 second it roared into life :D . About a mi...

There are not really any play areas in the region at all, not really the place for play areas given it hardly ever rains! However you can explore up the Hopkins river at the head of lake ohau and the Dobson as well, the Dobson requires permission but last time I was there they had no problem with us...
