I'm gonna try and make it if thats sweet?
I'l be in a blue landy, number plate UNSTUK.

Hopefully see ya there,

Aj

My Td5 Defender does about 10-11kpl on the open road. Nearly doubles if I go anything over 100kph. Have to cruise about 95.

Hey Rowan, At least two things wrong with the shackel idea. Firstly, bugger doing up a shackel in a bog or river with dirty running water and s*^ everywhere, and secondly hooks are designed to straighten if too much load is on it to minimise damage to your truck etc. No idea about the removable ...

Im really keen but not for the day after the Sevens .

Anyone else keen for Team Land Rover... Turoa???

Anyone heading up/down might wanna keep an eye out for this!!!!

Would be a nasty/dangerous surprise

Cheers, AJ

Hey, Been driving my Dads old surf around a bit. Its a 1991 3l v6 petrol auto thing. Its got a probelm in that sometimes the O/D light flashes (about one second on, one off) and the truck really lacks power. It has to be put into L or 2 to get up hills. Its been into the garage and they have done an ...

Im probably definately in....

Heres some more pics Dunno how I managed to get stuck here... http://www.offroadexpress.co.nz/images/albums/album223/Terawhiti_26_11_06_001.jpg PLAY TIME!!! http://www.offroadexpress.co.nz/images/albums/album223/Terawhiti_26_11_06_004.jpg Bubba chilaxing.. http://www.offroadexpress.co.nz/images ...

Thanks heaps to all involved. Was so good to get back into the four wheeling after a bit of a break. Ive got some photos but nothing too spectacular. No real damage apart from that guard I ripped off. Hope the damage isnt too expensy James. Looking forward to the next one!!! Cheers, AJ (Defender ...

Oh yup sweet.

So whats that showing??? Paper roads??? I clearly wouldnt drive up there if its gonna piss anyone off, especially the Terawhiti people but would be interesting to know who owns/thinks they own it..

Hey,

How do you put that in?? Juust into the search field???

If you have google earth its 41°19'46.99"S 174°39'20.98"E

Are you talking about the bog thats in the area where CCVC do driver training? Its the bay just before cave bay, as you go into the big puddle/bog place theres lots of places for practising failed hill climbs?

Yup thats the one

That track up from the bog is good times. If you follow the creek/track it comes to a nice little clearing with a few tracks around through it. Heaps of possums at night time aswel. Watch out for deep holes on the outside of corners in the creek. Its a tiny creek but could probably catch you out i ...

Im really keen if thats okay. Havent paid up my ORE membership yet but am in the CCVC so have hooks etc and nz4wda membership...

Havent been 4wheelin in Welly for a while as Ive been down south so would be awesome to get back in to the Welly 4wd scene.

Aj

http://www.offroadexpress.co.nz/images/albums/AJs-Landy/4x4_17_6_6_009.jpg This is mine. Its a 2001 td5. Ive got 285/75/16s on it with a 2" OME lift. Im a student so havent got a chance to do much to it at the moment but I finish really soon so am hoping to get a bit done shortly.

I’m sure you can all work out what Peter was saying and I completely agree with him. Thousands and thousands of hours have been spent on getting insurance and access etc for four wheelers by Peter and others in New Zealand, therefore I am not surprised if the association takes a paternalistic view ...

Im stuck at the Landrover stage dammit. My Lada stage ended when the steering failed and I ended up against a lamp-post.
Looking forward to the Toyota stage.....

Yeah I see your point but how many people are actually going to buy an E band radio. If you plan on doing trips around the country PRS appears to be the way to go. I live in Welly and am at uni down South so spend about half my year in Dunedin. I have ended up with a CCVC RT which is hopeless apart ...

Why would you want to talk to someone in Blenheim from Taupo when your four wheeling. When I go out we are hardly ever more than a few k's apart and prs seems perfect for this.

Jeees this place is helpful. Would have taken Landrover Dunedin a week and a couple of hundy AND the truck would have come back worse than before. All I can do for now is empty the oil out of the loom where it meets the ECU and do the wiring harness in a few months once Uni is over and Im back in ...

Yeah it looks like that must be the problem.

BUGGER

Any ideas on how difficult or how much $$$ to fix.

Hey all, Went out to give my truck (2001 Defender 90 td5) a clean before, and found about 50mils of oily water in the compartment under the seat. After cleaning it up found that it has been leaking out of the computer where the cords from the fuse box plug in. This would explain why every now and ...

Hey Turoa,

Where did you get yours?
Im trying to get hold of some for my 285/75/16's, think thats about 33"??

Cheers, AJ

Hey Nick,

If you can get hold of a program call iMovie which is for Mac then it would be simple to do. Its pretty good fun and easy to use.

AJ

My flatmates is for sale for about $4000 if your interested.

AJ

Im looking at some from this guy : http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motor ... 285503.htm Just want to make sure its all legal first.
Im getting mine to stop my tyres rubbing at full lock.

Cheers, AJ

Yeah if I had an Fj40 in Welly I would definately have it well off the street. They tried twice to steal my brothers and now its kept well off the road away from prying eyes. Pity my mate didnt do the same. Us landrover owners dont have these problems you see
