i'll see how things go i'm keen but i have no 4wd wheels at the moment

RoloverRover · Post by **RoloverRover** » Wed Jun 14, 2006 11:32 pm

I would like to but also in the same boat no 4wd wheels at the mo unless their is some1 in front to constantly tow me lol. I think it might be more than the bfg's can handle. If it is on a sat i could prob duck up to hams on friday night if ya get stuck for a tow wopass. At least your trip their would be in style!!!! lol.

Hey Rangielux is this the sort of place like most forestry blocks in the country were you would be doing loops in and out of the bush onto gravel if so i would happy to be a spare shit wagon to help out im in a 109 landi with a wellside and since i dont have the rubber to do the bush

could i be usefull as a transporter of stuff.

Rangielux · Post by **Rangielux** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 8:30 am

Plenty of loops and escape routes, never far away from a 2wd road, plenty of bits that you would get to have a play on with the landy. Takes a wee while to get there, but once there it's like a "duck" to water

Will sort out how to get the cruiser there with ya Ben. Gimme a yell if I'm any use to ya at the weekend to get it sorted.................. :wink:

Would be keen since I didnt make the trip in photo.

DieselBoy · Post by **DieselBoy** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 11:29 am

How are you going for numbers RangieLux??

Could be a group of four of us heading down from Ham's, six if Madaz and Nath come.

That could lead to a pretty big group, is that gonna be ok??

Its still dirty from the Wires Loop :lol:

Madaz · Post by **Madaz** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 5:00 pm

It would be good if the guys from Hamilton could meet you at the start of Waitaramona road cause this shaves about 70km off the trip for us.

wopass · Post by **wopass** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 5:43 pm

im planning on taking the turn off at waikeria and following that basikly all the way through to ngaroma, i have no idea where im needing to be down there as ive never been over that side of pureora, hey madaz, seeing as your just around the corner,do you wanna maybe do a convoy type arrangment to get there, sounds like you know where your going ? i had a look on the map and the Waikeria road goes basicly right to it ? best way maybe ?

wopass · Post by **wopass** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 5:56 pm

Are you sure it takes 70k off? Ham guys could turn off at Kihikihi then Rt. at Parawera :?:

You still have to come down past Mangakino & back up SH 30 tho.

Where ever suits tho guys. The start of Waitaramona rd is off SH 30 opposite the Pureora forest headquarters (50mins when towing south of Te Kuiti). Unfortunitly access from the Ngaroma end is not possible.

Not too worried about numbers yet DB. Can do 6 in a group and maybe two groups me and the other tougher trucks in one, Wopass and the rest in an easier group :wink:

Rangielux · Post by **Rangielux** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 6:10 pm

Na off the bottom of that Wop (that's too easy

), I'll try to do one for ya

Madaz · Post by **Madaz** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 6:14 pm

Yeah, we normally turn off at Kihikihi and come down past Mangakino.
On the trip that we were ment to come with you King country guys we ended up coming down via Ranginui Rd.When we couldnt find where you were we went back to Whakamaru for lpg and it was 90ks from there back to Hamilton.

Madaz · Post by **Madaz** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 6:17 pm

Yeah us Waikato guys probaly need a easy trip.

Rangielux · Post by **Rangielux** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 6:54 pm

You'll be in a white Zook then ?

Madaz · Post by **Madaz** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 8:22 pm

Yep.
Have been to hard on it so no more broken bolts.

Rangielux · Post by **Rangielux** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 9:37 pm

Either way you like (more coffee stops :shock:

Oto/Tkt/Bennytown). I've gotta go thru Bennydale from my end but Madaz will know the other way from Hamilton

wopass · Post by **wopass** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 9:42 pm

ahh ok, so basikly we going to the forestry HQ ? if so i think i might go thru tokaroa/whakamaru/mangakino thru to HQ would be quicker i think for me and pete. got my drive shafts and gearbox mount done today so im getting pretty close to finishing the missile

sounds like it would be a great day and a good place to do a shake down on the new mods.

....if i get it all finished in time that is :wink:

Madaz · Post by **Madaz** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 10:36 pm

Do you want me to leave the belt off the supercharger????

wopass · Post by **wopass** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 11:05 pm

just leave it in 1st gear mate :wink:

...

you trailering truck or driving it down ? im still thinking about goin thru tokaroa way, straighter run, more kms but might be an easier drive towing the missile.... dunno

Madaz · Post by **Madaz** » Thu Jun 15, 2006 11:12 pm

Dunno yet, probally drive it down.
Im trying to sell it so I might have to be a bit more careful with it this time.
If you go down the way Rangielux and I are talking about it only takes about a hour as the Suzuki flies.
