Hi all, new to the site - from the coast (Whangaparaoa)

Post by LJ70kid »

Hi All,

New to the site; a little bit about me; I've just purchased an LJ70 stock standard SWB 2.4L TB. So far have 31" Maxxis M/T's and coil strings. Other than that, she is standard (Going to be the daily).

As a bit of background; I'm originally from the shore and old man has a baby blue FJ40, 35's, 50mm body lift, 350 chev etc etc.

We have done a fair bit of 4x4 over the years and started with an Isuzu Bighorn and have owned 3 FJ40's. In the last 2 years however we have "fallen out of the loop due to other commitments"..just wondering where everyone head's now? I can only really think of Woodhill and Muriwai unless you know someone?

Looking forward to your replies and potentially making some new mates/contacts.

Dan

Hey Dan,

Welcome to the site! Always good to see someone else from around Auckland join up - and I'm always keen to head out for a play so feel free to hit me up with a PM!

Welcome.

The best way to get out to more places is to join a club.

Within Auckland there's a fair few of them, but I'm biased for Norwest OHV :wink:

It's a great way to meet like-minded people, and go 4wding in lots of new places, without getting in trouble. :D

Hi Dan,
If you want to get involved with a club.
The Rodney Off Road Club meets at the Wade River Hotel at Silverdale on the 2nd Wednesday of each month.
Cheers Herd
