DavefromOZ Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Yeah mate, this is WA, most of it is prettly nice. The Hummer guy isnt well liked in the offroad community here, hes a bit of a loose cannon, thinks he owns the dunes up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jadm4x4 Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 (edited) might need t look into joining pcoa (membership) and do some trips here. get organised before the weather gets better and not so last minute. I wish i brought all my camping gear with me now. but that fill's the trailer as it is. got a another proper email address to so im going to sign up for it aswell Edited July 8, 2009 by jadm4x4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavefromOZ Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Sweet, yeah, I think PCOA might be a good idea, try to get Adam in too, then start working on the WA guys on PCOA to join up also, I know there are quite a few of them. Spend winter getting ready, then try to head out oncea month come November. I still have the 4wd days out of perth book at home, might start scanning it tonight.

Cyril Posted July 12, 2009 Author Share Posted July 12, 2009 How long til you get your machine engineered mate? Seen the eleco on friday and got him to drive it so he knows what i'm trying to explain to him and his plan is to run a new fuel pump wire with relay to help it . Will take it back to him on monday . It's not booked in so he only looks at it when he can . The wheels and tyres for engineering ( passable offset ) is becomeing a headache . Once I fiqure that and the eleco has his bit right it's time for the brake tests and wieght test . Then the engineer to pass my chassis welds and it's done . Hows yours ?

DavefromOZ Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 Yeah, will need new tyres in the near future, and also need to find the disposable income to have the CV's done, havent really worried about them as I dont have the time at the moment to use it properly. We are hoping to do a run pretty soon, Matt (JADM4X4) is keen, pretty sure Adam will be as well. I know a couple of other Terrano drivers who I am pretty sure will be up for it too.

Cyril Posted July 13, 2009 Author Share Posted July 13, 2009 Still need to buy new tyres here to , was hopeing the mates 33's were ok to use for engineering but thier not so will have to buy some . Looking 33 x 10.5 x 15 , BFG muddies ( the crawler pattern ) , to get passed . Your Cv's , is it just the boots torn or are they smashed ? Can't wait for a trip .

I think they are beyond boots, need to do the full shaft swap, then rebuild the existing shafts so I have a backup set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you do the rebuild , see if they make CR MO ones or maybe a set from the wreckers to avoid any china ones . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maccdaddy Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 (edited) Haha I thought I'd jump in here too I'm very keen for a trip, when i can get time from uni, my timetable is intense. I've got only 2 hours on monday which @!*%s me because of all the travelling time then 9-6 for tuesday to friday. Few updates on the 4by: I got a UHF, aerial and a pair of Hella Rallye 4000 for free from my uncle The UHF is installed, the spotties are still sitting around.

Congrats on the score mate, you will have to let us know when you are on break from uni. If you want a hand installing the spotties let us know, Im sure Matt would agree, we can give you a hand , have a barbie as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
