Cyril Posted May 7, 2009 Author Share Posted May 7, 2009 For you Cyril, could be a half decent parts truck, might be worth a look at If that coin was'nt for the engineer it would be tempting .

jadm4x4 Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Jadm4x4 can you do that bargain again with the winch , PLEASE .i would if i could. I would have about 5o orders by now and one for the back end to. The fun was fitting it. Lucky i had some 6mm plate at work to weld onto the front bar mounts. But had to cut a fair bit out of my front bar and move the indicators down lower. I used led's so now they dont flaash right. Any sugestions would help and im doing a body lift soon so i have to refab it all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maccdaddy Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 LOVE Fishing , is it fresh or salt or both that you hunt . I don't think I've ever fished fresh water... I really don't get out as much as I'd like either, too busy with uni. What are you after??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing that you mean OZ Salmon , you don't eat them do you . Stockton beach is about 10mins from me and i love camping and fishing on that beach . Do you use alveys or thread line ? and whats your PB . I will be doing a trailer but not sure if the traditional type or a pathy conversion . Will be used all over OZ ( all climates and conditions ) so still not sure . Any ideas . i would if i could. I would have about 5o orders by now and one for the back end to. The fun was fitting it.

Any sugestions would help and im doing a body lift soon so i have to refab it all Bugger about a cheap winch for the rest of us . If your good at fab , just make a new front bar to match the body lift . I had 2 simalar to yours 1 alloy and 1 steel and by just removing the top bars it saved 14kg . Whats wrong with the led's . I don't think I've ever fished fresh water... I really don't get out as much as I'd like either, too busy with uni.What are you after??? I make my own lures for fresh , and i target estuary perch , bass and barra . Salt it's tailer , bream , flathead , squid , kingfish , jewfish and marlin . Am supposed to be leaveing on monday for a 7 week fishing and 4by trip but my 4by not finished yet so we miss out ( BUGGER ), it was 3 weeks in the gulf ( NT side below roper bar , at the limmen river ) and then dirt roads from mount isa to birdsville then the ood and strez tracks with west to east simpson desert trek . Just will have to do it later on . Was really hopeing on a black jew this time oh well will have to wait . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stockton beach is about 10mins from me and i love camping and fishing on that beach . Do you use alveys or thread line ? and whats your PB . Yeah mate, Oz salmon. We never really caught much when we used to go, just head down and fish & dive all day. Mostly tailor & herring (your tommy ruff) I will be doing a trailer but not sure if the traditional type or a pathy conversion . Will be used all over OZ ( all climates and conditions ) so still not sure . Any ideas . I posted a pic in an off topic thread about converting a pathy into a sleeper, there are also pics of an actual conversion Am supposed to be leaveing on monday for a 7 week fishing and 4by trip but my 4by not finished yet so we miss out ( BUGGER ), it was 3 weeks in the gulf ( NT side below roper bar , at the limmen river ) and then dirt roads from mount isa to birdsville then the ood and strez tracks with west to east simpson desert trek .

You should inclue a quick jaunt over here when you do you trip, we can organise a weekend trip down the coast for a fish & drink with Adam (Maccdaddy) & Jason (Comnthroo) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyril Posted May 10, 2009 Author Share Posted May 10, 2009 That's devastating mate! Sounds like an awesome trip when you get to do it. Yeh , was really looking forward to it . Will have to wait another two years for the Gulf trip as the people we were going with know the area really well and i've only done the Gulf once so it's safer to travel with them . Yeah mate, Oz salmon. We never really caught much when we used to go, just head down and fish & dive all day.

Have seen the pathy trailer thread , but am thinking of how to utelise a big tinnie ( 200kg ) into it as well . putting it onto the roof is the obvious but how to have full access to the rear door . WA is on the list , just not sure when . It would be Australias first NPORA forum meet . Just spoke to me girl and she said to see how this time next year goes .
