here are some photo's from today. It was a fun day for few hours we spent out there. Thanks to bryce for convincing me to do the little hill climb.... didnt think i could do it!

 

[Bvandermaat]

Looks like a fun day. Always better when there is big mud fields around.

I am keen for a trip in the first months of the new year as Rusty suggested.

Looks like fun. Where are these pictures of the almost rollover?

Rusty.

I forgot the D40 incident....Lucky god made D22"s! there is a small creek right in front, only the front tyre holding onto the rut for dear life!

 

[Bvandermaat]

Awesome.
Nice work getting it stuck like that Jimmy.
And nice work getting it out Bryce and Alphabet.

photos dont really do justice but there is a drop off of a few feet into a creek, lucky not to roll it! it was really slippery. i had a crack up the other side, got hooked up on a rut.... love my iron man bash plates, got snatched out by bryce. Ended up straight through the middle was the way to go after dragging the d40 out.

 

[Gonzo]

Gee Jimmy your starting to make a habit of getting snached out...............of trouble.........

2. its not my fault if the car likes precarious situations...

That's looked like loads of fun! I'll have to come down for a bash sometime! (after the Lokka is in)

 

[Bvandermaat]

How did you go with that Airbox Ray?

I love this picture as well. I'm guessing "GO RIGHT! GO RIGHT!" would have been yelled about then.

Ok who's keen for a run tommorrow? Glasshouse? I'll have the family with me so will be easy to medium stuff. Won't be chasing mud or lantana.

Ooooooh, so tempting! I'll be at caloundra to photograph the sunrise, and have a house to pack up when I get back to Brisbane.

I'd be keen for a ripley run in the 1st week of January.

what sort of photography are you into josh? I do as much motorsport as i can when home.

Still have to get stuck into that Brodie, have to work out how to securely insert the 2 air bypass hoses into the new silicone elbow. These things always take me ages to work out . I don't think you have these hoses on the diesels, pretty sure they are just a V6 thing.

I've been laying out under the nav for the last 30 mins trying to work out how these ironman bash plates go on. Theres 3 hooks that are supposed to mount on the front axle beam, I'm stuffed if I can see how/where. I always get stuck right at the start, .

Rusty, I'll have to have a look at yours, I have no idea.

Landscape and wedding mostly, haven't had much time for either over the last year or two unfortunately.

If you break something, Matt's Patrol will be able to tow you home.

 

[gunning1987]

Sweet might have to g up a day so you can show me some tricks for landscape

Most of where I have been is quite doable in a stock navara mate, it can get a bit rutted at times but generally not too challenging.
