Looks like MUD went SKIing, what a pretty picture with all the patrols.


Never argue with an idiot, cos he'll bring you down to his level, then beat you with experience. Y2K

Was a great trip,i got there about 11.00 and missed the drive,so i set up camp and relaxed.Went and did a couple of tracks on my own then met the rest of the crew.I then decide to go on the second drive for the harder stuff.First track with the V8 and what a pearler it was very steep rocky and LONG it went on forever.Got to the top and fuel was seen leaking from my car,released the pressure that for some reason had bulit up in the tank,lost about 10 litres.
Then went and played in a little bit mud then went back to camp for tea and a "couple" of drinks.
Was a great weekend and thanks to everyone.
Just can't beat a V8 in the bush LOVE IT.

[Winnie]

Was awesome meeting you Bloody and of course everybody else too. Pearler of a weekend.

[Alitis007]

Nice pics BLOODY when yous came back to came i could tell you all had a blast and it looked like you all went thru a dust storm lol

[Bloodyaussie]

Cheers Chris/Kris and chris.......??? there were a lot of Chris's.

For those that have not clean your air filters, I cleaned mine before I headed home as I was so down on power.

Boots was with me when I did it and he was shocked at how much there was, just gone and bought a new one too!!

I am still a bit sluggish so cant get the thought process on track to form intelligent bits of info as to the meet up???

The damage report was low for the most part from when I left at 7.45pm with me it was the other hub starting to leak (from the hill that does not end!!)

And for once did not rip off a wheel flare.

Most of the damage beside Mark throwing a tyre was people losing tail lights.. I think it was from mud forcing it's way from behind the lights and forcing them out the back to have them dangling.

It's a shame to hear Anthony has had some trouble and I hope it's not too bad or expensive, would like to give him shit for it being a 3lt but I cant kick him while he is down.

People will be starting to get home and letting us know how it got Saturday night as I think there will be a few sore heads!!!!!!!!!

Really have made some good mates on this trip and look forward to the next one hey guys!!!!!!!!! one more track hey!!!!!!!!

[Winnie]

Hahaha how good was it when we were on our way back to camp and AB was like "uhhh guys Aeroplane Track is right here....... let's go!" Another wicked track, was sloppy as all hell even after all this sun! Can't wait to go back in winter, my winch should arrive tomorow or Tuesday too and I think it would definitely be needed on that track in the wet.

Who came and did the hardcore stuff? AB, Bloodyaussie, DSPIES, myself, Turtle, Fletch, Healy, Rossco, Timbo, Chester and Darren.... forgetting anyone? Andy started going up this hill first and we were all waiting at the bottom for him to tell us he was at the top. All we kept hearing was "oh my god this is awesome... oh my god... jesus christ this just keeps going..." 5 minutes later "AB you at the top yet?" "oh my god no not yet still going." Actually took us all about 5 minutes to reach the top, what a climb.

[AB]

Awesome trip guys and girls!!!

Just finished unpacking now!

Great bunch of people!

Can't believe how dry it was up there, dust caked inside and out. Glad we did that second drive as I know we all loved that bit...lol...another run coming up soon I'm sure back up aero plane track in the wet...yihaaaaa!!

Should of waited to pack up camp ad the sun is blazing over here now....grrr!!

[Winnie]

Did anybody go out again today? I really wanted to but my front wheel bearings are knackered and were screaming at me.

[AB]

Darren and I were keen but the rain set in and my two girls looked unimpressed with the idea...lmao

[AB]

Thanks to fletch and sheps for an awesome cook up too!!!!!

[MudRunnerTD]

Well I just got home and finished an espresso. God that feels good!

What a great weekend. Fletch, Turtle and Crew did an Awesome job of the Cookup last night! What a great Eat! Best $10 roast I've ever seen!!

The drive yesterday was great but the second drive was we're its at for me!! Great climb. I enjoyed meeting everyone but have to say I was chatting to folks that have posted and did not know their user names here until now.....lol funny stuff.

Special thanks to Chris...... That covers it..LMFAO

I enjoyed getting dirty under Muski's car yesterday and I think we got some great footage (hope so) for 4wdTV.

After the rain this morning I hung around camp to dry out. I was dry, packed and driving by 12:30pm with Lunch in my hand and a 2.5hour drive home.

Great Venue, Great Mob, Great Weekend.

[MudRunnerTD]

Yeah mate we took it easy, stopped at a couple of places for a look see and rolled into Canberra a t around 4:30 odd. Was a pretty easy drive but I was hanging for a beer though ...lol
Was good to catch up again mate.....

[Bloodyaussie]

[Bloodyaussie]

Yeah I thought I had a week bladder..... Ab and Kris have the bladders of 2 year olds!!!!!!!!

[mudski]

I'll post the shots here aswell just incase the other thread dies...
Here are some pics I have of my great day. Not many as my dad was doing the shooting but here you go.
The zook will be up for sale if you know anyone who might be interested. This thing has a 2inch lift, twin ARB air lockers, ARB winch and bar and UHF. Goes anywhere this thing, but its way too light. If it were only me and him when my tyre blew out and had to be I snatched, I would have done it.
Big thanks again to everyone that helped me out that day, Darren, AB, and the dude with the eye piercing,erm, winnie?, also to the others who all stepped in. Sorry I am crap with names... It was my first time out in nearly fifteen years and when the time came, all the experienced showed that day from the guys who helped. I was totally blown away how the blown out tyre was fix and put back on. I would have just put my spare on and kept going. My dad who came along is 72, had never been 4wd'ing nearly shat himself at the Devils Staircase ( I think it was called) just as well it was dry as I would have too. I know it was easy going for everyone else but nothing pays better than experience.
My hat really goes off to AB for holding such a wonderful event, and running this great forum. I really can't wait now for the next meet up.
Now after this weekend I have just added a few more things to my wish list. 35's to be one of them so I don't get my diff's hung up on a bloody rut. I did feel quite embarrassed it happened. But on the final attempt to get out of the rut I was actually getting out with full noise and thats when my tyre slammed the wall and went BANG!

[Woof]

Looks like everyone had a great time, thanks for sharing with the ones who could not attend, I made this thread Sticky so it will not get lost and everyone can enjoy it.
Mudski, what happened to you is why we all go out together on trips mate and it may not seem OK to you, but we all enjoy helping each other out as it is just another part of 4WDing..........damn I wish that I still lived over East.

[mudski]

There's plenty of room back over here for ya!

Funny thing is with this "repaired on track" blow out. My truck doesn't have the 80k wobbles now! Must be the right amount of mud in the tyre getting the balance right. :)

Might have some mud in the tyre .... That's how they balance truck tyres ( just its rubber beads not mud)

[mudski]

Yeah thats what I was trying to say. The mud in the tyre has properly balanced it. But I still should get it cleaned out though.

[Alitis007]

Did you get a video of the repair ??? I would love to know how its done!!

[MudRunnerTD]

Did you get a video of the repair ??? I would love to know how its done!!


I dont think so mate but it is pretty easy to do. It looked pretty messy when it was in the rut but once the wheel was off then i saw the inside bead was in tact so it was a no brainer, reseat it and we are on our way. Just used a stick off the ground to clean the rim bead and the tyre bead then go the pump out.

I placed the wheel across a rut with the good bead facing down into the ground and then stood on the wheel. This forced the rim to push down and with the lower bead in place the tyre was forced up into the rim edge and we just pumped air into it until it held then got off and let the pump do the work. I poured some water into the bead when it wad holding air to make sure it was not leaking but simple stuff mate. Do be shy. ;)

[Alitis007]

Hahaha i thought u used the mud to make a seal between the bead and the rim lol at work we have this donut thing made of solid rubber to take up the gap on cheep wheels that are moulded with the beads close to each other. But before we had that tool we used to do that trick aswell as " persuade " the rim to meet the tyre on 1 side. I might have to get 1 of those donuts and some tyre lube to keep as part as my recovery gear hey..

[Bloodyaussie]

I must be honest Darren and please forgive me but I thought there seemed to be a lot of mucking about for not much????

But then I had a good think about it and thought yes I was wrong and you were right as it was a front the risk of damage was much greater to the rim and tyre.

I did the rear in exactly the same spot and just drove straight out but the affect to the wheel was not the same.

The one thing about recoveries is to never dismiss someones thoughts on the matter as this proved my ideas were wrong and if it was my car and I was one of those bozzo's that would not take advice it could have done much damage.

I picked up a couple of great tips from you that day from just standing back and watching.

My mates I 4wd with are all open to others suggestions which makes going bush with them a pleasure as there are no hereo's.

Cheers mate.

your not realy meant to use compressed air to clean them because it can damage the paper

Download a free program called Image resizer for windows. Once loaded on it will apear when you right click on the picture you want to resize. then it will ask you what size you want to resize the pic too. Then it just makes a resized copy in the same folder your pics will be in. Takes a whole 5 seconds to resize a picture. Great little program to use.

[Timbo]

Yeah it's a great program Mudski, use it at work every day. :D

good idea,any one else

[krbrooking]

I think what might be a good idea is each lead car goes up stops and films/ takes pics then falls back into the back of the pack, obviously experience and car capabilities has to be taken into account.

I got the hill climb a d decent on video but have sent it to 4wdTV already without looking at it. I'll let you guys know when it's on. It will be a while though as the current season is full of the Simpson crossing they did recently.

Love your work Darren I hope I am in some of that so I can see if it looks as bad as it felt as I was in front of you.

P.s really sorry bout stopping where I did and making you stop on that steep hill, I had no idea you were so close behind.

No probs at all, I had actually just caught you when you stopped. I was going to pull up where you actually stopped but you pulled up. I turned the cam off as I came to a stop so you are certainly in the vision, not sure what they will use though.

I actually put heaps of room between us at the bottom but did the climb in 2nd low so a bit quicker than you so caught you at that point. Nice climb it was too.

[krbrooking]

Yeh the old 4.2s have bit more torque than the 2.8s , there was a section of that climb I did in 2nd low though.

Thanks heaps man.
