    Leaving for the Canning in about 3 weeks. Single vehicle, given the CSR 3 weeks to complete.

    Been preparing for this for 40 years.

    Still considering, 1 spare or 2? Space is a bit of an issue.

    No one seems to get punctures anymore. Running a set of Kenda Klever R/T's for about 1 year. Did Arnhem land with them last year. Brilliant in sand. 10ply. Bit noisy on road. Can't fault them really.

    Got a tyre repair kit and will be running a TPMS for the first time. Don't know?????

    I would take just a tyre if you are confident/able to swap one over or carry a rubber vulcaniser patch kit and a tube would be my recommendation and what I have done successfully in the past.

    That's some good thinking PB. I'll toss that into the consideration pool.

    G`day 10G.
    Did the Canning a few years back towing a camper . that trip involved the Tanimi , the Bungles and numerous side tracks.
    The canning was done in around three week and we found we could have spent another week out there. OK tyre wise.I just stayed with the standard spare both on the Patrol and camper, carried a good puncture repair kit including patches for the inside of the tyre, also a tube, OH and a good set of tyre levers. As for the trip there were some six vehicles ,two of us towing and no one had a puncture. We did have the odd breakage, one leaf spring on a trailer, this was repaired using two batteries in series to weld it together. That held together all the way back to Adelaide.
    Punctures are not a problem its the corrugations, slowly slowly is the way to go.All so low tyre pressures 16 to 18 PSI.

    Hope this is of some help. Bugga wouldn`t mind doing it again. So much to see.

    Yep, that all sounds like the way I'm going to be tackling it, nice and slow. We're giving it 3 weeks to complete, which will include rest days and trips off to the side. As the track's been closed for 2 years, people are reporting that the corrugations have disappeared! I'm hoping they still have by the time we hit the track.

    Never change mate.

    Next meet show him your shotgun/rifle collection.

    And give him a wink and a smile.

    What is the charge? Eating a meal? A succulent Chinese meal??

    Haha, thats something like what I did with the grand daughters suitor. First time I met him I asked if he wanted to come out shooting with me, told him I'd show him what a good shot I am. Grand daughter was horrified, told me later she couldn't believe I'd say someything like that.
    They are still together after 8 mths BUT he's wary of me (it worked).
    Cheers
