    I will bring as much hardwood as I can carry. I would be happy to bring a trailer load up to Brisbane for the Brisbane guys to take some if need be. Could even bring it in bags to make it easier for everyone. I sell firewood for a living so I always have a good supplyImageUploadedByTapatalk1367108227.242297.jpg

    I think I should test that wood before the Brisbane guys take some

    Short answer Healy is No mate. It is not just a set of springs that makes a trailer an Offroad Trailer. Bigger axles. Bigger bearings. Heavier draw bar. Heavier chassis. Stronger trailer.

    This great country is littered with 6x4 trailers that had bigger wheels fitted and fell apart in the middle of No Where and were abandoned. When it breaks we then have to figure out what to do with all your gear as we all already full

    Pack light. Buy an OzTent or a much better trailer. Sorry mate. Just the way it is. Got to keep It real!
    Its a Nissan! =====> Its a Keeper!! ....... Got a TD42 in it BONUS!! ....... I'm a lucky bugger! I've got 2 of em!

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    Hmmmm, decisions decisions, to bring the camper or not !
    With this many people going there is as much a risk of cars breaking down as there is campers( less likely the campers if they are full off road) ..
    I really don't know what to do, a year to think about it I guess!
