    Yeah was a bit nervous going in, ya know a few Butterflies but half way round the first bend i grabbed 2nd gear and just bloody drove it.



    Every time i felt the front come off the ground i backed off slightly to try and land gently (Thats how you brake stuff) (Landing hard on the gas) Have a listen to the audio of the GU braking the axle, he was on the gas when the wheel came back down and it just went BANG!



    Cheers Guys, Appreciate the wrap. Glad you like the vids and pics

    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.

    Lunch stop on the first day




    Anyone for Hot Pizza Subs??







    Anyone up for a River Crossing?? The Howqua River





    It got to his shorts just before the fast white stuff so we decided to turn around as there was a number of cars that had NO CHANCE of crossing



    Bluff Hut on Saturday Night was very very Welcomed. Hot Fire and Dry ground inside. Must have had 10 or 12 swags rolled out in there





    My camp that i shared with my 5yo son Zach
