D'oh!!

I forgot about that. Thanks Linc.

I dont s'pose anyone taped 4wdTV last night? I got caught out, and didn't make it home in time to see it.

Just to let you all know... There will be 3 segments of the Logan Challenge on 4wdTV tomorrow night. (11-12-07)

11 starters, 4 "finishers" (only 3 of which drove the whole run)

Won by the boys in the Bremer 4x4 Hilux on boggers. I'll post up the top 3 when I have confirmed with Shane (trip organiser).

Thanks to all that attended. Turned out to be a late night, I think I got home around 4:15am!! :shock ...

See you all at the finish line!

OK, cool. No worries mate. I may have one lined up that's already adapted to a th700, but it's in sydney. I'm hoping the guy is going to Woodpecker. If so, I will get him to take it to the event, and see if yourself or Brett can grab it for me.

Are you thinking this might be the way to go bubs? Certainly looks pretty easy. And, the front shaft is on the right side for the 75 housings.

Marsk's dont list any gear sets for the MQ box.

Wasn't some of the early F100's remote transfer too?

Hey Tony........... #@%& YOU!!!!

Cool, thanks mate.

Oh, did I tell you, that you are doing my coil conversion when I'm ready?? Wont be for about 5 or 6 months but.

Yeah, you did bubs. I'm just trying to get out of the $970 adapter kit if I can. I'm a tightarse.

It's going into a hybrid.

Main car = CJ6 Jeep. (101" wheelbase at the moment)
Engine = V6 VN Commodore
Gearbox = TH700-r4 (out of V6)
Diffs = 75 Series Landcruiser (to be on custom coil setup)

Length shouldn't be too much of an issue. How much extra length am I looking at with the remote setup?

or a mq devorced tx from a l28 wagon


If I were to use one of these remote transfer cases, what would I need to do? Do I still need an adapter plate? Or, just get a small jack shaft manufactured? If it is just the shaft, can I just use the original shaft that came out of the donor commodore, and ...

Thanks guys, awesome info. I've never had much to do with this sort of thing. My last conversion was all sorted for me by Rod Hadfield at Castlemaine Rod Shop in Vic. I emailed him with this one, but haven't yet heard back. So, thought I'd pick the OL brainstrust.

I have a TH700 auto that I need to mate up to a transfer case of some description. What is the cheapest option? I know Marks Adapters does a kit to GQ transfer for $970, but was hoping there might be a cheaper option out there.
It doesn't bother me what transfer case I use, as I will just buy one to ...

Hi Peter!

That would be awesome!! I'll PM you details.


Thanks mate.

Anyone else got any pics or vids?? I didn't get to see any of the action guys!

I was speaking to the boss of the company that was the naming rights sponsor of our club's major event, this weekend just gone, and his suggestion was this... As an "event sponsor", he feels that if all competition organisers set it in their rules, that each vehicle must have a 'reserved' section ...

Thanks Jane.

Big congrats to you and your team. A thoroughly desrved win.

We had a ball organising this year's event. It was actually exciting with the new format, and such. Mind you, it also put the stress levels through the roof. haha. I'm sure I will be there next year, in some capacity, but ...

Hi Jimmy.

Randall was down there on saturday, so he should have a heap of pics. He's also asked me to compile a bit of a story for Dirt Comp.

hi simon, thanks for a great weekend, whats the chances of getting a copy of the results for all stages? when will you be in to work?

Hey Craig. Yeah, I think Julie is working on some kind of a spreadsheet or something with the scores per stage. As soon as something is available, I'll post it up ...

Awesome video Tony!! Keep 'em coming. I didn't get to see any of the action, so any vids or pics anyone has, please post them up.

Awesome weekend Simon, Thanks very much for all your hard work.

Only 5 days to go!!

All I got to say is, navigators better bring their A game! Not so much physically, more for observation. Trust between driver and nav will be more important than ever.

Also, a friendly warning for anyone coming out. Watch your speed in the Warwick district. They seem to be ...

It is now. Law was changed a number of years ago.

Just to clarify, I would allow the spring over in the Logan Challenge, I can't speak for other competition organisers.
