Then I called my mate Alan Mathews at Don Kyatts in Melb and he sourced Jap axles and CVs to suit and is dropping them off at home tonight. You're tops Al. Guys - if ever you need Toyota Parts you just can't go past the team at Kyatts for expertise and service.
Thanks fore the rap Hobzee. Glad to be of help. Happy you can get them up there with help from others. Would hate to have paid for the airfreight to that remote location.

a 'lil whistle while your 2H works...
you have had some fun when you have clumps of mud on the roof...
Hey all. I can't wait to get out there and have some fun agian and I won't even mind all the flack for being Max Baelochers winch bitch in his JEEP. yep you heard right lol. Thats how much I miss competing.
All the best for this years event. I am sure Hobzee and Rudi will put on another great show. Miss not being there but Paris is calling, need to show the frogs a thing or two about 4 x 4 Aussie style. See you next year Rangie Racing Gary Good luck to the SA boys - Tim, Tom, Paul, Jay, Paul and Brenton
Quote "There is a lot of water here this year. So much so it has become a problem. Much of our favourite creek is still totally under water, even at base camp - pics tomorrow."
Come on hobzee bring on those photos, for those of us that haven't left yet we are hanging out to see them and the water.
see you wednesday
cheers

just had a word the the copper in Ivhoe the Cobb hwy is open now but if they get any more rain they may shut it so if you are heading that way it may pay to give them a ring. they gave me a number to ring if you can't get them it is 0880915155. please ring one of them as it is a long back track if you get there and the road is shut.

Interesting, thanks for the info and please post up any further updates if you can. We were planning on heading up early Sat morning but may have to change plans depending on road closures.

Just what we needed, puts another 200klms around the other way.

no need to panic, just logged onto the weather site and their is no rain predicted for Ivanhoe, Wilcannia or White Cliffs for that matter for the next 7 days.....
Then again, who trusts the weather forecasters!!!!!!!
Been quite warm here, especially at nights, not too cold at all... the whole week is also predicted to be the same.....
Had huge dust storms today, no wind tonight all settling down now!!!!

Hi guys. Can't wait to get there. First time for team Tint A Car QLD we can't wait. The climate might be slightly different to what we're used to but so be it. See you all there......................GO QUEENSLAND,,,
THANKS TO: 4DT (Skidsy), Weller Auto Electrics , Just Tinting , Tough Dog , Fourbys, RMD Fabrications ,Neilsen Smash Repairs & all family & friends.
A few words and pic hobzee asked me to post up for you guys heading up!
"Hilux still way out woop woop at 100th waypoint with new studs and king pin bearings coming in today. Will fix tonight or tomorrow once we finish stage set up - only 3 to go. It pays to maintain your vehicle."
The road to camp is an excellant dirt road ( better than the maintained RTA Cobb Hwy from Ivanhoe to Wilcannia )......
Trucks,caravans, trailers all good and easy to get into camp....
Speed limited to 40 km please, and as you approach camp down to 20 kph to supress dust and stop the track breaking up......

all stages now set up and we are looking forward to a great event.
Today is housework and I fix my swivel housing. Tonight Johnno rocks up from Silver City in Broken Hill with the rest of the parts I need so I can go out woop woop on Sat and get the car back. The Silver City guys to the rescue AGAIN - thanks guys.
2nd lot of marshals rocked up last night and I think tonight's camp fire will be bigger again.

Know the feeling Mal, Jason had the truck on the dyno last night and discovered we have no rear brakes, calipers were ceased. We recon they may come in handy at some point of the comp so all fixed now.
