Cape trip

Post by tampy »

Hey all,

I've got a 97 patrol GQ. Air locker up front and Stocky LSD in the rear. My question is do I need to get muddies to do a Cape trip? I have 6 (2 spares on carriers) near new 7.50 / 16 Dunlop Road grippers on there at the moment. The tyres are on splitties so changing for a flat is no probs! The Road grippers have done me well for all the driving I have done out here in Mount Isa 200 k's from the NT boarder (just in case you don't know where Mt Isa is).

Cheers

Yeah I know there has been a bit of rain around. Me and a few other trucks are heading up in about 7 weeks. Up through Normanton, then on the Bourke Dev Road, up to Musgrave then Coen etc.
