Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I thought I'd post this in the Daihatsu section rather than Trips and Tracks, as it concerns Daihatsu's only.

A few guys involved in WARFS have organised a day trip this Sunday to Gembrook. I'll be there, so will Marco (and Robbie) and Jason.
Should be a WET day, lotsa fun slippin'n'slidin.

If you wanna come along for a play, we're meeting at the Gembrook Railway Station at 0900 this Sunday.

Will have plenty of pics to follow

its going to be pretty wild!!

:shocked!: :shocked!:

nice pics

u got any more of that Red zuk?

Sorry no more pics of that Suzi

But it is a very nicely set-up SWB, with 1.6EFI conversion, SPOA, Twin T-cases, 33" Claws - The only thing that it lacks ATM is lockers, and they are coming soon. Vehicle always kept in showroom condition, but he wheels it hard !!

Looks like you all had fun.

Besty, I noticed the rear smashed (?) window and photo title "inspectingdamageafter360siderollover".... Did you actually roll- there doesn't appear to be much damage?

Also, who owns the white Feroza on the left in the first pic; it doesn't appear again in any of the other shots?

YES I rolled - happened slowly. Driving down large ruts, front tyre grabbed side of rut, ripped steering wheel out of my hand and started driving the front up the rut. So, I stalled the engine, straightened the wheel and 'keyed' it.............

FARK.........almost broke my wrists again as the steering wheel was ripped out of my hands and the front tyre drove up the rut..........

End of story - laid on drivers side, but side angle of hill that we were on, kept me going over on roof, passenger side, and then it landed back on it's feet !!! I was lucky it didn't keep rolling down the hill !!

Damage =
Both rear windows popped out and smashed, dented roof (B-pillar) passenger side only, small crack in windscreen, dented rear 1/4 panel (by fuel filler), dinged bonnet (from bar hitting it), cracks in both rear flared guards and one very shaken passenger !!

Minimal damage considering the situation

The white Feroza belongs to Marco from this BB - Robbies brother-in-law. He doesn't have a computer, rarely gets online, but messages are passed on to him !!!

Dude! You rolled again! Geezus mate, you need some 3 foot wheel spacers

At least your okay, most important thing...nice pics, good to see the Feroza's in action 8)

he,s only officially rolled once !!!!!!

the last time was just a lay over !!!!!

man , I saw it go over , talk about s l o w m o !!!!!!

just glad it stopped where it did !!!!
funny thing , he was getting to the top section of a really good rock climb , to be a recovery point !!!!!!

Well..........this technically is the first time.......the previous time I just laid it on it's side.

This time.....much more spectacular......complete roll !!!!

Not sure if wheel spacers would have helped.....just one of those things.....that 'surge' you get after 'keying' it certainly was the thing that put me over

technically speaking , there was the opertunity for it to happen earlier in the day !!!!!

4 wheel slid down a hill !!!!! with only trees at the bottom !!!!!!

overall , a greatday !!!!! Zooks ruled !!!!! again !!!!!


even doing a slippery down hill , into (almost through ) a big boghole !!!!
in 2wd !!!!! selected 4wd & drove out !!!!
