I would be keen if it was out this side of Melbourne like the Wombat State Forest. I know where there are some old ruins and huts.

Was just thinking,
maybe we should post up what sort of 4x4 our rigs are capable of,
Dont want to organise something where people dont have fun or unable to get down certain tracks.

Hey Dan,

Looks like fun. Still havn't got a diff for my mates bj73 but when it's got one we'd be keen. Always good to go with a crew just in case.....

Are the above tracks in the wombat that rocky one looks familiar, i think we half winched it in the wet.

cheers
Paul

Yeah need the diff housing with wheel hubs and brakes. The centre and axles are still ok from the old one. Pretty sure any 70 series rear diff is good. As long as hand brake cable runs to the diff brakes not a tail shaft park brake. So any thing from a 70 73 74 75 should fit from mix 80's to 90. Is you HJ reliable now?

Sort of,
It has a habbit of breaking front cv's when i use the front air locker.
Also trying to keep up with maintence, as its old and gets abit of a workout.

Tried "get wrecked 4x4" in melton?
