Your post about closing of camps from socially irresponsible $%^&tards is straight after your post about being in the lucky country.... ha.The Clarence Valley council has just closed the Lilydale bridge free camp on the Clarence river.Toilets trashed ,human and dog poo everywhere ,dumped nappies,farm fences cut ,you name it,the bogans are alive and well.Too many vans staying too long.Cangai will be next.Alice up on the Clarence near Tabulum is another disaster.Looks like a rubbish tip.!
Anyways, so much work to do.
Checking the van bearings revealed brake shoes need replacing, well at least one wheel so may as well do them all. Van will now have new tyres, shocks, magnets and shoes. Kaymar with their short sighted rear bar design forces the tow hitch pin hole so far in that I suspect no hitch could align with it. I sourced a massive wdh drop shank to replace the more standard one on the Navara to suit my V5 wdh, but the local engineer refused to bore a new hole it it so did that myself and also welded up the Stone Stomper to suit so that's ready to go.
Under bonnet dual battery tray ready to fit today. I have to relocate the ARB and injector systems to accommodate it. The battery is ordered, Redarc BCDC on its way. Performance chip installed in the car, and new layout planned for the rear of the Troopy.
The brakes will fail, wheels will fall off the van, the hitch will snap, the battery will blow up, and the chip will melt the ECU .... looking forward to getting away
