    Another great vid, love seeing the high country. A group of us did Burgoynes in reverse on Nye, mates 76 series broke 6 axle studs on drivers side just after crossing creek before going across macallister crossing,. Wired the axle in with tie wire and crawled back to camp. River crossing was just over my Gq's bonnet. 2 hr trip turned into 5 1/2 by time we made it back to Macallister River camp ground.
    Got 76 drivable by 2 minute to midnight Nye. Slow drive home next day but best time ever.
    Can't wait for next vid.

      It's getting to the point where I would support a quota system and a permit to use the bush, similar to a permit to use a firearm. Education about the bush for before you use it. If caught doing the wrong thing, ie expired permit - confiscate vehicle as in hoon legislation. Just too many red-neck dik-heads out there today. No respect.@@4x4brothers
