    Top Vid Shad!
    Some killer spotting skills on firetruck, correct use of PPE while using a chainsaw... LOL.
    Improvised ala-cart menu,
    and a killer camp-site that is constantly visited by disrespectful grubs that could ruin it for everyone.....
    Not to mention a well thought out camera placement relay both days.
    As you said.... Good Fun! 👌

    Firetruck looks a bit gnarly. Don’t think I’d like to try it by myself or without a spotter. Campsite looks great though.

    • @shaddonaghue

      @shaddonaghue  Рік тому +1

      Hey mate, I don’t log and tracks or keep any record i just drive around 😂😂. I do know that area fairly well though.
      We just came in from rydal side down and made our way to firetruck hill ( it’s actually marked on google maps ) then at the top we headed down to the right making our way to the river , then basically following that track around the back of the lake , there is heaps to do in there as well , like more tracks etc 👍👍. Head out for a look around and you’ll find it all and maybe more 👍.
      Cheers shad

    Top video as usual. Some of those trails have certainly changed since I last did them last year. The rain has changed just about every trail everywhere!
    I don't own a Hilux so can I ask what that A.D.D. (I think you said) unit is that is giving issues?

      285/70/17 tyres, not sure on the rims , they are 17s but not sure on width an offset.

      @stp4x4 Рік тому

      @@shaddonaghue cheers for that. Did he have to do any chopping or move the front castor forward? Running 265/75/16 on mine, would like to go to 285/75/16 just not sure if they will fit. Have an adjustable 2 to 4 inch lift, so hoping it will work. New to all of this, lot's to work out.

    Makes me upset and angry when I see rubbish like that in the bush! I just hope if we all do our bit and clean up what we can it’ll keep these tracks open but it shouldn’t be that way! Top quality clip Shad and Owen. 🤙🏻

    • @shaddonaghue
      @shaddonaghue  2 роки тому +1

      Thanks for watching mate, yeah unfortunately a lot of grubby campers around and all we can do is chip in too clean a bit up where we can. Not sure what the garbage truck driver thinks everytime he empties my bin 😂😂😂.

    Bottles should contain explosives so stuff happens when they're thrown in fires. They'd only do it once.

    Awesome episode as always mate. Can't stand it when there's rubbish like that left, good onya for picking it up. Real shame we have do that. How did your mate Owen's Drifta go? I'm thinking about getting that one and was wondering whether he liked it. The low weight is really what appeals to me, wondering what Owen's thoughts are on it?

    • @shaddonaghue
      @shaddonaghue  2 роки тому +1

      Thanks mate , yeah the rubbish is a bit annoying but I don’t let it worry me and ruin the weekend, just pick it up and continue along. Owens tent is only new and that was his first night in it , he liked it and yes its one of the lighter ones so better on the roof. So after one night he is happy with it.

    Love the video mate! Good little bit of action and wheel lifts. Bummer about the burgers but athletes like you don’t need the carbs. Great area with everything you need in the one spot. Question - when are you doing the front live axle delete in favour of a Hilux IFS running gear swap? You must be stinging to get one back on Owen who always makes tough tracks look easy

    • @shaddonaghue
      @shaddonaghue  2 роки тому

      I had plenty of carbs stored nice and cool in the fridge and got my car booked in with Sam eyles for the IFS swap out , should be good after that hopefully
