@@360-Explorers By tools, I meant the seal puller for the rear seal. You should also get a common easy to find grease. You don't want to mix different types.
Our door lock broke 4 weeks ago at Cowell SA... So frustrating but a small thin flat screwdriver can open ya door...You work the screwdriver just like the handle..
Thanks for the comment! Oh mate it’s been a 3 weeks now using a small flathead and everyday there is less and less handle to grab lol. Should get it sorted asap now. Alice Springs had nothing in stock! It’s gonna feel like a brand new van with a handle.
@@360-Explorers I used the small screwdriver by inserting it into the mechanism and making it do that the handle would do... Bit tricky but can be done..I bought my new handle in Port Augusta for $162 i think...complete assy... Good luck..
You should be called "Wogs in the Bush"please don't take it the wrong way... By the way U need to start wearing your seat beat and yes your dog should have one on all the time even if it is a short way incase a animals runs out and you hit the brakes she gets hurt...U would never forgive yourself... Wood bag hanging to low so it has been hitting road... Thanks for bread idea would be nice with herbs init or pepper... Yes U can make a net for Stella with elastic measure head to collar with some room then get elastic thread it throw to stop flies attacking her...also she needs air on her in the back seat... I hope U show us Coper pede place U are at now...stay in a below accomidation it would be so cool... Were are U guys from Melb or Syd...???❤❤❤I hope U get your door handle...
Hahaha yes if I don’t wear my seat belt you’ll hear the car beeping crazy at me. The wood bag has been sitting there for 5 months with no issue but the rocks from the Oodnadatta track ripped it and therefore it started hanging lower than usual, so we’ll get a replacement soon hopefully. The underground caves in Cooberpedy were wonderful and cool but to stay there you’ll need a tent or swag.

How is your roller rocker suspension going on the dirt tracks. We have the same suspension, and you hear its ok, its not ok for such tracks. We want to do lap next year, and travel all the iconic road's We will also travel with our dog By the way, like your channel, realistic and honest.
Thank you for the comment mate we appreciate it! We have the J tech suspension which are shocks.. no leaf springs. They go alright, not amazing because the van does rattle a fair bit. But we want to do the Gibb river road and we’re still iffy. I’ve heard good things about the roller rocker with leaf springs. If you take it easy I reckon we should be alright. Mate, doing the lap is the best thing ever! Let me know if you ever have questions
Just read a forum post where they paid $91 for an unpowered site at El Questro !! We are heading up to Darwin shortly & as an example, Kings Canyon campground/CP is around $60 unpowered and so it goes on. In the big scheme of things, $28 aint so bad. 🤨
Jeez, $91 is crazy! We have heard kings canyon is expensive but we missed it. In Darwin, check out Coolalinga or Robbie Robbin’s reserve for reasonable pricing.
We were in Adelaide wondering what spares we should take? A handle would have been nice! Because now we’ll wait to get to Darwin. Might buy a couple I reckon. I feel like if we carried a spare, it’d never break! lol
i paid $48 for a tent site 30 years ago for a tent site at philip island and that was after he gave us a discount when i told him he won the prize for the dearest camp sit on the east coast
Track looked worth it imo, don't think the few problems are worth worrying about. The door handle could of broken while you were on a sealed highway, or in your hand next time you went to open the door. I'm a tight arse and think $25 and $28 is over the top when you don't need any facilities, I would of over nighted on the side of the track somewhere. Thanks for sharing your adventure
Thanks for watching Wayne! Yes, in hindsight it wasn't so bad! We seem to have avoided permanent damage besides a few stone chips here and there! Beautiful place and yes paying $28 for a bit of ground isn't ideal. Would much preferred a feed at the pub for double the amount!

New subscriber here...just watched this video and enjoyed it...i will try and watch more...keep em coming.
Thanks Matt. Appreciate the support!!
WOW, that was a lot of mud! Glad you got in after the handle broke off! Good idea to carry extra bearings, don't forget the tools and the grease. 🤙
Good call! I have just pulled a couple off and got the numbers so I can buy some spares! and some grease of course. Thank you for the comment

I love your videos flies and all
My dog Jack loves a sneaky 20m ride in the front cheers guys enjoy ❤
Thank you! She isn't a fan of the car when there are cattle grids around!
hope you had a good time good to see you stayed at Jason's (Ribas) and that was gypsum you found 😃
Yes, Ribas was great! we enjoyed our stay! CooberPedy was interesting. A Gypsum, we kept one hahaha they're super cool!

i stayed there about 2weeks ago
Have seen a fork used for broken handles in situations like this, ironically enoigh😊
That’s the sort of thinking we need, never crossed our mind lol. Everything does happen for a reason haha thanks for the comment
How long ago did you film this ?
Hey mate, this was filmed roughly 3 weeks ago I reckon.
@@360-Explorers ok cool
@@crewzincool why’s that?
Just because I’m going there in a weeks time . And just looking at the track conditions. I don’t think it has rained much since you went
Common problem with that particular latch. Travel with a spare.
We were in Adelaide wondering what spares we should take? A handle would have been nice! Because now we’ll wait to get to Darwin. Might buy a couple I reckon.

Hey John, that’s extreme for 30 years ago. Can you imagine what they’re charging now…. It’s getting ridiculous.
What a comment by Jayco... er, we dont know what bearings we put in your van??? Seriously?
Yes, weren’t very helpful. They use 2-3 different kinds so I pulled em off and got the numbers so hopefully can pick up some spares soon!

@360-Explorers free camp at a pub isn't cheap when you buy a couple of meals and drinks to support the pub.
don't you have a bed in the van
Yes,we have a bed, how come?
@@360-Explorers you looked like you were enjoying lying on the ground under the van and you showed it a couple of times. Ha Ha
@@johnpitt2742 hahahaha you’re not wrong mate! I’ll also be under the car today which isn’t ideal. But all part of the game
28 bucks for an unpowerd site is very steep
I thought so too, but that’s the way things are looking these days I think.
At least clean your side windows to see in your mirrors.
Yes, we did eventually when we had enough water. Thank you for the comment :)
