I can't remember if I said I was going to look at a lift kit or not so not sure if I am one of the two petrols without a lift kit. The V^ group will have to stick together and try and put on a good show.

According to your registration you have a lift kit! Now would be a good time to invest in one if you haven't fitted it already, some of the tracks at Bendleby can get pretty rugged!
Cheers Andrew
I put down I had a lift kit hoping that it would be installed before we get there so just seeing where the funds need to go.

Hey all, we will be travelling down from the Darwin area from about mid august to get to the GTG. Looking at staying off the bitumen as much as possible, sections of the Binns track look likely.
After the GTG we are staying in SA for a while and will be looking for work until Xmas. As I have experience driving tractors of all sizes, I was looking at doing some grain harvest work in the SE of SA and my wife was keen on weighbridge work or something. Anyone here have contacts in this field?
Thanks
Michael WhiteCan't we just keep travelling?

As for jobs, not sure about for you; but for weighbridge work its probably best to register interest with someone like Vittera, have a look here http://www.viterra.com/portal/wps/po...arvest_recruit I am not familiar with the grain storage companies in the SE but Viterra are pretty big around here.

Have been wondering if we needed to carry a jerry can of fuel with us. We are driving a V6 and towing a camper trailer. I am sure the committee has work this all out but would just like to put the question out there and hopefully get an answer.
From Murray Bridge, SA, we went via Gawler where we topped up with lpg (being dual fuel) then topped up again at Jamestown.
In September our plan is to go directly to Jamestown and top up with lpg and we will be able to do Bendleby and then head back to Orroroo where there is petrol available but no lpg with their being lpg available at Peterborough and Burra depending on our needs and how far we get on lpg.
We agree that there should be not need for a jerry can as we've been told there are heaps of locations to acquire go-go juice.[B]2003 GXL Burgundy Dual Fuel Prado[/B]

Obviously things would be easier if we were all diesels, as we could fill up at Bendleby at the start, and then at Beachport at the end. The thirsty petrols are holding up the rest of the group!!!Diesel Prado with various things...

Originally posted by Steve M View PostHi there Iantz, but things will work out equally, while the petrols are ploughing through the sand dunes the petrols will need to wait for the diesels at the other end LOL....................Cheers Steve
Can't wait for this to start, Can't wait to get all these Petrols and QLD'ers onto the sand at Beachport.......... I am predicting the largest number of bogged Prado's on a GTG ever
