AllOffroad 4x4 | Watagans 4x4, drowned truck, panel damage, mud fest and police visit @AlloffroadAu | Uploaded March 2020 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
4wd in the Watagans, on today's quite eventful 4wd trip. The first time we meet the Police in the Watagans. We have in attendance Kurt in the Nissan Patrol 4.2, Steve in the Landrover defender 110, John John in the Hilux, Adrian in the Hilux, Dave in the Jeep JK and myself in the Jeep JK. Next to drowning one car in mud due to the E-Locker issues, we also meet the police in the Watagans; one car gets some reasonable panel damage and quite a few more 4x4 adventures.

Embark on Part 2 of our comprehensive Simpson Desert Travel Guide on YouTube, where we explore the essentials for navigating this iconic landscape. We kick things off with a robust dual battery setup to ensure you’re never left without power. Next, we delve into the critical recovery gear every desert traveler should have, including a detailed look at traction boards and the pivotal question: do you really need a winch?
Our guide also covers practical advice for making your desert journey as comfortable as possible, from selecting the right roof racks and sleeping gear to choosing appropriate clothing. We emphasize the importance of respecting the environment with segments on UHF desert etiquette, desert toilet practices, and how to maintain personal hygiene in arid conditions.
Learn about the necessities of camp life, from managing campfires safely to the advantages of adding an awning or extra driving lights to your setup. Our guide also navigates through the technical aspects of desert driving, including tire choices, pressure settings, and the debate between manual vs automatic transmissions, as well as when to use high or low range gears.
We don’t stop there; the video includes tips on throttle control, how to handle chopped up dunes, driving on corrugated roads, and the best practices for towing a camper trailer. We also tackle the practicalities of dealing with rubbish responsibly and the precautions for encountering dangerous wildlife.
This guide is an indispensable resource for anyone planning to tackle the Simpson Desert, providing you with the knowledge to navigate safely and responsibly. Tune in and prepare for your adventure with confidence!

Im using a set of BFG KM3 on 37 on my Jeep JK 4wd as a play tyre for the past 18 months and here is my experience of how the tyres behave on Rock, Mud and a little sand, what issues I had (if any) and how I rate the BFG KM3 for technical 4wd.")

Landcruiser 105 Super Tourer Stage 3 Update. The 105 has now kicked over 300.000km and has gotten me in and out of some incredible places here in Australia. The Landcruiser has proven to be the most reliable 4wd touring vehicle I have owned so far. In this video, I will update you on what I changed and added since the Stage 1 and Stage 2 builds and tell you what worked and what didnt work. In Part one I discuss why I changed from Rapid Power back to M2K, which changes I made to the Cruisers Suspension and an update on my DCS LiFePo4 batteries under the bonnet.
