Woods Point weekender MEDIUM

Woods Point, VIC
See more trips

Test run weekend for the Hilux.

Basic plan camp out at Big River Friday night, Saturday mosey over to Woods Point via the harder lines unless something falls off, chill Saturday PM around a campfire prolly at Scotts, Sunday roll out via Old Coach, Abbot Link, Jerico, and that track near Violet Town that goes up behind the Thompson Dam, nice spot to stop for lunch and the view, then home Sunday PM via the gravel.

Should be a good trip :-)

This is true I can be riordak_ranger 2 when luxing.
Lux has no front locker which I'll have to drag my sorry bum into looking at this weekend I sort of just walked away from it the other day in frustration.
And I've got to lengthen the drag link I want to change the geomerty the pitman arms moves through handy having access to trained engineers at work to help me trouble shoot :-)
PS I might take Friday off and head up early get a fire going

Front locker works if you bypass the wiring so its a fault between the relay and the diff housing phew. Had visions of having to pull the front centre out not something you'd do for laughs. Anyway, booked in at the autoelec Thursday for a wiring trace and fix :-)

Talk about 'putting the band back together' welcome aboard Julius and Rick.
I'm heading up Friday morning-ish so will bag a spot and get the fire going. Got the front locker fixed (fuse fell out of the holder, duh)
All we need is better weather than forecast now !

Hi Alex and crew, it’s been a while. I found myself with 3 days off this weekend. Thought about driving Haunted Stream track but there’s a fire near there. Jumped on the site and I got the last spot. Must be fate. It’ll be nice to see you all again.

All good 'Big Kev'. Drones are good fun but you need to continually practice as they take some getting used to.

BTW, hope you all have a good trip.
