Join 4WD TRIP - Toolangi rocky tracks (FauxBogan)

Toolangi rocky tracks MEDIUM / HARD

Toolangi State Forest, VIC

See more trips

Trip changed to Friday as Saturday is too hot.
I plan to do Rocky, Lyndalls, Reds East, Cockpit, Not Much Help and a couple of other fun tracks. I recommend lockers, lift, aggressive tyres and experience. If I feel your truck isn't up to the task I may suggest you come out another time on an easier trip.

What tracks are you planning to do? Last time I ran a hard trip there it was a day of carnage with busted CV's and diffs...
2 Discos escaped unscathed, just, and 2 Toyota's and 1 broken Jeep on the first hard track :-0 with our fair share of winching

31 Dec 2016

Jason (FauxBogan)

Basically, come if you're experienced, have a tough truck and are not going to flog it and break crap. We're doing the toughest tracks I know. Ideal setup is tough twin locked solid axle on 35s. No rooftop tents or fully loaded trucks either. Most of the tracks have B-lines too.

31 Dec 2016

Matthew (discomatt)
Sounds good to me, I love going out with cars on 35's and twin locked ;-)
It was Aeroplane that bought us unstuck last trip, it had been destroyed over winter by cock suckers driving closed tracks, it was the worst I have ever seen it by a long shot.
The toughest track out there has been closed, DSE dropped a heap of trees over the top section

31 Dec 2016

Jason (FauxBogan)

They closed aeroplane?! Only that one section was really chewed out a little while ago. Pity; they could have just filled the one hole.

31 Dec 2016

Matthew (discomatt)
No not Aeroplane, that's certainly not the hardest track at Toolangi , they closed Walking track, Lyndells track is still open so a very steep climb there and the hard line up Rocky track is now the easier line, not that there is anything easy about it.
Aeroplane has some big holes and some steep clay sections that are pretty slick

31 Dec 2016

Trav (dungarover)
Put myself down as a starter, I was one of the 2 discos that survived Matts trip (was a good day despite that and first test of the lockrs, etc..). I mightn't have 35's but after a couple of trips to Toolangi 33's and twin lockers seem to get the job done for the most part. Trav

31 Dec 2016

Jason (FauxBogan)

Walking Track/ Reds East was the main track i wanted to do. 😠

31 Dec 2016

Trav (dungarover)
Sounds like fun, look forward to it. Trav

Jason (FauxBogan)

Yeah, you'll do well I'm sure Trav. See you soon.

I'd love to come on a trip like this sometime but I need to get some more experience and get my vehicle setup a bit stronger. Nice looking jeep Jason:)

I've done a bit in that area when I had my GQ ute and was running 36s and locked so did all the hard stuff. Was a few years ago now... I have the 79 dualcab now, locked and winched and on 33 atzs. Hoping to pick up a set of 35s this week if I can...

Hey Jase, thanks again for running a trip in year 2017! .... for those you have never met jase, he is one of our best trip leaders, with over 30 trips under his belts..... you will be in good hands.....

01 Jan 2017

Matthew (discomatt)
A trip I ran there a while back we tried walking track, I went first just to see what condition it was in and only got half way up the tough section, backed down a bit had a couple of goes, changed lines but could not get further without winching, called up a Patrol running twin lockers, 4 inch lift, 37 bead lockers...
He only got half way as well so we called it a day for that track because I didn't want to winch 6 cars on one track for 2 hours

01 Jan 2017

Matthew (discomatt)
Rocky Track would be the most technical track there now, some good stuff down near Pauls Creek Track but all the good stuff down there was closed last trip with only one easy/medium climb that got us thinking a little bit or start at Toolangi and head over toward Strickland Spur. Not Much Help, Lukes creek aeroplane and blowhard are always interesting

01 Jan 2017

Jason (FauxBogan)

Guys, the place is a great place to drive; I'm sure we all have war stories but I don't think the trip requires this much hype. We're just going to cruise around and try some good tracks. We'll work together and hopefully nothing breaks; every trip has its challenges. See you all soon.

01 Jan 2017

Matthew (discomatt)
No "hype" Jas, just posting some of my recent experiences from recent trips.
As far as needing 35's na not at all, 33's are plenty big enough to get through the place, I manage on 32's, its not clearance so much as traction on 99% of the tracks

We were there last year 3x80 series 35" twin locked just kept crawling it up to top until one jeep decided to go through soft edge and got stuck but it was a hot and dry day

01 Jan 2017

Matthew (discomatt)
It has got a lot worse over this winter, really wet loose and slippery, it has been very wet the last 2 times I have been there

01 Jan 2017

Jason (FauxBogan)

Matt, it's been loose, rocky, wet and dangerous every one of the 30+ times I've been there. I just prefer if people don't bang on about how 'this truck' got smashed up on 'that gnarly track' and how they don't agree with the tyres I recommend before we've even headed out. It just freaks people out, limits people's/newcomers interest and hijaks the positivity. It's like talking about all the aeroplane crashes through history while waiting in the terminal instead of talking about the beautiful destination or watching an in flight movie.
Anyway, see you folks there.

01 Jan 2017

Liam (BeardMoto)
Sorry to hijack the thread, but what difficulty would you rate cockpit and blowhard at the moment?
I've driven cockpit in the dry, and up to the deeper ruts on blowhard (turned around due to solo trip and no winch) been passenger on cockpit & blowhard the wet..

01 Jan 2017

Tim (UAV)
35deg on Saturday at this stage... so shouldnt have to worry about being harder in the wet

01 Jan 2017

Damo (Midnightmods)
I done this last week for the first time in my Stock JKU rubicon with 33's. made lower with metal bars all around, it got up 99% of the rocky track, I hit the belly on one section and no matter how many tries it failed due to clearance.
In the dry its pretty easy, however Wet is a whole other story, I would have tagged along if it was another other day but Sat.
Good luck and enjoy, its great out there, Just take your time over the rocks newbies

01 Jan 2017

Jason (FauxBogan)

Cockpit has about three lines to choose from, the easiest being a walk in the park in the dry. The ruts are big on the harder lines. But when in doubt, winch it out. We aren't doing blowhard though you can drive straight up in the dry and it can be impassible in the wet.

01 Jan 2017

Matthew (discomatt)
Sorry Jas, didn't intend to "bang on" or be negative about anything, all I did was ask what tracks you intended on doing as last trip I ran didn't turn out the best and that was a dry day, my main priority on any trip is no damage. After the massive down pour the other day and the rain forecast this week the tracks will be wet/damp and we still don't have a list of intended tracks but that's OK I don't mind a surprise and if there is anything I don't want to do I can go around, for example I wouldn't bother attempting Walking track again...
The last thing anyone would want to do is put people off but anyone that hasn't been there before should be made aware of what it can be like, after all you did advise twin locked and 35's which suggests you are only planning the hardest of the tracks.
As far as tyre size there was no mention of needing 35's in the trip description so I didn't think it a requirement so I purely suggested what I have run out there for years. If you think 32's will not be good enough let me know and I will withdraw myself from the trip.
Cheers Matt

02 Jan 2017

Jason (FauxBogan)

Matt, sorry if there's been any confusion over what tracks we're doing but twice in a row I've written the trip description and it's disappeared/not shown after posting. The description included min/recommended kit. The same happened on my last trip. Unfortunately, I only just noticed it isn't showing again.

03 Jan 2017

Matthew (discomatt)
All good mate, must be a system glitch that needs to be sorted...
As mentioned I will not bother with walking track because I know its a winch job for me but happy to watch others have a crack at it, keep in mind it is closed at the top so IF anyone gets up they will have to turn around and come back down.
looking forward to the weekend

Can I do this with 265s AT's and a 2 inch lift? I have a winch but no lockers. Have done rocky track twice before. Winched out once when caught on a tree root. Anything worse than that out there?

04 Jan 2017

Matthew (discomatt)
Um confused, its only 2 degrees cooler on Friday so whats the advantage ???

I have no lockers and run 235/85 and have driven all the tracks at Toolangi, you will need to pick lines carefully and at a pinch you may have to pull out a winch rope

04 Jan 2017

Jason (FauxBogan)

Matt, not sure he asked you. I'd prefer if Dennis didn't come with 31s because it means he'll get stuck alot and I want to keep this trip moving. I've stated that I want big capable trucks because it makes the day move faster. Matt, I've swapped it to friday because my forecast says 32 vs 36, which to me is a big difference. I'd prefer not to run the trip than go out in 36 degrees, so the friday is a compromise.

I know when I'm not welcome but I've driven Toolangi many times and never seen a trip where someone hasn't need a winch or snatch. Also, those suggesting tyre size is what gets people stuck don't understand basic physics. Seen the stock tyres on a 79 series or Defender? Will go anywhere. Knowing your vehicle and picking lines much more important. Enjoy your trip

04 Jan 2017

Jason (FauxBogan)

Why would you not be welcome Dennis? We've met before and I think you're a good guy. But as you said, physics dictates a rock to a low diff is bad and makes you stop, no matter what line you take. Don't ask if you can come if you don't want the answer.

Can everyone please quit bloody sooking?! I just want to f=$£king drive with capable trucks; if you don't have one, don't come. My trip, end of story. Run your own trip by all means. Happy? You poked the tiger, now you get the teeth.

04 Jan 2017

Matthew (discomatt)

Not sure what forecast you are looking at, all the Toolangi forecasts say between 32 and 36 depending what site and between 31 and 34 for Friday so still confused but its your trip and if you thing 3-4 degrees makes a difference your call.
So if you think someone on 31's cant drive Toolangi I guess I had better pull out because 32's isn't going to make fuck all difference and for that matter neither will 33's or 34's or 35's if you cant pick a line. Have a nice day.

04 Jan 2017

Matthew (discomatt)
WITHDRAWN from Trip - Reason: Apparently anything less than 35's will hold up everyone

"I'd prefer if Dennis didn't come" is what you wrote. I wish you no ill. But on our last trip we lost an hour because of a faulty brake calliper and an hour because my tyre came off the rim. No one got stuck because of tyre size. Deflated at 20psi, rim size and lift probably more important? Catch you on the next trip.

If you can't appreciate that tyre size makes a difference all the advice you just gave is void.

Boo hoo. 31s can drive Toolangi sure, but I'd prefer to not spend all day doing it.

04 Jan 2017

Jason (FauxBogan)

Guys, I run different grade trips and this is one of the hardest ones, which is why I'm being a stickler. I want to test my new beadlocks with 35 inch rubber and softer suspension with 10 inch shocks without waiting around all day; call me selfish or whatever. The more you guys complain only makes me want to run private trips so I don't have to put up with the crap, but I firmly believe in open trips so that everyone gets the full benefits of meeting new people, learning and discovering new tracks. Some people, like me, use this site because it doesn't have club politics; but not all of the rules/courtesies go out the window. People are allowed to have certain minimum requirements for a trip. I'm allowed to change days of it's too hot, etc.

Adrian (tassyclark)
I have been a member for a while and have not gone on any trips as my car is not up to the spec suggested, but I have taken it to some interesting spots. I am on a waitlist for the Simpson Desert with my current car but will be buying soon a far more capable setup. Doing this trip with good company would be a fantastic experience but when I see some members behave as Jason has here it is a real put off. Why would I take my partner on a trip with the risk of this type of behaviour occuring. Yes Jason you organised the trip, yes you have a good car, yes you may be a great driver but when you carry on with "you poke the tiger, you get the teeth" and boohoo etc you lack respect for others. I can only assume that your definition of club politics is someone questioned you or told you that you were not bigger than the club. Seeing this has now made me withdraw from the Simpson waitlist and I will be removing my membership soon.

04 Jan 2017

Kelvin (TREXGQ)

Here is my take. Jason, as a trip leader, has the right to reject any vehicles from this trip. He has already mentioned that this trip is for modified, capable cars. Yes, you may feel your truck is capable enough. Some may be offended if you are being rejected. He can still take some of you to hard tracks but won't it be worse if your truck is damaged? Jason, just like any members here, can run or join any trips. He has run many easy to medium day trip or high country trips. This is just one of those hard trips he needs to ensure the trucks are ready to join his trip. He can probably state the minimum size of tyres but then again, it's

If you don't like the comment from him or anyone, move on. Run your own trip or join other trips.

Guys, don't take it personal. It's just a day trip for fun. Chill out! ...........

04 Jan 2017

Matthew (discomatt)
Totally agree Kelvin but if there are minimum requirements they need to be made quite clear from the start . I joined the trip because I have done more trips than I can remember at Toolangi and have done all the hard tracks on 32's with no lockers and the only time I have ever had to winch there was my last hard trip I ran which we know how that ended. WHY did it end like that? Because yet another illegal car brigade were up there when tracks where shut "testing" there massive tyre, lockers manhood what ever and the joint was trashed.
Jas if you think you need massive beadlocked tyres to drive around Toolangi for the day your call and YOU will contribute to the eventual closure of yet another great State park. If you want hard tracks to test your jeep I will take you to tracks that make Toolangi look like a walk down the street, test ya car FFS
Personally I don't need your sooky BS and judgment on whether my car is capable or not, at least I wont get stickers slapped on my screen on the way there.
Adrian, don't leave the site mate it is a great site with all types of trips and all types of people, get on some trips and enjoy what we have to offer. Not all of us need bigger and better...

Adrian, have you read the whole thread? You're lecturing about respect... When people keep banging on and on about how they think I should run my own trip I get annoyed. This type of behavior? I tried to keep the comments nice for about four days but they just kept banging on like internet trolls. It's simple... I just want to run a trip and not have people being precious about it or have people like yourself inflame the situation and throw their hands in the air declaring they'll never use the site again.

I posted a fairly specific set of requirements on the trip description which somehow disappeared; which is why I rewrote and explained everything for you again Matt. You know why I got the beadlocks/split rims? Better traction and less tearing up tracks. I don't know why I'm bothering as I'm pretty sure all our opinions differ. This is literally my last post as this is well beyond ugly/stupid now. Safe to assume I won't see you on the trails.

05 Jan 2017

Adrian (tassyclark)
Jason, I did not say you cannot run your trip as you want to, thats your right. Just be respectful to others who want to understand more. Am I reading it right from Matthews comment that trips go on closed tracks. They are closed for a reason. You again about respect, or put more simply just doing the right thing.

05 Jan 2017

Ryan (Mac)
Holy mother of god..... what a sh!tfight this has become. I usually sit on the sidelines with this, however, It's Jason's trip.
He can set the requirements as he sees fit, no need to bitch on about how my 4wd can drive every hard track in the world on 31 or 32's because i'm so awesome. Geez my Jeep in stock from could drive all of Toolangi IF I wanted to winch most of the day and hold the trip up. However that's not what Jason wants, I wanted to go on the trip but due to the requirements I haven't put my name down. Can I drive the tracks he's going to do Yes, would it be fun Yes, am I crying about not going because I only run 33's..... F#$K NO. Harden up girls.

05 Jan 2017

Trav (dungarover)
I run 33's and I can do 99% of tracks that I tackle in my twin locked Disco, I mightn't always have the tyres but I have the experience to determine what my Disco can and can't do. May I add I don't take lightly to being told by people that my vehicle isn't capable but in saying that if my vehicle wasn't up to the task I wouldn't waste your time on signing up for a trip either.

I think Jason is just practicing a duty of care and overall we don't want anyone getting hurt or damaging there vehicle either, nor have people bitch that the trip 'wasn't meant to be this hard' category. Regardless, it's the TL decision on what is required, sometimes we have to like it or lump it!! It's definitely a grey area and can piss a few people off.

Take care tomorrow, don't break anything...LOL!!!

Fantastic to hear that! .... is Walker Track still closed?

06 Jan 2017

Tim (UAV)
Not sure what tracks we did haha. But we did go through a few seasonal tracks that were obviously open.

Matthew (discomatt)
Great to hear everyone had a great day, looking forward to a trip report on what tracks were done and some photos, also keen to know how Walking track went

Can everyone please quit bloody sooking?! I just want to f=$£king drive with capable trucks; if you don't have one, don't come. My trip, end of story. Run your own trip by all means. Happy? You poked the tiger, now you get the teeth.
"I'd prefer if Dennis didn't come" is what you wrote. I wish you no ill. But on our last trip we lost an hour because of a faulty brake calliper and an hour because my tyre came off the rim. No one got stuck because of tyre size. Deflated at 20psi, rim size and lift probably more important? Catch you on the next trip.
If you can't appreciate that tyre size makes a difference all the advice you just gave is void.
I didn't say that... Anyhow, I'm looking forward to the trip report post heaps of pics mate.

Dennis, dont hold your breath for a trip reoprt. Jason never posts a report, but he is not the 'lone ranger' on this forum. Most dont even bother and is the biggest downside of this forum as it is all too bloody hard.

Anyway, it is Jason's trip and his call who can and/or not attend.

Hope the trip went well ,but wont hold my breath waiting for report.

Jason, while you might think you are a 'legend in your own bathwater', you never stated what size tyres were required for your trip and Discomatt was 100% correct in that all tracks, other than Aeroplane can be driven on less than 35's.

Tyre size was nether here or there, its the response when people put forward their opinion and get treated like crap that's the issue, personally I don't give a toss but it would be nice if someone would have the decency to answer a question about specific tracks.
The rating left was childish and showed real character but again I don't give a toss...

Don't get up tight Matty, i got blocked or blacked out when i put some valuable information on, but it didn't suit the trip leader, That rating looks idiotic amongst all that 5 star rating, we know who you are bloke. Just go on trips with people you don't mind spending your weekend with.
