hahah lol .. people wont notice but I had to cut out the big pointy rock on the southern side of the entry to Palm otherwise would have hit as you went into the rut ... The real struggle the year we went was Scrubby Creek .. yeah I know .. but it came over the bottom of the windscreen .. that's...

Thanks for that guys, appreciated ... goannatracks website doesn't exist anymore but a quick search leads to trucksupersingles.com.au ... they appear to be the same people.

Thanks for that ... my truck is comparatively light at 4250kg so it should glide over sand .... I'm not sure that the 17s are all that smaller as they have a much taller sidewall so I think about the same rolling diameter and I do air my 19.5s down to ~20psi on sand but I do worry about rolling...

Thanks for that info , my ATW scout is only 4250kg so I dont have any weight issues at all . that is an All Terrain Warrior rim (hence the ATW) so it looks like they are making them themselves .. I will have to ring them to see how much they are .. I want to swap from my 19.5s down to 17" ...

Hi John, we did most of the Old Tele in an NPS , didnt do gunshot and didnt do the the last creek (forgoten its name) .. I'l try to dig up some photos ..

Title sort of says it all but was interested who is making the 17" rims for ISUZU NPS 300 trucks ...

Hmmm check the chassis ... VERY VERY STIFF!!!

We use NRMA for ATW but I know Ken Tame does custom vehicles via the CMCA

FINALLY Disc Brakes on a 4WD truck! That alone puts it ahead of the Mit and Isuzu

I have a full ISRI air seat in mine but u need one of the old ones from an Iveco, called the poverty pack, its the super low profile version. Have a KAB spring/shock in the passenger side See posts by me earlier

Hmm tried Steinbauer and then did the retune: no comparison! Tune makes a completely different truck, no dpf, do burns, cleaner more efficient engine with 2x the torque low down and 20-30% better fuel! As to the effect it might have on engine not worried about that, the same engine is used to...

OK finally have one last modification to report: long range fuel tank. The modification was done by Ric Black at Out of Town 4WD near Newcastle. Let me say at the outset I have been very careful not to recommend people who have done work on this truck as I do not think we want the forum to...

No not yet! Have only found one to do it in WA and will have it done when we get there as this stuff is a real PITA :-)

Just one final addition when not carrying the trusty KTM: His and hers matching fat bikes :-) PS if you are up in North QLD u must do the classic bike tracks up there (Bump track etc) even if on hired bikes, just awesome riding.

Well this is probably the last instalment on the NPS suspension saga and the suspension is about as good as it can possibly be. It handles big G outs at 120kmh on the road and yet we have 1m+ or articulation off road. We just did about 50% of the OTL in the Cape and did not have an issue...
