We are planning a Simpson Desert crossing in May 2021 if all boarders are open etc. Birdsville to Mt Dare up to Finke not sure from there.
Canter FG649 4500kg , 2 Patrols and 2 or 3 Bikes.
Just want any tips , advice on tyre pressures etc.
Problems people had.
Must see ?
Any thing you forgot...
Sand flags for The Simpson?
I want to put a sand flag on our roof rack not on our bull bar but as per the rules sent below it should be 2m above the roof.
Now that will make it bloody high what has everyone been doing????
1. Every vehicle must have a sand flag
Specifications:
Minimum 300mm...
Had to replace our lift pump hand primer on our FG649 2003 last week after coming back from western a Qld trip.
Our truck is fitted with Zexel lift pump which is a part of Bosch .
Oe lift pump primer was $135.00 (part no. ME738105 ) but you can replace it with a Bosch 2447010038 or 2447222126...
We brought our FG649 dual cab with 76000km on the clock , before we picked it up they fitted ATW srw, tinted the windows and derated it to 4495kg.
The aim of our truck is a family camper to carry all our stuff in.
We tried to use second and recycled bits in our build.
We had ATW parabolics...
Hi all again seeing you all where very helpful last time we asked a few questions i have another question about TOOLS.
