Interesting. Probably be an easier fit than the hydraulic one I joked about, which would be highly impractical. I wonder if the electric ones need speed to make them work. Can't see why, but I'm no engineer.Quote:

Nice read! Was in the same area last week with the so-called ‘Red LR 130 club of ACT’ (two members, very exclusive ;) )
Have a TD5 and although I have less experience than you my feeling ng was the TD5 held up fine in 1st gear up and down Cobberas. Needs the loud pedal to get down ;) Did all the really steep climbs in 1st gear. Nice and steady. Sometimes used the rear locker just in case. I rather use it and get up than need a second try.
And yes, had the place to ourselves! Spotted a few campers and came across one other car while driving. Great!
Sadly heard some shots in the evening too. Why can’t people just do what is the right thing and don’t spoil it for everyone?
Shame to have missed you Dutchmick, of course it would have been so very crowded as your club has double the membership of The Barnawartha White Elephant Brigade.....
We did the Cobberas East to West, seemed to be a lot more up then down that way, so it suited us fine.
Using Lockers means you never have to say sorry ( as the navigator decamps...)!

Even in a D1 300tdi I find i have to use generous amount of braking going downhill on some of the real steep tracks in high country. Though my 32's probably don't help
That was stephan Fischer all off road,black river track Jamieson, one of his mates rolled it.Quote:

We did it may 2017.[smilebigeye]

Camped on the Ingeegoodbee after visiting McKillops bridge and Suggan Buggan, (Waiting for the rivers to drop a little after all that rain) then drove McFarlane Flat Track back to Cobberas. There were indeed a few interesting bits.... also lots of pics taken of Water Dragons, obviously they are way more interesting than a Landie waving its wheels in the air.
Enjoyed the drive down to the Bridge (too hot for us though) and into Suggan Buggan. Not 4x4 obviously, but fun regardless.Short walk into Little River Gorge is a must, think it could have been named a little aptly....
