Thread: What did you do on your Perentie Today.

I spent last night on a mates property and finally got to see what 49191 can do!
we took down a few trees for his dad, to make a new track, used the perentie of course, not a scratch on her! cant say the same for the trees though. thats my cousin in the drivers seat here, he jumped in it as soon as i jumped out to get that shot (picture 2)
took her along their track that every other 4wd has been bogged on, she didnt skip a beat. (picture 1, at the top of the hill)
and finally had to use it to tow a mates hilux up a hill so we can get home (should have just left him there lol) and again didnt even feel the weight, sadly i couldnt get a picture of that one though

Cheers,
Lachlan

I picked mine up from the car transporters today and took Spanner Roo 1 home! Love it!
As it turned out Spanner Roo is an Iraq vet serving with AUSCDT3 (1 of 4 rovers they had).
Heaps of in service pics due to a "photo op" during some port operations.
Chear to Dodge1942 for putting me onto the car and Tommy for the in serv pics.

100kms

Lucas, How are you going to go with the standard as a spare when it is about 60-70mm shorter in diameter than the 33's you are running. It won't even touch the ground in my calc's if you are using it with 3 33's ?

Cinan, the standard tyre is near as damn to 32", so a 33" isn't going to leave 60-70mm drop. Even if it did the vehicle would lean over and touch the ground. It is heavy duty suspension, not race spec

Was my exact reasoning, am just going to have to keep looking for a cheap second hand 33
