Thread: Long Salty Trip

There really isn't that much under a D2 that is going to rust up badly in 6-8 weeks unless that is you are planning to park in in the water.
I think you are overthinking this, Just enjoy your holiday and give the truck a good washing down when you get home.
I have spent weeks at a time on fishing trips launching the boat and driving on the beach /coast and my d2a hasn't got any rust in it or under it.

Got to agree with this. Just get out and enjoy it and give it a good wash when you get home.

Just make sure you flush the chassis rails thoroughly to get any sand out when you wash it underneath.

It's a family site... just take it as read that Grand dad and his camel are.... "Close".

Whatever it is, I think he's on to something, as I've never seen a rusted camel.

I had my D3's under-body treated by the Brisbane company that does the tour buses for Fraser Is.

I'm trending this way! It's done a lot of beach work. Up to six or seven days. I stay out of the Salty water.

Still... It's a valuable car (Just put a terrafirma rear bar and new ACE rams in it... getting new BFG AT soon too).

My dad used to squirt WD40 all over his Nissan and boat trailer. Lasted years.... I have been doing that for a long time and Might just stick to it.

I.
