PARTS TO YOUR DOOR - Roothy

https://roothy.com.au PARTS TO YOUR DOOR - Roothy Covid has kept me off the tracks and in the shed for the best part of a couple of years now but the flip side of that is getting more catch up work done than ever. But the real winner for me has been that Terrain Tamer's online eStoree has proven to be a total winner. For someone who's not flash on computers they've made it easy to select the right parts and then get them delivered direct/ Being TT you know their parts are as good or better than stock and you'll know you can offord them too. No wonder this Aussie family company has been going strong for over fifty years - nobody does it better!

4WD BUILDS - WHAT YOU NEED - Roothy

https://roothy.com.au Wow, isn't this one close to the heart, the old 4WD Build - What You Need argument. In this old custom truck clip from about ten years ago we took a close look at Jason's 2009 Nissan Navara dual cab. Now he wanted a competent vehicle that'd take him and the family wherever they wanted to go, safely and comfortably. So he built the truck up using some off the shelf stuff and some pure custom stuff too. While your choice of brands has changed and the products themselves, the common sense behind Jason's decisions never has. If, like me, you're planning a common sense outback tourer that'll do it all, then this clip is a must see.

COFFS HARBOR V8 THUNDER - Roothy

https://roothy.com.au COFFS HARBOR V8 THUNDER - Roothy and Big Red Coffs Harbor, and we met another ‘slap in the face’ situation on this trip, one I’d been seeing more and more often around the tougher four wheel driving corners of our country. Yep, that’s the tyre size line. One particular hill was an incredible gauge for this as you’ll see on the show. Although not incredibly steep or even that difficult, the ground had been softened and because there wasn’t any room on either side of it, the first few vehicles up there pushing bigger tyres had shaped the track to suit. So Red, with her 31” Mickey Thompsons, bagged out on the diffs about thirty metres into it. A Prado, with 33” tyres but a lower belly pan, went a bit further before sitting on a lump with tyres spinning. Along come two trucks with 35” tyres and romper stomper, they drove that hill as easily as the driveway at Government House. Yep, anyone who says ‘size doesn’t matter’ must be talking about beer bellies and not tyre size! Around Coffs it’s often the maker or breaker. Why is that? It seems to me it’s the areas where there’s plenty of active and motivated four wheelers that seem to suffer from the tyre size line first. I guess that’s because as one bloke goes up a size, his mates see the advantage and go up a size or two too. Pretty soon if you want to go driving with the pack you’ve got to have 35” tyres or bigger to have a chance of following anywhere except at the end of a snatch strap. And once a track’s copped a few 35”s, you need that or bigger to make traction. Because you ain't gonna understand the signs around the back of Coffs so you might as well drive out! It’s a little known fact that Coffs Harbour is the result of a spelling mistake in a government bulletin. Back in 1847 Captain John Korff put his ship ‘Brothers’ in to shelter off the southern headland of Coffs for four days as storms ripped across the ocean. He was pretty impressed by the safe harbour he’d found and the area soon became known as ‘Korff’s Harbour’. Then, in 1861, a spello in a gazettal notice saw the area christened Coffs Harbour once and for all. That’s not that exciting but it gives a glimpse into this region’s history that’s essential for understanding the four wheel driving around there. Storms, Mother Nature at her rawest and a sense of confused identity for the few pioneers in the area for the first hundred or so years of white history. Welcome to some of the wildest country on earth, just up the back of beach holiday central and the rest of Australia's population. You got 4wd, or you've missed out.

CUSTOM GQ PATROL - Roothy

https://roothy.com.au CUSTOM GQ PATROL - Roothy In the late 1980s. Nissan hit the market with its original coil-sprung GQ Patrol in both a long and short-wheelbase versions. The Patrol was a tough truck from new - I should know, it was the first comfortable and fast Japanese 4wd I ever drove thanks to a mate hitting opal and buying himself a brand new LWB diesel. It was a slug though, with its non turbo diesel motor. The petrols were a bit quicker but thirstier than my mates at an all you can drink wedding. Tough as old boots and super reliable, the best thing was that Australia was Nissan's second biggest market world wide. That meant heaps of them came to our shores, and once our local blokes got stuck into them they quickly realised the mighty GQ was an awesome base for an incredible modified off-roader. Live axles front and rear, coil springs all around, slow steering that could always hold a line no matter what sort of rocks you were jumping over, there's a lot of reasons older Patrols are so popular. Anyway, check out Bogan's radical GQ. I remember seeing this truck in action and thinking wow, that's the way to do a Patrol! Things have changed a lot since then, there's been lots of advances and a heap of changes in the way people do things but one thing never goes out of style - a modified Nissan GQ is an awesome beast off-road. Bogan did most of the fabricating himself and there's heaps of tips here for others wanting to go this hard, Only trouble these days is finding a Patrol that's affordable - and still in one piece! Go hard!
