Hi guys,
Ok so were can we go next:D?????
Like i said before, I don't really want to cover huge distances as it only gonna be a weekend trip.
Any ideas????
I be keen to head to two rocks again and just move north, a lot furtherer than what we did before. I really like the tracks two rocks has to offer:)
So yeah thinking of doing it the 16-17th April or maybe the weekend after...
Who's keen?????

Pines gets pretty boring after a while unless we organise some dirt bikes, quads and a nice BBQ like when we went with Pav.
I'd rather head to two rocks and drive north to new spots, set up camp in the avo, spend the night then explore more north untill late avo then we head back to Perth via the tared Road. Anyone keen for this?
And maybe go to the pines in winter. Or any other suggestions??

Mud is addictive once ya get into it, quite fun....
I think a wheel cylinder popped out, as I was driving I tried to brake coming into an intersection and the pedal went to the floor, kinda scary haha noticed a puddle of brake fluid near the rear right wheel...
I should be able to fix it though... just hard to find time during uni as you know

Yeah you have two weeks mate, plenty of time:)

Used the good old handbrake, left a couple of black strips on the road and smoke after that haha.
I may just need some help locating brake parts (shoes, wheel cylinders etc.) as I don't want to pay through the roof for em and ebay hasn't been much help.

If this is the case, then your shoes were badly worn so I'd look at both sides. I would suggest you steal some parts off Guyph's new wreck and use new shoes (unless they look good) and just make sure you adjust them correctly. You'll also need to bleed the system to ensure all air bubbles are gone.

Yeah, planning on getting new shoes both sides (I could hear metal on metal for a while, oops) and getting the drums machined (hopefully still got some meat on em). Probably just getting one side from Guy to use the wheel cylinder assembly and a spare drum.

Pav, if you machine the drum you'll need to buy oversize shoes.. I'd just buy the stuff off Guyph (as long as it's in good shape) and use a new set off shoes.
