Muddy's or all terrains around perth?

yep, there is only one.........

nope thers at least 2 the east and west so more than 1 makes it the kimberlies

same as you have a southern, northern and eastern goldfieldS

So when I go the great southern land I go "the Australias" (there is West Australia, South Australia and more, so more than one makes it 'the Australias').

Get out more, the people who say the Kimberlies, Kimberley's or Kimberly's or whatever, aren't referring to the east or west Kimberley, or both, they are repeating an erroneous term, probably based on the misconception that the region is named after a mountain range, like the Brindabellas, or the Snowies (The Snowy Mountains).

Check any map - its the Kimberley. If someone visiting northern Victoria said they were going to the Mallies you'd think WTF? Same with Kimberlies.

hay there Mick........Bobs hill ..please expane

Mick could you give me a heads up on these tracks i dont mind pushing the issue a liitle bit when it comes to the rough stuff (within reason of course)

hey guys,

out back of Harvey way. BEst to have a look at www.perth4x4.net as many of the guys frequent that way very often, especially with some of the tough truck set ups they have. Also there has been a bit posted on youtube of guys tackiling it in zooks, cruisers, pootrols etc etc.

Certainly doesnt suit my 'laid back' style of travel

Thanks matt were was most of your 4wheelin done my hunjy has the dreaded ifs front end and due to the lack of travel i like as much traction as i can get, I even thought of installing a live axel on the front but the cost has turned me off a little, what brand and preasures have you been running i got bfg's and they seem ok on the sand then again it might be cause they're running low on tread

Ink...ive just about done nearly all Aust can throw at least once and have heaps more to do again. Lived in central QLD, Brisbane, Sydney and travelled all over before coming home to WA a few years ago.

Ran ATs most of my 4wdriving life and only got the MTs due to price and supplier was a mate, they are Maxxis Mudders. I love them but the ATs NEVER let me down even in pretty serious mud in mount sugarloaf after rain.

Agree the IFS is a hassle but less than you would think in WA....Unless you wish to do the extreme rock hopping stuff. If you are a tourer and just want to see the west....you would be fine with just about any 4WD.

A locker in the front evens things out between IFS and SA...but again if you are going to do mostly sand then it will help little.

I find my Muddies with good tread do try to dig quicker than the AT equivalents and for beach I will start at around 14-16 (depending on the approach track you get hard with limestone rocks that kill rims and sidewalls if too low) and then start dropping a few PSI if the engine labours.

Generaly dont ever need to go under 10 psi but can be done quite safely if you keep the speed down.

again... all the best, matt.

Ink,

We do a fair few day trips and overnighters out of Perth. I am Sout of the River in Safety Bay. Tere are a few EO guys down here. Dwellingup is a nice easy day trip, as is the mundaring powerline trail. Both of thos routes are on EO under tripa,WA. Get one of these 4wd Days out of Perth and Roads and Tracks of WA . You will have no dramas with all terrain tyres. I run ST and they handle fine. We are heading down to Nannup over easter too

Matt
