The tracks you are looking at taking are super highway most of the year and you will have no problems.
I take it you are going via
Cordillo Downs road, the
Cordillo downs road can be very rough in spots and slow going.
If it rains it might be a different story.

young ladies a couple of years back doing the same trip.

Those routes should not present a problem for your rig in generall, except for the factor that even the biggest and highest vehicles have to cater to ..... tyres. Some sections of those roads can be mighty stony at times - if the stones aren't trying to break your glass and ding your panels, that are attacking your tyres. Modest driving with robust tyres and some stone deflection hardware in place should do the trick.
