24.01.2022 Here's a great spot to camp ..... and most of us can get there even with all these Covid restrictions. On the edge of the Menindee Lakes, western NSW.

24.01.2022 Looking for decent tyres for your 4WD, instead of the road orientated, thin-as-wallpaper rubber that comes with damn near each and every new 4WD? Check this article out and then see the crew at Outback 4WD!

23.01.2022 On my 79 Cruiser I had the crew at Outback 4WD fit this Fatz Fabrication airbox and air filter (www.fatzfab.com.au). Had it for over 18 months now in all sorts... of dusty conditions - works a treat! If you are worried about the integrity of your standard airbox/filter, check these out!

21.01.2022 Shock therapy for Ron Moon's 2001 Patrol!

21.01.2022 Koni Raid shocks ...... Had the crew at Outback4WD fit a set of Koni Raid 90 shocks to the Patrol about 9 months ago now. Had them in all sorts of country. Use to have them on my Troopy some years ago ... always been impressed by them. 4X4 Australia

21.01.2022 Want a roofrack?

20.01.2022 heavy duty spring kit and good shocks required for this mod?

20.01.2022 Ron and his well travelled Patrol have been enjoying the beaches of Tassie - this one being near Sandy Cape on the wild west coast - but a beautiful calm day when they done this!

20.01.2022 Bit of wear there .... but new pads will fix it, I reckon!!!!!

20.01.2022 Business as usual. We're receiving calls daily in regards to if we're still operating as normal and the answer, of course, is yes. We're still here for all of your 4WD needs, whether it be mechanical or accessories.... Being that we service, maintain and accessorise a large range of vehicles in the private, industrial and government sectors, we will be staying open until otherwise informed.

20.01.2022 Had a bit of work done on the Patrol at Outback 4WD, after bending the rear axle down in Tassie earlier this year. New diff/axle housing and we put a 'Superior' axle strengthening kit onto it. Got a new exhaust and adjusted the Koni's up a notch. Bit of a service and we're ready to hit the tracks again - hopefully sometime soon.

18.01.2022 Getting ready to head bush ..... Had the Cruiser in at Outback 4WD getting a service before we headed bush for a few days. Don't forget to get your vehicle serviced and looked over before heading away, whether that's for a weekend or longer!

17.01.2022 Does anyone still think that a towball is a good place to connect a snatch strap to?

16.01.2022 Rebuilding our much loved historic High Country huts. Huts confirmed by Victorian High Country Huts Association lost in recent fires include Wheelers Creek Hut, Gibsons / Mt Pinnibar Hut, Ski Hut / Lind Lodge, Turntables Huts. In the case of Gibson’s Hut, the hut was burnt down by bushfires in January 2020 - pic shows what it was like in December 2019 and then just one month later. Planning is underway for rebuilding. Any enquiries, donations towards rebuilding, or offers of materials or labour can be directed to [email protected] or [email protected] Also consider joining the Victorian High Country Huts Association. www.vhcha.org.au/membership to help preserve our huts.

16.01.2022 Check out the first video on Ron's Tassie adventure earlier this year. The Ol' Patrol won a guernsey on the trip and performed faultlessly, thanks to the crew at Outback4WD ARB 4x4 Accessories Cooper Tires Australia

16.01.2022 New De-Bug fuel filter ....... Had one of these De-bug filters on the Patrol for damn near 20 years, well, 17 at least. Cracked the case which we repaired with liquid steel, but now its time for a new unit. What's inside? There's a couple of big magnets, which the fuel flows between and the resultant magnetic field kills any micro bugs in the fuel (micro-bugs are a relatively common problem in diesel fuel). They collect in the filter unit (mine was chockers this last time) an...d not in your normal fuel filter, resulting in cleaner fuel getting to your engine. This technology has been around for years in ships, earth moving equipment and industrial applications, but the L500 unit is one of the smallest units they make and is ideal for vehicle applications. Had the crew at Outback4WD change the unit over while the ol' Patrol was getting a big dose of maintenance! For more info go to: http://de-bug.com.au/ See more

15.01.2022 Simpson Desert (from the Birdsville side) is closed, while many roads leading to and around Birdsville are also closed.

03.01.2022 When crossing rivers be prepared beforehand! Getting stuck and then finding the snatch strap ..... or getting a vehicle ready to tow you out after you've stopped, is all a bit late.
