Dirt road with the kids

Post by Superu » Sat Apr 12, 2008 9:41 am

Took my 3 boys out for a mini adventure trying to find some dirt roads that were new to us.

Found a nice (very cold) stream.

Along a nice steep hill. :D

Image

Nothing to adventurous, but the kids laughed like hyenas as we bounced over the ruts and flew up the hill and then down the other side!

That outback looks at home there!

Needs some lift I reckon, about 4 inches should do ;)

With any luck Dave got my 2" lift kit off in the post this week! The first one went missing thanks to AU Sea Mail sometime in November or December! Can't wait to get it installed. It should be just right along with the set of King Springs I put on last year. :)

Looks very nice that Outback out on some dirt tracks, sounds like your boys had some fun, start them off geting used to offroading at a young age and thay will never turn away from it.

Hope you have lots of more fun times in the outback.

The stream's running pretty good from the snow melt on top of a lot of rain

The Lightforces are awesome! Like turning on the sun! Sorry for the crappy cell phone pic. Running a pair of Lightforce XGT 240s and Striker 170s.

On the back I have a 55W Go Light with wireless remote, 135 degree tilt and pan and 370 degree swivel. Also works as a friendly flash to people behind you who forget they have their brights on!
