Hay hows it goin? Just woundering if theres any1 around the Townsville area that wanna meet up and go wheelin or what ever?

I am in Townsville and more than willing to go for a cruise or dust bash.... at the moment anyway not much rain recently. LOL! Also my little brother might be up. There is quite a few nice subies floating around up here at moment.

Cool, yea i have noticed a few very clean brumbies gettin around but none of them seem to be lifted. i usualy go wheeling at the bohle end of ingham road just past the fire station, i dont realy know where else to go around the area, any insight in where to go would be great.
Thanks, its good to know there are some other people from the board floating around town

Just wounderin if you have any picks of your ute?
mine are in the readers rides section

Hey guys I am in Townsville, have a '92 Brumbywhich I love. Doing it up a bit, and part of that is thinking bout putting 2" lift kit in. Am keen to go do a bit of four wheel driving. I have only moved here bout 2 months ago so any ideas about good places to go would be awesome. I have 13" wheel, bout to put sunraisure hubs on, are 13" ok for lift kit, will still handle ok?

There are quite a few areas in the local area. Like Mt Louisa(there some fun to be had up there) / Oononba/Savanaha, Ollera Creek/ Clement State forest / Mt Stewart, etc. We should get together for sure one saturday arvo or something? I will post some pics later of the above listed places.
apesybabe, I know where you can get some 14" Poeguet Rims from if you want? in tvl.

Some pics

I like your ride very sweet in deed. Yeah that would be wicked to catch up and go 4wding. So where bouts are these 14" pug rims? What sort of price am I looking at?

The pugs are out at condon (i think i it would be classified as condon anyway, way down ross river road), and he wanted $100 for the set of 4. They included wheel nuts and some old tyres, that probably aren't road legal. The rims are also steel ones so they aren't that good looking, but for off road rims they would be good. Do you have some pics of your ute?

Have not got pics yet when i do shall post them. Do you know a good cheap spray painter? Need to get my brumby resprayed as the red paint has faded in the sun and looks like crap.

I will do some research on the painter, don't know any off the top of my head. Did you get my PM?

Verns Smash Repairs Phone No. 4779 1751. They won't be the cheapest(but won't be the deerest either) but do a good job, turns out on of mates had his supra done there, pretty good customer service to. They are on Bayswater Road, between, Pilkington and Nathan/Duckworth Street.

Hay guys if you want pug rims there is a european mechanic on rendle street i talked to him a while back about mags but he said he only had 14" steels dunno about lug nuts tho

Douglas and Miller are good sparypainters but expensive they quoted me 7grand for a respray, exterior, interior, engine bay and tray.

We also use Dave taylors they also do a good job but are less expensive.

I got a quote from Hi tec refinishing for a basic respray, approx 2grand for just the exterior. i havent seen any of there work for a while but from what i remember they did a fairly good job.

where abouts is hi tech refinishing?

across the road from key motors used car lot
