@@lostsheepadventures You do every climb every decent and every river crossing twice? Or you leave 25 cameras out till you come back? I checked- your shoes and trousers are dry at the tunnel and at the battery. If you ever find yourself back up Waihi way I can show you lots of mining relics here too- they are in every valley around here.
@@t.h.o.r. hahhaha everything thats on camera has been done twice. If it has multiple angles, then each hell, sometimes tackle it 4 times to get the shots ae
@@lostsheepadventures Cheers bro! Did you end up doing the Coalpit road and video in the end? I've heard thats quite the tricky one when it's wet, nevermind icy!
Ah the stinger bullbar? Came with the truck and like the style. Its designed to stop a frontal roll over and give a visual reference to the driver of approach angle.
Lost Sheep Adventures Interesting. Never seen one like that over this way. Probably like everything this side of the ditch, its either illegal or compulsory LOL. Love your little light weight rig. Keep up the good work👍
Once you are on the track there isn't anywhere to get lost. The 1st 8 crossings are the tricky part if never been there before but in summer can be easily navigated
Ohh tell me about it! Got a more fuel efficient truck now yet still spending more on fuel! Dam near an extra dollar on top now. Maybe time to go electric for offroad ae? hahaha
Just subscribed and Great to see parts of the Land of the Long White Cloud . My primary school teacher (John Grant) South of Adelaide used to explain in detail about different places in NZ and I loved the sound it ! of it
I need to get to mace town i flew out off Christchurch from Wellington on route to Melbourne last week the views in and out of there was absolutely stunning
How's the track at this time of year as far as traffic and water levels? Imagine how much of a mission it would have been to get the parts for Anderson's Battery in there back in the day.
Water levels are low and traffic is high from New Years on-wards for around 3 weeks ish. The track would have been in better condition back in the day but still would have been a huge effort to get any of that gear in there.
Sold a single cab hilux 2.8 +t a few months after buying this haha Love the jeep too much now to think about selling it but if fuel stays on the rise, maybe a diesel swap could be in order haha
Believe it was a rugged ridge one. Would find it a little difficult to put back together at times. The JKS style looks to be a bit easier. I have had a couple problems with VTNZ wanting to fail them though saying they need Cert.
@@lostsheepadventures Thank you for the feedback. This one looks as though it might be easier to connect and disconnect. The VTNZ might be a problem with all of them here. www.hrokbox.com/2001-front-swaybar-quicker-disconnect-system-compatible-with-9706-jeep-wrangler-tj-for-256-lifts-p-167471.htm
Came with the vehicle, its a Rugged Ridge modular XHD front bar. From what i've been told, Stingers are not legal in NZ. Seems there are a couple that are, but just simple removed this to save hassle
