That looks much better - and the tow ball no longer blocks your number plate!

well if you towing trailer that departure angle doesn't matter anymore it will hang anyway on trailer arm if you go too steep.
nice job with simple fixing trailer height. so do you really need all that space to put stuff like car is not enough so you need trailer too. ? and all that just camping stuff ? |

I know right I wonder if it would be smart to flip the tow ball when I air tyres down just before I go offroad ? I usually have my tyres on 38psi for road driving but they are on 35psi At the moment as I did some dirt roads coming back from a 4x4 trip yesterday So maybe that’s why. Just to be sure I’ll double check them now lol 1WD |

When my wife, our dog and i go camping we fill the boot and 2 of the 3 back seats plus the roof basket with our stuff, but Because this time mum's coming along prospecting for smoky Quartz it now means a) i can't fill my back seats with stuff at all as my wife and our dog will sit in back b) Mum will be bringing her own tent/chair/bed/sleeping bag/prospecting tools When my wife and i go camping overnight we normally take our: # pop up 4 man tent (more like 2) # 2 chairs and a fold up table # 2 hd tarps and tent poles for my diy awning # 2 x hd 4x4 sleeping mats # 2 x sleeping bags/pillows/linen # 2 x 30L(ish) esky's.... one for food.... one for drinks (thinking of using my 100L esky for this trip) # 2 x backpacks # twin burner gas cooker and gas bottle # 1 burner butane cooker # about 10L of filtered water for cooking and drinking (overnight) # about 10L of non filtered water for cleaning # our cutlery and condiments bucket lol... which has all our plates, cups, knives, forks, spoons, cooking utensils, all our spices and coffee/tea/sugar # tool bag and air compressor plus a shovel # snatch strap and dog leads # bag of ropes and pegs Then on top of that if we are prospecting while camping we also bring: # an extra shovel # large pick and axe # small sledge hammer and normal hammer # a large 50L bucket which we use to bring all the raw stuff we find home in # numerous small to medium containers for precious gems and crystals # 2 small picks and hand shovels plus im sure a few more things im forgetting so definitely not light packers lol and it doesn't help that i wanna leave my 2 x 12" subs in the boot all the time which reduces the boot size by 1/3 at least. Thats just because...... ![]() ![]() ![]() 1WD |

Exemptions from registration Under certain circumstances and depending on the vehicle type, a vehicle may not be required to be registered. These vehicles include the following list that are exempted from registration, and can operate without registration: agricultural equipment - vehicles without automotive power built to perform agricultural tasks off road. For example cultivating land, growing and harvesting crops and rearing livestock trailers carrying harvester combs bulk field bins for holding grain bulk fruit bins trailers (other than trailers specifically built to carry a boat) that are not used in the course of trade and: weigh less than 200 kilograms empty are not wider than the vehicle towing it are not more than 3 metres long including the drawbar and any load on the trailer trailers that are being towed by a registered tow truck motor vehicles being towed* on a road or road related area https://www.vicroads.vic.gov.au/regi...m-registration it weights 75kgs empty its not wider than Foz its not even 3 meters long lol yay ![]() 1WD |

lmfao
maybe ill put subs in trailer and wire them up?????? bwhahaha... no..... ![]() what can i say...... i like my Foz loud and obnoxious lol Lets just say that list would be reduced to a few things if i went camping alone ![]() If i went on a big trip like you mentioned i would definitely remove one sub ![]() ![]() We take a shovel and pick each so we can dig holes, as to find any gems you need to dig a little. A lot of the crystals and gems are inside hard rocks so we need hammers to smash the rocks open axe to chop firewood for fire ![]() And even after all that I forgot something.............Beer ![]() 1WD |

![]() I was thinking that a 30L esky wouldn't carry much beer.. That's one of the reasons that We bought an Engel, to carry the food that really needed to be kept cold (we put in on freezer mode when we leave home) Then when we get there it's great for a) chilling the beer that woudn't fit in the 70L drinks/cool food esky and b) for when the esky runs out of ice. The esky generally runs out of ice in about 2 days, despite it being a '5 Day Esky' partly because my missus likes ice in her wine and be we open it up to often (to get the drinks out)
