Are there enough comps in WA to take a car off the road for? Do you have access to lots of private property?

It gets pretty boring to have a very capable car you can only drive for a few hours a year because it can only be driven on comps.

Just a thought.

A less capable car you can drive more is heaps more fun than a trail car that's sitting in the shed.

yes Steve i know what ur saying but i have access to drive across the road for a spin off road its not the best area but i always find something stupid / fun to do out there .. also iv had the Desire to make a comp / buggy for a while now got a few friends that might be able to help me on the Fabrication side of things .. yes u are right there are not many rock comps in Perth but im hoping for some more in the Future

part of the budget for the build should include buying a car trailer to tug it around on as well, at least that way you're more inclined to take it out cos you dont need to go hire one each time.

Dont bother with Nissan stuff. More $ to have built up and not as strong.


I'm calling bullshit here, there's a few comp trucks out there reliably running stock GU diffs, they're one of the strongest ones out there. GQ diffs have a weaker front end (than the GU) but are still light years ahead of any stock Toyota diff.

Pootrol diffs are heavier than lux.

I went lux because alot of easily upgradeable and common parts.

The only thing i like with cruisers is the full float rear. I may adapt my bundera rear to suit crusier floaters once onroad.

Wheres the bullshit? Longfields are much stronger than GU diffs and stronger than Cal cv's.

To build a strong Toyota diff will cost you less than half a Nissan one. No bullshit about it.

Name the trucks that are running stock internals on GU diffs. List more than 1 from the tough truck lineup........
