The "She'll be right" gang is hosting a pre Christmas gathering of old and New Jeepers!
The idea is to catch up, share a few laughs, meet some new Jeepers and do some wheeling. All are welcome. It would be great if you can stay the night so we can get into the Christmas spirit.
It goes with out saying that the theme for this trip is "Red, White & Green" in the tradition of Christmas.
Depending on attendance we will pick tracks accordingly. Medium to Hard.

THE CAMP

Hoffman's Mill Site

Directions: South Western Highway, 9km north of Harvey. Travel along Logue Brook Dam Road for 6.2km, go past Lake Brockman Caravan Park turn off, and continue on the gravel road. After 3.1km the Logue Brook Dam Road runs into Clarke Road. Turn left and travel on 8.1km to Hoffman's. 27km north-east of Harvey.
Facilities: Flushing toilets with disabled access. Free gas BBQ, wood BBQ, picnic tables with seats, footy oval, untreated water taps, bush walks, central information board and rubbish collection area.
Description: Large camping areas good for caravans, shady, grassy and excellent for groups. Lots of private camping spots dotted around the site. Hoffman's Mill is the site of a once thriving mill town, established in the early years of the century. The remains of the old mill may still be seen.

The camp ground will accommodate large groups on a first come first serve bases, water (not for drinking) and toilets are available, wood for the fire and fire pits on site, no power or showers. We have the shower sorted BYO :)

UHF 16 or mobile 0422931541

Trips:
All trips will be leaving from the camp by 10am sharp, day trippers welcome but allow for minimum of 2 hours from Perth.
TRIPS on Friday, Saturday & Sunday!!!

Welcome to the Simex brother hood!!! There are 3 of us soon 4;), running the same setup. You wont be disappointed:D. Best way to learn is to watch others and then try within your comfort level. You will be surprised how quickly your confidence grows throughout the day**) .

Josh - not sure if someone will stay back in camp, usually all go wheeling. Maybe PM Murray not sure if he will go wheeling with Molly in the car.
Cambo - this could be entertaining ;). Watching a Navara on Hitchhiker will be a priceless moment!! Look you know the tracks down there and if they can keep up its all good!! I guess the chicken tracks will get used ...lol...just stirring mate ;).
Horse - Holy crap dude! That's awesome it's been ages. Stay the night!!
Squall - Sounds good, there will be plenty of advise available, some without asking ....lol. That's the best way to find out what works.

UPDATE!!! CAMPSITE INFO
For those that haven't been to Hoffman mill, due to the large group:D coming we are hoping to get the camp spots right at the back of the camping ground, this is a large area away from the other camping spots. (This being so that Donza "The shy retiring type" doesn't disturb the other campers:p ). When you enter Hoffman's campground turn right drive past the toilet block and keep going straight, down a short track and you will run into us! Should this area be taken and the rest of the camp busy we will go down to the overflow area called the (Oval). The directions to the oval are, just before you drive into the Hoffman Mill camping area, you will see Kent Rd to your right, travel down this road, the Oval is then on the right hand side not far from the Hoffman campsite.

I will make a LAST minute check on this thread on Thursday afternoon for any attendee changes.
My mobile has no signal in camp, so please send a text and I will receive it while driving around the tracks.

Drive safe and see you soon!!**)

Cheers

Doesn't look like i'll be comming anymore, my Jeeps f***ed as usual and i've lost headlights too. I am so depressed as i've been really looking foward to finally getting to use it but once again it lets me down.

Might be able to bodge it up in time but not sure.

I think that just made my mind up to sell it but i've got decide what to do once it's running right again.

Sorry to hear that Ben, would have been good to see the Red beast in action!

Staying the night!! That's great news, we might have to do a bachelor send off:D !

Looks like you guys are getting your self's organised so we will see most of you in camp on Saturday morning. Just remember that its easier to wheel without all your camping gear in the back. I hate to see broken bottles, alcohol abuse will not be tolerated**) . So allow time to set your tent up and unload.

I know, im an so depressed right now it's now funny. This is the 4th Harvey trip in a few months that i've had to miss for several Jeep related reasons. I'm tempted to have tomorrow off and re-wire them all myself with a new switch and relays and just forget all the old wiring but i've just got to work the dash lights out before i go crazy.

Lower control arm mount. Got it welded back up to keep me going, but I will be getting stronger ones ASAP

It was one that Murray had done 2 years ago as a temp fix. I didnt know about it until he told me about it on Sat morning.
We took it back to Shauns house and Murray welded it up for me (thanks again!)
I'm looking into stronger mounts right now so it wont be a future problem.

correct i repaired this mount about 2 year ago as a temporary fix the original owner shifted to the country i have disscussed elseware on this forum why these mounts tear off i will be making stonger mounts as soon as my new shed is built as i have just shifted house

Rosie
23-11-2008, 11:03 PM
Ah so that is Heidi and marks TJ. I thought it looked real familiar. Why not look at making up a full Truss for the top of it and incorporate stronger mounts in with it? More work but that'd be the ultimate upgrade and then at least you know you won't bend the housing. It'll also reduce the leverage on the mount.

Well that was one big weekend!!! We had 14 Jeeps on Saturday and 13 on Sunday and 1 Yota with soon to be 36's Simex's;) !!

Thanks to all that come out for the day or night. It was great meeting some new Jeepers and sharing in the Jeep addiction**) .
The weather stayed fine with the odd shower which was great to keep that dust down.
I was impressed that all Jeepers had a go at most obstacles and did really well. Highlight for me was seeing Toyoconvert drive the 4 door JK from the bottom of TJ hill to the top and back down!!! Great Job Mark!!!!
I will leave it up to the Roll Me Over member to post pictures in due time.
We have limited photos, but great videos!!

Carnage list:
Flares, 4 smashed indicators, 1 rim, control arm bracket, 1 front shaft slipped out, 2 windscreens, 1 banana tie rod and a few scratches. Not too bad considering the terrain!!

:D Hey Vic. Glad to see you and Sue made it home safe & sound. Have to agree it was a big weekend. Thanks for the praise on the highlight of your weekend, conquering TJ Hill was pretty special to me too :p . Maybe we can rename it Wrangler Hill ;). Great to see a few new faces and to share some laughs with some not so new. ( Any Cock Will Do :p ).Didn't get too many pics but Lisa captured a fair bit on video and as you say I'm sure our Paparazzi has got it covered. With the great turnout it looks like Jeeping is alive and well in WA **)
