Dedicated KJ Run - Syd Feb 17th 2007

[CHEQUER-PLATE CHICK]

I think if each state runs a KJ only run on a regular basis there will definitely been a chance to run a National KJ Round up.

Who's is the Patriot Blue LTD with the 17" Coopers ? What size are they exactly ?
what about rubbing ? No spacers ect ?

They are 245/70R17 STs, bit of a grumble on full lock with the stabilzer bar.. Will order some 5mm spacers 41/2 X 5 from a mob in Bris to see if it solves the problem without creating any new ones.. no problem when Im wheeling in the dirt as I go commando "no stabilizer".

I take it the spacers will be the flat plate style with the holes in them ?

Will 5mm be enough ?

I'm thinking of changing to 265/70/17's on my genuine rims (like yours) but i'll have to go full replacement stud 1.25"inch per side spacers. I know they're illegal but heck, no one will notice/care !!

who are the people in Brisy your dealing with ?

Hi Lads,
Great day out, my mate will send me his pics today (I hope). I left my pic taker at home.
Some one should have said I needed to have a bull bar to come along. Other than the leak in the side wall all seems good, my wife now want's me to look into better tyers (No prob). She even said wider rims (yes wider rims).
I like your pics Ed, I'm about 1/2 way though them but now need to do some work so I will see the rest later.

Looks like you guys had a great trip, looking forward to seeing some more pics. Did you try Ranger Bob or just Son of Bob? It looked very dry up there especially the long climb under the powerlines with the stepped flat rock at the top.

Cheers
Steve

Yeah most of the trip was suprisingly dry and dusty.
It wasn't until we got to the shaded section of Black Fellows Hand trail where it held more water in small pot holes.
