  • Ever seen a 1944 Willy's Jeep in action on the tracks? You're about to!
    Trekking along beaches around Perth is easier than most places in the world. The beach run from Lancelin to Cervantes is one amazing bit of four wheel driving. You can access tracks around wedge island, explore the shacks of Grey and go four wheel driving at the Pinnacles!

    I forgot about how bad that beach was at the start. You need to be like a midget at a urinal there- stay on your toes

    Easy way to break the tyre bead. Lay it down next to another vehicle and drive over the tyre without hitting the rim and it will pop straight off the rim.

    That section of beach just north of Lancelin is bloody treacherous. Little do people know that in that area, which claims just about every 4x4, is the fact that there is an underground stream that runs along that area. Before the Army closed the tracks to North of this treacherous section, we used to go through the dunes and come out on the beach, then carry on until we reached Wedge. Its an iconic place and the State Govt should keep their noses out of the shacks, that have been there for several generations. Its a safe place for kids to play, and be courteous when driving through the area during school holidays. My son and I were on that beach heading back to Lancelin when his Patrol got stuck, managed to snatch him out and then we both got well and truly stuck. Fortunately one of the 4x4 companies had their vehicles with 35 or even 37 inch tyre`s. They winched me out and then got my son going. Bloody relief to get into town and top up our fuel tanks and grab a bite to eat at the bakery. One lesson I learned was to carry two 20 litre jerry cans if fuel. I refuse to pay the one and only servo the prices he is charging for petrol, diesel and LPG. Blatant rip off.

    • @Alex.G

    @utahjohnnymontana3373 Před 4 lety

    I'm late to the conversation here but how did the Willys get right side drive? The Willys MB/Ford GPW was a standardized design and they built 'em with a left side steering wheel. Even the ones provided to the Allies (including Britain) were the same left handers...unless I am totally wrong (wouldn't be the first time). I've just never seen one before other than those older postal service jeep DJs.

    • @Alex.G
      @Alex.G  Před 4 lety

      I'm not too sure on that one myself! They must have converted a few of them to right hand drive for civilian use after the war I guess. The owner would know for sure, he knows every little uncanny detail about the things

      anything less than 10 needs bead locks really,or turn vewy vewy swowly.plus,this is why i only fit 35" tires,.most retards buy a truck with a 4x4 badge,std tires,then die first time out.most 4x4rs are only 2wd,traction control can get you in more trouble,not worth it..locker in front,NOT ARB,& lsd,or same in rear,cant steer with lock rear.as good.

      Yeah as stated there, you don't have to be road registered but you need off road license plates. It's pretty much just to identify you and the machine you're riding and they're very cheap.
