Doing an amazing trip with so many squeaky bum moments, those beers at the end of the day must taste incredible! Enjoyable video, I need to plan my next trip somewhere soon lol

Thanks for watching and the positive comment. We are having so much fun and enjoying every moment of it.

Glad things worked out for you guys 👍 could have been a lot worse. I noticed a lot of body roll on the trailer. Would a stiffer suspension make much of a difference? Looking at building something similar so keen to hear input. Cheers.

Hi Jack, thanks for watching. we had heavier duty springs on the trailer when I left home, but they got destroyed on the Gibb River Road. You can see that in our episode Disaster on the Gibb. It was recommended to use slightly lighter springs so as not to be so ridgid. This will allow a smoother ride on corrugated roads and not cause stress or metal fatigue to the trailer. So they say. I feel that there is too much weight up top, causing the body roll. We plan to modify this. Please check out our channel for more videos.

Don't take a home modified trailer on tracks like that, it's way too top heavy for a start. If it wasn't for other people to help you'd still be there.

Hi Greg , Thanks for watching. This trailer was an off-road camper trailer that I modified. It has travelled all over Australia on many shitty roads/tracks. This is the first time it has rolled. I think it was more driver error. As for being top heavy, you are right, and we have plans to modify it again and reduce the weight. Cheers for the comment.

I think you should consider not taking ALL your worldly possessions with you…
Try leaving SOMETHING at home …

[@IanandLorrainesAussiadventure]

Lol. Where is the fun in that. The only thing missing is the 🐕. 😄. Yeah, we plan on being on the road for 18 months or more, so we took a lot of stuff with us. Now we realise we don't need all of it. It is our first time out, so we weren't sure what to take or leave. So we took everything, lol.

[@IanandLorrainesAussiadventure]

Hi Anthony, thanks for watching it's an idler bearing in the front of the motor. It didn't like some of the river crossings

Put some of the weight lower in the trailer. It is too top heavy. Lower your centre of gravity.

[@IanandLorrainesAussiadventure]

Hi Andy, you are right it is a little top heavy. The trailer is chock o block full of tools,spare parts, a slide out kitchen and fridge, and other stuff. We have completed thousands of km in it this way. We are planning to modify it to make it lighter in the future. I think it was more driver error than the trailers fault 😆
