    Great advice me made it up early 2000s in my 1995 nissan terrano 2.7td she was light and lucky to make it through the deeper long crossings yet what a trip.....

    Went to the OTT solo made friends at the first crossing and helped each other out the whole way. Fruit bat and Elliot falls were the best swimming holes I've ever seen anywhere.

    Great vid. Been to the top 3 times. Last time was 20 years ago. I hear they put a bridge across the Wenlock. Nolan’s was always a pain in the ass. Some good tips on preparing your truck. Lift out alternators with all the water crossings. Get a Bra for your truck and because of the corrugated roads get a sports Bra for the Misses.

    • @BradleyPaton
      @BradleyPaton 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      solid advice, but sports bra not necessary. That only increases carrying weight and reduces fuel economy. I told the missus to leave at home.👍

      @petercharles2575 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Sydney Hustler Hi Syd. Alternators will play up and stop charging if they get submerged. People who own late model Land Cruises will take a spare or the rich will buy a water cooled sealed alternator. No battery power nothing will work.

    @audioadventurer6892 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I live just North of Cairns up in the rain forest and when it comes to choosing when, November is seriously underrated. The wet starts later than they advertise in the brochures.
    When I have family up, I get them up here in November. Blue skies, sunshine, usually pretty decent visibility on the reef, hardly any crowds, off season rates and if it is going to rain, you're going to get a pretty dramatic thunderstorm along with it. The really heavy flooding monsoonal rains don't set in until late December or January, but the first decent rains and thunderstorms will start to come in November. If you can make those tracks early after the wet you'll do them easy at the tail end of the dry. Bring your widest wide angle lens, the sky can be amazing when a storm is coming. If you can camp comfortably in the rain, it's an incredible time to see the tropics.

      Fraser is way overrated and way over visited. 3 different ferries dropping thousands an hour onto the island. try Moreton Island, it is the choice island up here. only 2 ferries trips a day. plus those who do drive Morton know how to drive in sand. just watch any Inskip point youtube. idiots stuck for hours with 6.1 liter jeeps rotary hoeing the sand. once their clear you can see old 4x4's putting past towing caravans. how can an old lux tow a van but a 6.1 litre jeep is stuck. comes down to the idiot behind the wheel. i'd stay away from those idiots before you get dragged into their recovery.

    Hi Graham
    I deeply enjoyed this vid about doing Cape York as I'm planning to do it this year. Last November I bought a 76 Series Landcruiser and had it fitted out as my campervan. One year ago I bought it actually right across from overseas after discovering that traveling Australia became so bloody cheap thanks to your weak Aussie bucks.
    As a solo teaveller I would love to know when you're up there. I would like to meet cause it's your 'fault' I'm doing that kind of adventure. Cheers mate, dan
