Send on over a few pics of your 4x4 to 4x4australia@wheelsmedia.com.au or DM our Facebook page, to see it published. Here are six rigs sent to us in July 2024.
2015 Mitsubishi MQ Triton
It’s currently running 265/75R16 tyres on ROH Vapour wheels. Plus it has an Old Man Emu two-inch lift; Rhino-Rack platform; Darche 180 awning; and an Ironman 4x4 canopy on the back with bar work. In the tub I have fitted drawers with a 45-litre Kings fridge on a slide, powered by a 125A Enerdrive lithium battery with a 2000W inverter. Also in the back is a Travel Buddy 12-volt oven. I have an ARB compressor on-board to run the rear locker.
On the front I have an ARB Deluxe bull bar with Kings 8.5-inch Laser driving lights, plus a Kings 12,000lb winch to get me out of trouble. It also has an Ironman 4x4 four-inch snorkel, as well as a three-inch exhaust… and probably more things I have forgotten. The Vic High Country would be one of the best places I have taken the Triton. Can’t wait to get back there - Liam Fenwick
2019 Toyota Prado GXL
Mods include a 2.5-inch Fulcrum Formula lift; 33-inch Mickey Thompson MT tyres; TJM bar work and underbody protection; GME XRS UHF; Stedi Type-X Pro spotties; ProVent diesel pre-filter and catch can; Redarc dual battery system; XTM drawer system; Dometic fridge drawer; Domin8r X winch; Toyota snorkel; Rhino-Rack Backbone Pioneer roof platform; and a HIKE IT X9 throttle controller. The best place I’ve taken it would be to the re-opening of the Owen Springs circuit a few years ago in Alice Springs - Keats Masters
2004 Toyota LandCruiser 100
She’s done Perth to Kununurra a couple of times with a stop at Exmouth. I’ve also taken her to Albany, Sandy Cape and a few other places with my local 4x4 group. I’m actually on the road right now to Broome for The Gibb Challenge. My absolute favourite place to go is the Kimberley, but my dream trip would be to Cape York. I did it in a mate’s 100 back in 2018 and would love to go back. Mods include a winch, bull bar, three batteries under the bonnet (two main; one to give power to the rear), rear drawers, awnings, and a roof rack - Alison Renton
2017 Isuzu D-MAX LS-M
The D-MAX is running ARB bar work; Warn winch; Lightforce spotlights; GME XRS; Safari snorkel; ARB canopy; MSA drawers; ARB 60-litre fridge; 120A dual-battery system with 170W solar panel; two-inch OME suspension; and a Darche 270 awning. It has been to Bendleby Ranges multiple times, doing most of the tracks. So many places I want to take it - Rhys Kretschmer
2010 Volkswagen Caddy
She’s not a 4x4, but the Caddy has taken us on some great adventures and always seems to lead us on to dirt roads. It has a full custom aluminium drawer system; slide-out cooker and kitchen with an Engel fridge; two 120Ah Slimline batteries; and a DC-DC charger/MPPT solar controller with two Renogy flex panels on the roof. All remote systems are monitored through the car’s head unit. Other gear includes a 270 awning; roof-top tent; gas-powered hot water and shower tent with 60 litres of water on board; and Yokohama Geolandar A/T tyres. We spend a lot of time camping at Tenterfield and Glen Innes, NSW - Justin and Terri Cassidy
Jeep JK Wrangler
Simpson Desert and Robe, SA, are my favourite places. Modifications include a two-inch lift with Fox shocks, Cepek mud-terrain 35-inch tyres, Smittybilt front and rear bars, a 12,000lb winch, and rear lockers - Teagan Hart
