Well it is cold down south in Yass so to the warmth we go . I promised Min and Rasa to take them through the Simpson Desert . Yass to Broken Hill ( black top ) mmm the cummins is going great ( go the Darkside ) Broken hill to Yunta black top them we hit the dirt to Balcanoona and onto Leigh Creek . The rain was good and the road was muddy . At Lyndhurst the road was closed due to wet . A 4 hour weight and of to Marree , Oodnadatta , Dalhousie and onto poppel corner . Up the Hay river track to the Plenty and into Alice Springs . What a nice trip . Rasa and Min decided that the old Andado was in order so we said yes Steve and Jenny Oka 393 said that they would tag along as we picked them up at Popple Corner . All the Oka's went well. My km so far are 4636 km fuel used 823 litres with my calculations that makes it 17.75 litres to the 100 km . 1100 km was black top the rest was dirt and desert ( go the Darkside )
You people that have XT s please have a look at your rear Spring hangers as Oka 74 on this trip and Oka 45 on the canning stock route had problems

I got to Min and Rasa's early and it only had a 30 mm long crack but mine broke clean off . I replaced my which had 3 mm steel with 8mm steel so it should be fine for a few more years . I think the steel just got stressed there . Something to keep an eye on

I reckon mine look like yours Tony.
I did break that particular hanger pin once in a remote corner of the Kimberley. The axle moved backwards on that side and we started to go around corners..... Had to make a new one from a U bolt.
Now use 20mm pins.....
Cheers,
Peter
