What the trip asks of your 4WD

In the order a fitter would raise them, each with the reason. Up to three parts that fit for each, the first already chosen; swap any of them, or mark one you don't need.

Build it for your 4WD

Your rego or your model, and every part below is one that fits it. Until then you see the gear that fits any 4WD; the parts made for one vehicle wait for yours.

Rego · fastest

We look up the make, model, series and engine from the plate. We keep the plate and the vehicle details, never the owner’s, for 90 days, so you aren’t asked twice.

Make & model

  1. 1 · Recovery

    The soft sand at the First Cutting entry, on the Leisha Track and above the high-tide line is where most vehicles bog.

  2. 2 · Suspension & GVM

    Freshwater Road is chopped into whoops, and beach camping often means towing a loaded camper along the sand.

    Build the suspension for your 4WDLift, load and the engineer's rules for your state, specced for the vehicle and what it carries.

    • 3 · Tuning & remaps

      More low-down torque pulls a loaded vehicle or camper through soft sand without flogging the engine.

    • 4 · Lighting & 12V

      A dual battery runs the fridge at the unpowered Teewah beach camps.

    • 5 · Storage & racks

      Drawers keep recovery gear, fishing kit and food organised and out of the sand.

    Each of these is made for one vehicle, so the parts show once we know yours.

The trip asks for these; the rest of the rig is yours to choose. Build the whole rig for this trip.
