What do you do for crust? 

Truck driver

When did you join The Shed and why?

Last week. Saw the competition for muddiest truck. I love mud, so why not enter. Another good excuse for a dirty weekend!!

What do you drive & how long have you owned it?  

I drive a 1986 Toyota Hilux YN67. I have owned it for 4 months now.

Any modifications?  

2" spring, 2" body, Shortened Tray, Checkerplate door trims. Snorkel, Extened brake lines and diff breathers. 33x12.5/15 Maxxis Buckshots on 15x8 Alloy rims. Trailgear High steer conversion.

Where do you like going bush?

Just local areas.

Any members off The Shed or 4WD Action Forum you usually go wheeling with?

Dirtfix

Tell us about that first ‘oh bugger’ moment you have had off road:

Out at Glass house, went to go through this mud hole. All of us the thought it was a shallow one. Went in, was a fairly long hole, gave it a little more right foot, then next thing i knew the front of the my ute disappeared under muddy water! Turned out the muddy hole had a deep section near the end of the it. Oops. No photos of it either.

What's next for the truck?

More work on suspension

Any mods made & since regretted & why?

No

Have you done any extended trips in your fourbie, if so do you have any advice or experiences to share?

Only one piece of advice. Make sure you have a decent fridge to take with you. I have a trailblazer and no matter what I do it hasn't missed a beat in 5 yrs.

What’s your favourite rig off The Shed, other than your own?

So many to choose from I still haven't got a favourite yet!

Where are you planning to get to this year?

Mud Bulls and Music.
