Very cool, looks like there’s a decent bunch of you guys to link up with when we eventually get to move that side. Looking forward to it.

Re: Atlantis Dunes 1 Dec
Great, looks like fun.
I would like to know what suspension, gearing and tyres that 4.5 is running in the last photo?

I was wondering how one would manage that sort of tyre size with a 4.5 in the dunes. Gearing would probably be the only way, in the diff and transfer case?

Re: Atlantis Dunes 1 Dec
Hi Lawrence, my contract with Mr Spices ends next year Feb - however, I need to sell my house before I can pack up & move and with ONE person coming to look in two months it's not likely to happen too soon. I have asked if I can continue on a month by month basis until we do sell and it seems to not be a problem, so, sometime next year you will hear from me - I'll be out of Gauteng and next to Reenen in Greyton!!
