The border nazis can be rather obnoxious as they DEMANDED I empty the entire car! When I refused, they called in a hiding police officer, who suggested that I comply. I said NO, I have no contraband, drugs, hidden cattle, penguins or vegetables . He then , with the border nazi, checked my fridge, food boxes and a general overview, then asked to look in my clothing and personal bags. I again refused and suggested, that the whole process was way too heavy handed and maybe he needs to get a search warrant and a reality check. I was then waved thru and they were given the one finger salute as I left There is a need for protection of our agricultural and pastoral zones, but not a nasty and abrupt attitude and a ridiculous level of aggro and suspicion from a single person on the border check squad. Previously I had no issues and it was quick and pleasant and was based on your declaration and a check of food stuffs and a visual check only. “ Times they are a changing”, said Bob Dylan. Great to hear your family connection to the great Len Beadell, he was a true pioneer and outback legend for his work.

Beautiful video , so congratulations with the filming, editing, production and music overlay! I will be doing this trip soon, so I appreciated your advice Well done!

Yo Mr A hope you’re doing well these days ! - Astro

Nice rig minus the camper. I was expecting a room inside other than the tent.

How long in millimetres is the canopy mate?

Nice build, you have put a lot of work into the vehicle. Not sure if you are aware that DMW in QLD has Federal approval last year for second stage manufacture for next Gen Ford Rangers. They offer a GVM increase of 3800 kg & 4250 kg with chassis strengthening along with GCM increase. My sister has just had her new ranger upgraded to 4250 Enjoy your videos. cheers Jeff & Sharyn

Ex Army Survey Squadron (formerly survey corps, and aerial surveyor who has surveyed the Nullarbor, via air, and my great great grandfather was also a pre ww1 surveyor who lived in Adelaide. I’ve probably been in contact with soldiers who may have known Len, but the eldest I knew where Vietnam era. The old survey school building in Moorebank was called the Milne Bay building, most likely after the ww2 surveyors stationed at Milne Bay 👌

Hey great video for me. you said you bought double cap chassis but in the video there was no alloy tray. Can you order without alloy tray and is that more cheaper?

Great setup and video. I'm looking at a Ranger also, what's the rough cost of these options?

Nice set up guys. Do you know what the vehicle weighs now? Looking at doing a similar set up but also want to tow a van.

The ARB GVM upgrade kits absolutely do not increase your GCM. The only second stage manufacturer that offers a GCM with their GVM upgrades is Lovells Engineering. You have a GVM upgrade and an axle load limit upgrade. Not a GCM upgrade.

Nice build🤙🤙 In SA also... What was the cost of the wrap?

You got a gcm upgrade with old man emu suspension?

what the dog

Very well planned out, a really sweet build! Looking forward to seeing how you do the electrics. Thanks for posting.

Great vid, nice rig. Question - Do you know what the difference in weight was between your empty canopy compared to a tub and canopy set up?

Pretty much 32 s

Hey guys, brilliant set up. You may need to check your tyre size though. Your audio says 265/70R17 but the vision shows 285/70R17.

Good to see you 2 back , love the colour.

Nice.

Mate looks awesome, one thing Id be checking with your gvm upgrade is last time I checked arb gvm upgrade didnt change the gcm, its been a while so that might have changed but just for piece of mind Id be looking into it

I think the point where this failed was the start when you brought the ranger. 2nd most popular car but the worst for warranty, ford will leave you dry.

Just found your channel. Great video. I pick up our wildtrak on Wednesday. Can’t wait!!

Nice setup. As much as I love my Ranger, I wouldn't trust it for remote touring. To be honest, I wouldn't trust any modern 4x4 apart from a 79 or pre 2000's 4x4.

Wow the guys at Go4x4, done a awesome job 😊

Love the colour

Good to see you back can't wait to see your adventures but I think I got the best Ranger still loving her👍

Are you going to add a winch later?

WOW fantastic set up guys,well done she's a beaut,look forward to your next adventure.

Thankyou so much for the wiki links much appreciated

Glad Goeff Lewis highlighted your channel, very interesting! I subscribed. We have had an old Jaffle Iron for years and I never really knew how to use it, thanks for the instruction.

🎉HBD Jessicaaaaaaaaaa

I’m really enjoying you two❤, only seen 3, but I’m onboard!

Hey guys what month did you actually do this trip. We are planning on travelling the Nullarbor very soon. Thanks

4:46 left hangin' 😂😮

Hey guys! Just found your channel and subscribed. We are also travelling around Aus and are documenting our journey too :) nice video!

What about permits. How did you go about acquiring them

I always enjoy your videos, and this Anne Beadell Highway series has been no exception. Hardly surprising given your personal connection to the subject matter. Its been a little while since you uploaded. Hope everything is good with you guys and there are no issues. Really looking forward to your next vid 🙂

This video was more about your car, your camp, you, and your food. What about the track ?

8:02 that dual carriageway section could be sealed and then it would be even better than most highways in Australia

Just stumbled onto your channel and it's very rewarding to see a couple enjoying the outback. Special kudos to your family heritage. We have so much to thank Len for in opening up this wonderful country. Travelling all his tracks was on my bucket list and I'm pleased to say its been ticked off. Did the trip East to West in 2010 on the way to the CSR. The SA side of the track was very bad, but, improved considerably once we crossed the border into WA. Keep the spirit alive and travel safe.
