Some restrictions have reduced and some normality has returned, but we still can’t go camping across Australia.
It won’t be far away, so while you’re stuck in isolation, why not check over, fix and upgrade your 4×4 ready for your next trip. Below we have collated a list of items to check in your vehicle.
CHECKLIST
CLEAN
o Clean your vehicle. From top to bottom, removing any twigs, sticks and caked on mud that is left from your last trip
(Once cleaned keep an eye out for any ‘wet patches’, you may have a hidden leak!)
o Clean or replace your air filters
INSPECT & CHECK
o Inspect wheels for any punctures
o Inspect and replace, if necessary, brake pads
o Check Tyre Pressures and inflate/deflate if necessary
(Ironman 4×4 air compressors and tyre pressure gauges are great to check your tyre pressure on the run. See more here)
o Check your underbody protection for any loose components and tighten if necessary
(Don’t have underbody protection? It is a critical to protect your vehicle from damage whilst off-road exploring. Check out your fit here)
o Check and, if required, replace windscreen wipers
