Has done a bit of towing in that time, horse float with couple cows in it, tandem trailer taking side by sides to and from town etc and probably a quarter to a third of those Ks have been off-road on farm etc. Doesn't really have anything done to it to add much weight though, Load Master flat deck, iron man winchbar front and sideboards and running Maxxis 764 in 245/75/16 which I'm pretty sure are same size as factory. See a lot of trucks with all sorts of shit on them that seem to be all about the look, big tyres and lift kits and bars all round etc and I guarantee you most simply setup farmers truck would do a shit tonne more sketchy shit than they'll ever do, day in, day out.

4WD vehicles today would die of fright if they were confronted with cocky's feeding out utes of old. 750 x 16 SAT tyres with every second lug cut out or if it was really serious a set of 825 x 16 Tractor grip recaps and wheel chains all round.

As I have got older the more sense I have gained, sometimes!
In the early eighties every morning I would have to fit a full set of heavy chains to the flat deck landcruiser to feed out across the river on the flats, every day was a full on adventure.
Perhaps a meet up on the 42 traverse as been meaning to do it for years and never got around to it?
Just down the road from me to be fair!
