Parts & Accessories
​GVM Upgrade

The name says it all. 
During our builds, we discovered this awesome company based in Newcastle, NSW. All Four x 4 Spares offers an extensive selection of parts and accessories, along with exceptional customer service. They also have a top-notch service department, providing quality workmanship and specialist knowledge in the servicing, repairs, and maintenance of 4WD vehicles. In fact, they even handled our GVM upgrade on our current 79 Series.

Conqueror Off Road

After doing a lap of Australia in 2022 with our 19ft caravan, we realised we wanted to downsize slightly, mainly so we could reach more remote spots. We’d owned a hybrid caravan before and knew we wanted something around that size again - but with an internal ensuite.
That’s when we came across Conqueror Off Road. Their campers ticked all the boxes, and honestly, it was their unique, rugged design that really grabbed our attention. Fast forward two years, and we’re now proud to be brand ambassadors.
​We’ve trialled every model they offer and even play a hands-on role in the research and development of both current and upcoming designs.

Winches & Recovery Gear

We use Carbon Off Road winches and recovery gear in our vehciles, including our 79 Series and Lance our HJ47 Landcruiser. While a winch is something we may not use frequently, when we do need it, we need it to work! We've used lower quality winches in the past that seize and have proven to be unreliable when you need them most. Carbon Off Road has developed a solid reputation for reliability, toughness and has been tested in some of the harshest environments in Australia and overseas.

ROH Wheels & Tyres

We're currently running ROH wheels on all three of our vehicles - 79 Series, 40 Series and 60 Series Landcruisers. As mentioned on their website "built extremely tough, ready to handle the harshest of Australian conditions, all while making your vehicle standout from the crowd with premium styling and highly detailed finishes" this is exactly why we love them!

Gull Wing Windows

Basically, if you've got a wagon with sliding or solid rear windows, you need these! We installed the Emuwing Gullwing windows into our 60 Series Landcruiser and it's a game changer. Now we're able to access the beer fridge easier! Comes as a DIY kit, which was easy to follow.

Electric Chainsaw

Our chainsaw of choice? When we're camping or travelling, without a doubt, it's electric. We use a Milwaukee M18 battery-powered chainsaw during our travels, as it's perfect for cutting smaller limbs rather than large logs. It's compact and easy to store, and has no fuel or oil smell when we open the canopy (where we store it). Plus, it's much quieter, so it doesn't disturb others around us.

Portable Firepit

Portable firepits are now essential for camping, offering a safe, contained way to enjoy a campfire while protecting the environment and complying with restrictions. We use the Bennetts Steel 'Easy Burn' flat pack firepit, which is around 8kg in the carry bag. Easy to set up, 2mm steel (so it doesn't warp) and also has a BBQ plate.
