Anyone interested in a Coffs run around end Sept/start Oct...? Me and my Old Man (100 Series) will be doing a run...
.
Im going on a night run with a few guys on the 31st in and around station creek if he wants to tag along.
Friendly group and you only do what you want to do.
If no then keep me in mind as im always keen to get my pajero dirty
OP
Hey, cheers for the offer mate... Unfortunately the Old Man lives in Mackay and he's coming down so I can fit a part-time 4WD kit to his 100, then of course we need to test it out!! 
... Looks like Andy (y b normal) will be coming too, so will let you know as we get closer... Will be good to have some local knowledge... :)

Ok... an update on Coffs run... We will be heading down for the 24th to 28th of Sept. for all who may be interested... Camping info/location details will be added shortly... :)
Need to speak to Navman if we may have a sleepover at his place then. :) Keen to come to Coffs for sure. :)
Coff's would be sweeet.. lift kit in the jeep pending!
Heaps of camping in/around Coffs. If you love camping near the beach then I can recommend Pebly Beach or if you're not keen on the salt water crossing then go to station creek (on the way to pebbly) some very entertaining tracks in the station creek area,
Just came back from a night run in station creek where I lost front drive and my winch packed it in. So after I wash it (it had to rain didn't it) i'll have to diagnose.

^ sounds like it must have been a cracker run mate! Broken drives and cactus winches usually equal a fun run... ... So you reckon Pebbly Beach or Station Creek may be good for the base/campsite...? My Old Man was wondering what you reckon about Red Rock or Cascades...? Cheers mate...

Wasn't as much fun as you'd think. If I broke a cv or burnt the winch out that would have been more fun to me. This was purely annoying as I would have done a few recoveries instead of being recovered. There's nothing like recovering a Nissan in a Pajero 
About camping. There are heaps of places to camp around here I have only been to station creek and pebbly so can only comment on those. visit http://www.nationalparks.nsw.gov.au/Stay and type in Coffs Harbour and then go to the map view and it will show you where all the npws camp sites in the area are.
For 4x4ing thers alot of fun around station creek and if you can find them there's widowmaker, commando army and rover trails to play on.

Oh, so it wasn't a case of too much use...? Yeah, that's never much fun then, hey...
Will have a chat with the Old bloke and see what he reckons... But you reckon Pebbly and Station are good spots too though?
Believe it or not mate, Commando Track is on the HEMA Navigator, but on the Street Directory function, NOT 4WD or Topo maps...!! Figure that one out! Hehe... We found it Xmas 2012 when we were down that way, but didn't tackle it due to Dad having only just bought the 100, and not really keen on going that far in it first time out...

Definately not overuse. I pulled it apart today and it looks like it must have burnt itself out the last time i used it. What a pita as i need to find a new motor as everything else is good. I haven't been able to look into my loss of fwd yet as i had to fix the father in laws commodore as it had stopped dead. Fixed that so back to the pajero tomorow.
Yeah Commando is there and has 2 sides, there's the easy way (no sweat in my paj in the dry) and the hard way which i don't think i'd do without a pair of lockers and a good spotter.
Army, Commando and Rocky trails are fairly close together on mount Coramba.
Rover trail is in between gaudrons rd and bruxner park rd. Good fun that track without a locker or decent articulation.
Station creek and Pebly Beach are very basic sites but nice none the less.
