Road cond Tibooburra, Noccundra, Thargomindah area

I am not sure that I would attempt that trip with that van.
I would imagine you will have to stop every now and again to check the condition of the van on those roads.
There can be potholes, bulldust and washouts anywhere along that route, and unless you have a sturdy van, it won't stand up to the vibrations.
Clearance could also be a big problem if you strike some washouts and gutters.

Pretty hard road on any van around Innamincka and Birdsville have a look at my blog on Lake Eyre trip there may be some photos that would help. Thargo to Inna is mainly bitumen but there is large parts that are referred to as the up and down road, corrugations in bitumen. Good spa at the Quilpie caravan park.

stockas,

i drove some of those roads recently.

the dirt part of the road from thargominda to innamincka is in pretty good condition, though a little rough and rocky in places. you would be able to do it in your van if you took it easy.. though you will need a stone guard. There were a few non-offroad vans in innamincka that i saw.

i don't know how you plan on getting up to birdsville from innamincka, your van will rattle apart on cordilllo downs road and you won't make walkers crossing. but if you get to birdsville, then the road up to boulia is in good condition with bitumen/dirt alternating. I don't think you'll have much trouble if you drive to the conditions on that part of the trip.

cheers,
