WE HAVE A 17' off road caravan with control rider
suspension, shower
toilet seperate. ( Brand name "ELITE" )
We dropped our tyre pressure to 30 PSI all round, patrol ( 4.2 TD6 ) and van.
The only trouble we had was the plastic tap under the van ,on the front
water tank ( shower/
toilet ) was hit by a stone and broke off. Lost water in tank, but the rear tank for drinking was OK.
We drove between 40 - 65 km / h.
Some nice spots to
camp, just take your time. Your Ultimate will do it easily as
well as the trackmasters.
The tracks change so much especially on the way to
Dalhousie springs. You will see where the track has been cut up in the wet weather, some 3 months ago.
As you get near Mt Dare there are sandy creeks to follow, but we made it with the vans, so you will be OK.
We did get a couple of comments about bringing vans into Dalhousie. We saw mainly off road campers.
We even took the van into
Chambers pillar, that was interesting!
Our friend had a Lotus "Hummer" and his fridge fell out of it's cavity and the fridge door fell off and broke. I believe that he was driving to slow as we had to stop and wait for him on many occasions.
Hope this helps!
