Once I was happy with the hot tyre pressure I left it alone, it is just a matter of playing around till you get it right.
Did I give you the tyre pressure setting from Michellin?

Before leaving, Mort installed his upgraded turbo onto my otherwise stock standard Perkins, being able to give her that little extra shot on top of the dunes was awesome and that turbo sound was boyish too. (I'm now chasing his upgrade for the air filter)
I replaced all the wheel bearings and seals not long ago (cheers to Old Dave Gray) but managed to somehow score a hub and do in the seal on the rear (this from driving 400 k on bitumen, not the dirt) as I was coming into Halls Creek. With little chance of a replacement in short time it looked like an extended holiday in town till 6 Oka's rocked in and everyone seemed to carry and offer up some spares, Harry in #45 gave me the high dollar double lipped seal which worked good on the old scored hub (thanks again Harry, I hope you received your replacement) I had no intentions of working on that hub while up on the bottle jack, so dropped into Bailey's Auto's on Barry St in Halls Creek, I have no hesitation in recommending them and doubt I would have got the same service or price anywhere in the city.
Later on in my travels I managed to break the clutch cable while out in the bush looking for the elusive yellow. By standing on a hill and a rock I was able to get a call through to Dean at Oka Spares in Perth who had another cable overnight into Geraldton, in time for a bloke who was coming out to where I was anyway.
Looking back on this long winded yarn, it reads like a commercial but to me it is gratitude for the people I have met so far that are in the Oka world. Thankyou.
