  22. @Pacific has the one in the tailgate, I dont think it's fast enough because he has the second one in the trunk. Let him chip in. But talking about the compressor, I am extremely satisfied by my recently obtained DM 4 cylinder compressor. It has 2 outlets and I mated it to 2 x 1 to 2 air hose, inflating all 4 tires at same time, to 35 psi for around 3-4 mins. couldnt be happier with its performance πŸ’ͺ

  29. Hi Doc, Sri has shared the starting point camping option in the NB thread, just in case that’s the same location you plan to use - might be good to share here. Not sharing as not sure about the plans and don’t want to confuse the group.

Approximate finish time: 4:00 PM Important checklist for all members signed up on this drive. please read thoroughly and acknowledge by pressing "Totally Agree" along with your RSVP. 1. Please ensure that you are there at the meeting point on 7:30 AM sharp. Late comers would be sent back. 2. Firstly, get lots and lots of rest the previous day. The more the better as Liwa will not only challenge your vehicle but your mind as well. We would need your complete focus and fatigue due to less rest is the last thing that is needed on such a terrain. For those who prefer camping the previous night, you can do so at the starting point as its a nice spaced out area. Bring some firewood incase if you wish to have a bonfire to keep you warm. Cleaning up after the bonfire is mandatory. 3. Ensure that your 4x4 is well serviced recently and all the lubes and fluids are topped up. 4. 20 Liter / 40 litre fuel jerry can is needed depending on your vehicle. If you have any doubts, please post your query on the drive post and we will assist. 5. A full fuel tank at the meeting point. 6. Spare tyre should be in good working condition. If not been used recently, ensure that you take it out and check the condition properly. Also ensure that you have the wrench that can be used to remove your tyre (if needed). In the past we have seen that people upgrade their tyres but still keep the the original wrench which is of no use to remove the upgraded tyre. So please ensure that your car has the right tool to remove the tyres (if needed). 7. Air compressor, proper shovel, flag, fire extinguisher, first aid kit, 8. Fully charged radio (tuned to all Carnity Frequencies) with spare battery / radio. If you have a car charger for your radio, please bring it along. 9. Please ensure that you know how to switch off traction control (turning off Air bags is not mandatory for this drive). If it requires pulling the fuse, please research before the drive or better still, post your queries on this drive post and we would assist. 10. Car charger / battery pack for your mobile. 11. Plenty of water, approx 5 litre per person per day. 12. Bring along your breakfast, lunch, snacks, etc in easy to eat packing. We shall be having breaks in between the drive. 13.
