Out Now: October 2022 issue of 4X4 Australia

The October 2022 issue of 4X4 Australia is officially out now, with two stunning custom builds stealing the show.

The modified Hilux SR5 on the cover is destined for a Cape York adventure, following an epic transformation from work rig to family tourer. The N80 is loaded with quality equipment for a Cape crusade, including an AMVE canopy, an AFN front bar, a Legendex four-inch snorkel and an In-House Fabrication air-box.

The second modified rig is a 79 Series LandCruiser meticulously pieced together by the expert team at Rambler Vehicles. TJM bar work and side-steps, a Hayman Reese X-Bar, a PWR intercooler, upgraded NPC 1300Nm clutch, and a Superior Engineering rear coil conversion are just some of the many changes.

Our MU-X build ramps up this month with the addition of a full suite of MSA 4x4 gear including an Explorer drawer and fridge slide. Plus, we installed an Australian-made TAG XR Recovery bar to the rear-end of the Isuzu - the first time this specific bar has been fitted to a wagon.

Matt was busy this month hitching a Jayco Journey Outback caravan to the back of six popular dual-cab utes, to find the best tow vehicle currently on the market. The test was done as part of our much bigger overall mega dual-cab ute test.

In this month’s instalment of 4X4 Australia’s ‘how to off-road’ driving series, Deano takes an in-depth look at the different 4x4 systems and traction aids available - what they do, and how to best use them.
