Was just browsing camper related stuff and a google hit was for a post on 4wd action forum , however there is a comment that read 'Forums will be turned off 12pm 21/6/2019'
Anyone know why or if permanent?

Been on a spiral down for a while now with hardly anyone posting on it, akin to the Overlander forum that shrunk and disappeared a few years ago.

Hmmm. So, after their forum was hacked, their forum has been in decline and this forum continues to flourish?Originally posted by Pickle View PostCan only guess why , used to be an Admin on that forum.

I used to frequent that forum to see the progress of the RCV supertourer.
Does anyone remember that?
Bloke got bored so bought a Navara D22 twin cab body, a 6.0 litre turbo diesel out of an F350 or something, and driveline, then proceded to fabricate by hand the chassis rails and suspension etc all from scratch.
Took him a couple of years to get to the stage of sitting the cab on the rolling chassis, but with all the fabrication gear he had buy, and the skills he developed I think he ended up to busy building stuff for income than he did working on the project.
It went a few years without updates, then I gave up looking.
A Google search shows it used to be there, started in 2007

I guess there is a limit to the number of mud holes you can purposely drive into to get pulled out of. I'm afraid I stopped reading the magazine a long time ago - not long after Roothie exited.Originally posted by Lakey View Post
