\nThe roads up through Cape York are corrugated and rough, and when you\u2019re fully loaded that means your 4WD suspension will cop a serious workout. If your suspension isn\u2019t up to the task then it\u2019s going to fail really quickly. Before you head away, make sure that your suspension is up to task by doing a \u2018dry run\u2019 \u2013 a weekend away with everything you want to carry, that includes some off-road driving. 4WD Supacentre sells RAW 4×4 Suspension<\/strong><\/a>, which is some of Australia\u2019s best value 4WD suspension. Don\u2019t risk it, fit good suspension to your 4×4 before you go!<\/p>\n

\nGetting stuck isn\u2019t an admission of defeat in Cape York, it\u2019s simply the cost of the adventure. Once you\u2019ve sorted your suspension, a 4×4 winch<\/strong><\/a> is the next most essential bit of gear that you can fit. It turns a stuck 4WD situation into a quick recovery provided that you carry a 4WD recovery kit<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n
\nYou\u2019ll be camping every night when you\u2019re up in the Cape, and that means plenty of 12v camping gear to run! A dual battery system<\/strong><\/a> with a proper deep-cycle auxiliary battery<\/strong><\/a> will let you run all the 12v camping gear you want, like LED camp lights<\/strong><\/a>, inverters and even a portable camping fridge without risking flattening your starter battery to the point you can\u2019t start your 4×4 in the morning.<\/p>\n
\nSpeaking of 12v camping gear, you just can\u2019t beat carrying a portable camping fridge when you\u2019re in Cape York! Even in winter, the days are still warm \u2013 think high 20\u00b0Cs during the day, which means you\u2019ll be constantly reaching for a nice cold bottle of water, not to mention wanting to keep all your tucker fresh and cold at the same time. Here at 4WD Supacentre we sell a range of portable fridges<\/strong><\/a> to suit a wide variety of campers\u2019 needs, ranging in size from 50L all the way up to a massive 90L.<\/p>\n
\nNo doubt you\u2019ll need to carry a couple of swags<\/strong> <\/a>and camp chairs<\/strong><\/a> on your trip up to Cape York, and the absolute best way to carry them is up on your roof rack<\/strong><\/a>! Keep the storage space inside your 4×4 free and uncluttered by storing bulky gear up on your roof rack. As an added bonus, the heavy-duty steel roof racks from 4WD Supacentre are perfectly suited to carrying one, two or even three awnings off the side of your vehicle. We reckon you can\u2019t ever have enough under-awning space when you\u2019re camping!<\/p>\n
\nWhile you\u2019ll be travelling around a fair bit and moving every couple of days, a solar panel is still a brilliant and very worthwhile investment for any camper heading to Cape York. Whether it\u2019s that perfect fishing spot when the fish are biting, or just a magic campsite that you don\u2019t want to leave, a solar panel<\/strong><\/a> will let you keep your auxiliary deep cycle battery charged up without having to pack up camp and go driving. The general rule of thumb is you can never have too much solar power, and here at 4WD Supacentre we sell a range of panels so buy the biggest one your budget will allow for!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
