Well, the dust has settled after the 4x4 and Leisure Show in Queanbeyan, and what a weekend it was! It was great to meet so many people and chat about their current and future builds.

We had a massive range on display, showcasing what we do and the brands we work with — from suspension upgrades (including GVM upgrades) and engineering, to wheels, tyres, lighting, tray and canopy setups, and our Gen-Y tow hitches.

A big shoutout to our suppliers who helped make the display what it was:

• Banks Power
• Method Race Wheels ANZ
• Baja Designs Australia
• BMU Engineering
• Cognito Motorsports
• FOX Shocks
• Yokohama Tyre Australia
• Gen-y Hitch Australia
• Addictive Desert Designs
• Offroad Animal
• Carbon Offroad
• KMC (featured on the Silverado 1500)
• Fuel Tyres (featured on the Silverado 1500)

We were proud to showcase quality tray and canopy solutions from BMU Engineering, who continue to deliver tough, well-designed setups built to handle real-world use.

If you’re planning your next build, feel free to send us a message or give us a call — we’d love to help bring it to life.
