Breaking down on
the way to the Bungle
Bungles
We’d had some issues with our brakes
for a while, but they were starting to
get really spongy as we were driving
through the Kimberley. Then, on our
way to the Bungle Bungles, an NQR
noise started coming from the front
wheel. Dave got out and had a look
but it just looked like the tyre needed
to be adjusted. It wasn’t until he got
the tyre off that he could see that the
brake disc was all wonky.

It was early in the morning and
people were heading into the Bungle
Bungles. A few cars stopped to
ask if they could help but once they
established that they couldn’t they
moved on. Then, some familiar faces
turned up! Paddy and his crew, who
we’d met at Adcock Gorge, stopped
and advised us that our wheel
bearings were kaput. He happened
to have a spare set, lent us some
tools and provided instructions on
how to replace them before wishing
us luck.
