Hi im new to the forum and fairly new to 4x4ing. I have a 2010 dual cab auto that over time am looking to add a few bits and pieces to. It started life with me as an SR about 2 years ago. I have now swapped the tub to SR5 style, added alloy bulbar, flares, alloy wheels, chrome doorhandles + mirrors, roll bar, rear step, hard lid etc so all but interior is SR5. Other stuff added is sound system inc. 2 subs, UHF, extended shackles and front strut spacers (for an el cheapo lift for now), I have modified the rear step to take a hurdle/ladder rack to carry long shit, LED light bars on the front and rear, and have just started making some rock sliders as the factory aluminium ones were the first thing that bent on my recent trip to Dargo.


Cheers

2xInfinity 8 inch subs in custom box that sits in the footwell straddling the trans.

Full of Alpine goodies

Custom door pods

Full Dynamat on the inner and outer skin of the door to help with keeping the doof in and helps a lot with road noise too

Those sidesteps/sliders look absolutely mint mate! I would kill to be that handy with metal fab!

build is coming along nicely keep up the good work

Cheers fellas. The sliders have been a lot of work but will hopefully ne worth it in the end. I wanted something strong but that looked good too. Had to have a reasonable size step for the Mrs to get in too. Loosely modeled on the superior engineering stealth sliders with other influences from others on the forum

Who did the fronts for you... Tidy job

Made em myself mate im a cabinet maker so did the front pods and the sub box. Saw your build a while back on car audio forum then stumbled across it here yesterday, fairly full on concept sitting it on the seat. Neat front pods on your job too. I cheated and jumped on ebay and got my tweeter ones from Thailand.

hey mate,

Where did you get the little LED light bars you have under the headlights? I've got spots there on mine i was thinking of filling exactly like that but all the bars i have found look too high, those look perfect!

LED Light Co they are in Geelong but will post no drama. They are nice and compact that's what I liked about them too. These are their 7 inch ones. 25 inch in the centre. They sit a touch over 50mm high with the mountings and all.

Cheers! I'll get onto them and get some for my lux

Coming along nice. I like what you've done with the sub in the footwell, did you make the cup holders / console to go with it or buy that?

Made the whole lot mate. Went to Rays outdoors and got camping cups and ripped the handle off. Perfect size for a stubbie even with stubbie holder.

Yeah nice steel fab work. Very clean lines/profile. Well done. MONGO.

So very slowly we are making progress on the sliders.

nice touch's
done well mate!
