Locals's 2012SR Build - Canopy completed, legs attached
Posted: Fri, 05 Feb 2016 1:07 +0000
Hello all,
I thought I would introduce myself.
Upgraded from a 2001 Forester GT to a 2012 Hilux about September 2015.
End goal for the Hilux is to be setup for touring with the odd 4x4 weekends.
Will hopefully be a good part time member of the forum and post my progress as it comes.
This is the progress so far.
When it was still shiny
First trip out to Wedge Point & Jurien Bay
Modding time - Installing Ironman 4x4 Snorkel
Found a good set of 265/75/R16's on Gumtree to swap over for weekends and trips away.
Fits with stock suspension
Up past Mundaring
First blunder, wheel came off after not checking nuts after rattle gun. took out panel and dented door
sourced 2nd hand guard and replaced.
Pre lift
After 2: TJM HD Suspension lift
Installed my RTT, couldnt fit in/out of the shed so I put it on a hinge (also good for driving)
Random bug shot
Cheers,
Damien
