hi guys;

This is the first online community that i have joined, so bare with me.

I purchased my first hilux in november last year a 2002 factory turbo desiel, got it stock standard with a bullbar. straight away i got a 2 way and gensis light force spotlights and a set of MT MTZ 31s on black sunraysiers. i then built a coustom tray with LED tail lights and 2 x work lights

this old girl struggled to get to 100km/h towing one quad let alone two and loaded, borrowed my uncles SR duel cab recently for a hunting trip and it could tow it at 130km/h easily so i went and put the Xtra cab on order and i dont need a duel cab and would like more tray space.

Having a ball in the old lux, i have just purchased a 2011 SR build xtra cab silver. not mucking around i have ordered straight from the dealer the following;
- ARB delux bullbar
- ARB side steps and brush bars
- 12,000 pound warn winch ( is this too BIG?)
- Tray master tray
- Long range ARB tank

It wuld also be good if any body could let me know what they have purchased there SR Xtra cabs utes for?

cheers

Gday, welcome u going to have a ball on here. U right u havent beaton around the bush. Thats a pretty pricey makeover. U must be pretty excited to get ur hands on her. Probably a 9500 winch would have done but who am I to say. Are you going to do anything to the suspesion as u probaly know thats a fair bit of wieght on the front end

Depends how stuck you plan on getting


I'm running a 9000 lb winch and its pulled me and any one else out that I have needed too.

mind you If you ever wish to pull a camper then the 12000 lb is a better bet

looking at getting 3"- 4" lift and MTZ'S

I just went the 12,000 Lbs because i am the only ute to have a winch with all my mates and dont want to be in a situation and not get out. could you recomend any suspension kits that would suit my ute?

cheers

Try Matt from MOnster Rides (forum Sponsor) with the kit on the below link. I think you will be impressed, especially if you are after a 3 - 4 inch lift
