great pics mate , where abouts were you wheeling?

[eMOJO]

About 100k's west of Brisbane

Well I haven't done any more work to the lux but everyone likes wheeling pics so here are some from Monday...






Most of these are from one of the creek runs that has opened up since the floods in January... I have a GoPro video uploading as well that I'll post

E

I spotted that gopro on the drivers side rear door. Looks like it will be an interesting perspective. Cant wait to see!

[eMOJO]

Here's the video... my first attempt, will do some testing with the GoPro tomorrow to see what works best.

Great Vid mate, awesome wheeling

[KTM525EXC]

Great vid emojo, it scared the crap out of me when the camera scraped past that first branch, I think I had it a bit loud

[csale]

fist pumper spotted at 4:30.
Great action at 8:40, were you wedged on that rock?
The bloke at 11:50 seemed quite impressed.

great build up and hats off, i see the true benefits of a good approach and departure angle now!

[eMOJO]

Yeah at 8:40 was where the photo's show me going off the dropoff... basically sitting on my crossmember, both lockers in and someone rocking the lux to see which tyre would grab traction and pull me off... turned out the front right grabbed first... Time for a crawl box with a clocked adapter and a flat belly, even the patrols running 35's got hung up!

awesome vid E!

looks like the floods absolutely ripped the creek up through there, was it in toowoomba???

also, how do you find the KM2's?? rate them over the MTZ? thinking about getting a set of 33's in the next 2 months or so, just wondering what sort of price you paid?

Only too glad to help mate

all the new adaptors are clockable. even the one thats on my hilux. I plan to clock the factory transfercase at some stage in the future and cut a small piece out of the trans tunnel below the front passenger seat and plate it up again.

Only thing involved is to remove the factory transfercase, remove the adaptor, clock the adaptor how many degrees you want and refit, the refit the factory transfer in the position you want and mod the shifter to suit.

Only thing holding me back is the time to do it and having a second vehicle to drive whilst doing it.

Then it'll be flat belly for me...gain 2.5" of extra clearance without a lift which is the same as the difference between a 33" tyre and a 38" tyre.....woohoo!

keep up the good work E...sorry, I got abit carried away

Yeah just out of town, down the range... all the tracks are awesome now!

If I had the choice between the KM2's and MTZ's I'd go for the MTZ's, better on the rocks and dry dirt but much much better on road... the KM2's are still a great tyre and awesome when things get wet but just not as good all round.

Price = free... actually I swapped them for some work I did for one of my clients who deals in them and sold my MTZ's for 500 clams

[eMOJO]

Def something worth getting excited about... will be interesting to see how it works out Max

Noticed you had the Ironman shocks, not sure what springs you said though. Do the shocks go any good?

[eMOJO]

Good for the price, I only run them in the front... rears are Rancho 9's with OME springs. I have a new shiny set of Billies waiting to go into the rear

[jarrad2314]

I'm thinking of getting new suspension soon so just trying to get the lowdown on what the better suspension brands are. Looking at the Stage 2 Lift on 4wd1.com.au, comes with rockcrawler springs i think

[eMOJO]

Over priced IMO for what you get and I wouldn't use Rancho's again... it all really depends on what you want out of your lux ie. what sort of trails you want to drive and how you want to use it on road.

Prob worth talking to a bloke who goes by the username ZORDO on 4WDA and DownUnder4x4... I've delt with him a few times and his service/price is the best I've found in Australia

[jpathy]

Very nice, I'm jealous of your travel, i have none in the rear and it sucks! Very clean hilux and all your mods are practical and very tasteful!

Great vid too, the sound track was good, what was the score from?

Just a question about your extended shackles from buddy, How much lift from standard did they give you?
