Gave the old girl some love this weekend with a good service. Also knocked up support bracket for my dump pipe cos I noticed it had worked itself loose the other week.Image Got the work lights on the tray mounted too which will come in handy.Image

Ute's looking Schmick as mate. Great work. Was just wondering what your suspension setup is to fit 33s?

Cheers mate. I'm running a 2inch OME suspension and 2inch body lift from VMN. Rims r 16 × 8 sunnies in zero offset. Next job is to modify the body mount cos I'm getting some rubbing when wheeling. Then will be re-gearing the diffs when I get the coin.

Cheers mate. I got a 3" suspension lift in now but am wanting a 2" body lift. What'd that set ya back if ya don't mind me asking? Also, what wheel offset would be better for factory UCAs with 305/70r16s

Dunno exactly what offset you'd need for 305s but I reckon you'd want at least +10 or less. The body lift kit was just shy of 700 delivered from memory. Google the Vehicle Modification Network (vmn) their kit is by far the best available.

Cheers HRG92! The intercooler set up I made myself, got the idea on here to make the frame and took it a set further by adding the fan. Ya need to had done a body lift to have the room to pull it off tho.

Nice work mate , looks neat. Like the fuel cap set up, does it have a specific key thing to open it?

Cheers. Nah just the second battery, I'll only be running an isolator up front as ive had the alternator done up so no need for a charger. Plus ill run large wire all the way so i can use it as an auxiliary starter.

Where did you get that tray mate? Also do you reckon it would fit a 120ah AGM?

Cheers

Cheers man! Still have a few little things to finish off but I'm happy with it. Thinking about making a rack system for it for some more touring storage and a custom low lying roof rack.
