Her you go mate

I added some handles to the top of the roll bars for when we go spotlighting. I have to say they are life savers.



i was thinking of making some gun holders also but after a bit of research i ran accross some of the "gun grabbers"They are exactly what i wanted to make myself so i might just save myself the effort and buy them.

They make some that support both rifle and shotty so i think ill pay the extra and go for that.

Trip away at Trunkey Creek -

Hey Mate,

Gauges look good... how are they at night?

I met you Dad and the rest of your family down at MAS the other day... very nice bunch of people and a nice workshop as well.

Your uncles Dual cab is very tidy... get him on here!

Gauges are great at night, they all dim just enough not to be to bright and annoying.

Ye my dad told me he spoke to you. Apparantly you couldnt find what was wronf with your customers Lux?? Now getting my uncle on here would probably be the most unlikely thing possible. Plus i would basically be telling him how to post and how to use the basic functions on the forum.

hey apostoly , lux looks great.. just in asking (not sure how old your photos of the exhaust are) have you had the tailshaft crossmember recall done as yet ?.

Hey mate, ive goten the paper to make an appointment but havnt goten around to it yet, actually might give them a call tomorrow as i have another week off So whatever you see in the pic is how it is today still.

Ahhh goats and pigs well done was about to ask if you see any driving around, seeing the first pic you posted of the country. Nice coutry you got there, any deer around?

The place is Trunkey Creek, We camp next to the abercrombie river, so ye its a buetifule spot we have.
Goats are bloody everywere, you hear them around the camp site, you go for a walk/drive and 5 mins later you found a mob walking around. That was the 1 and only pig we saw n this trip. As for deer, they are there, but hard to find. One of the guys shot one on the way to the camp site, it actually swam across the river but as soon as it left the water it got dropped. Roos are also EVERYWERE.

Its very rough but at the same time beautiful. It takes 1.5-2 hours to travel 15K's of offroading to get to the camp site.

Sounds great i love chasing pigs and goats. Drove home through coolabah recently and seen mob after mob of goats. They were all on private country unfortunatly so i had to settle with just watching them run past.

So i decided to go ahead and paint the bull bar matte black to follow my black on white theme. I was thinking about painting the bar white and then the loop/s black but didnt. Next is the rear bar or upgrade to a MCC or ARB bar already black.

anyway heres the prep/drying/and completed stages.

muuuuuuuuuuch betterererer

Awesome job man! Looks sweet, I need to retouch mine soon, top job

Definately heaps better man!

thanks guys!!

Or the Jack rear bar will do

The bar looks great in the black much better . As for the rear bar im hanging out for the MCC one to become avalible it looks sexy as!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice looking truck mate; i'd go for the MCC rear bar that looks tough.
