Hey guys, first of all MERRY CHRISTMAS to everyone. Im a newbie to 4wdin...and im slowly getting my lux ready for some proper fun in the mud ;) got my dual battery setup, and compressor all wired up and sorted.

Just reading some of the members buildup posts, i have decided to bite the bullet and make my own custom rocksliders...being a fitter by trade i should be able to do it, just wanting to find out if i need engineering cert to use custom rocksliders???

By the way blokes i will make sure to post some pics of my lux and gear soon :)

Hey mate can't wait to see some photos, to my knowledge you don't need a engineers cert for sliders.

Heres the Dual Battery set-up, tried to keep it nice and tidy....optimum word there.....TRIED hahaha

Image

About 2 weeks ago I finally fitted the ARB compressor to my lux...

Image

I ran the wiring loom underneath the carpet in the central part of the floor, and out underneath the center console, past the gear levers and up behind the button panel

Image

Image

Here is the ARB compressor button in the button panel, it did take a little bit of shaving with a dremel (they are a God sent...beats a file anyday!!)

Image

And thats about it on my lux lads....To Be Continued!
