Hey mate im interested in the roll out tray you're getting that slides in under the tray. Is there a company that makes them or is it a home job etc? Cheers.

Who did you buy the Ballistic Jester wheels through?

Seems to be rather difficult getting them in South Australia.


I actually picked these ones up off a mate, he had them in his shop. Though when i was doing the ring around there were a few places on the east coast able to get them I think ALLWHEELS down in Victoria is a big supplier for them.

Yeah mate plenty of company's make them all different shapes and sizes there on ebay as well. Fingers crossed I'll find some time soon to pull off my tray and spray it and at the same time I'll fit up a roller draw and air tank under there

Hey mate how are you finding the light bar on the headboard of your tray?

Thinking of doing the same with my dual cab but was worried the light bar might be too far back and lose too much light reflection off the roof?

Too be honest mate it was poks with my light bar already on the bull bar and HID headlight upgrade so flipped it over and now it shines out the back perfect for setting up camp when you show up late or for those douch bags that like to tailgate hahaha :lol:

So i'm without a bullbar as I had to sell it to a panel shop for a job I was doing thinking i'll just order a custom bar off Buds Customs come Monday. Now I have just ordered front and rear ARB air lockers because they were at a price that NOBODY could say no to (well maybe the misses but i'm gonna try and keep that our secret) so they should arrive Friday. YAY lockers!!! :D but now I have to find a cheap bar or rob a bank :twisted:

Stumbled across a WARN XD9000 today at work, Luckily because I was just about to buy a roo systems one.
Everything works just thinking from the money I saved from not buying one, I'll upgrade the solenoid to an Albright and wire it into the dash and also upgrade the motor to a to 6HP sucker. O and a shiny new Hawse fairlead and synthetic rope too look all posh on the new bar. BOO YARR

Hmm just had a mine spec rollcage offered to me for a bloody good price I've thought about putting one in before, mainly when the misses drives :| I cant really think of any down sides except the extra weight?

Gets in the way, less head and leg space.. Does it come with the padding?

Yeah comes with all the bits and pieces including the foam he seems to think the seats all had full movement. It runs up just behind the B pillar with two bars in the center and down in the back of the cab its all approved and not a back yard job, it came out of a fleet car.

Nothing crazy more practical then anything will have 3 hoops and all the mounting points for my lights will sit nice with my 1" body and be able to hold the new winch. Buds bars are the right price and you get to help an Ozzie business.

Don't fit the roll bar. You've have zero resale as you won't convince it's not ex underground. My opinion anyway. Lockers, bar work. Love it.
