Posted: Sun, 06 Jul 2014 12:55 +0000
Well it's been quite some time since I have posted about the hilux,
Since I bought it progress has been slow, but to date I have installed a 2" tough dog lift in the front, fitted a x rox bar with a winch, fitted light force 170s to the bar. I have installed a UHF. Setup a duel battery system by means of a red arc 1240lv with an 85ah agm under the bonnet in an arb tray. I have fitted arb underbody protection. Fitted a safari snorkel.
Currently building a tray with a canopy built as part of it, below is a photo doing a trial fit last weekend on a work ute to check mounting holes line up and to double check where to mount mud guards.
Below is the progress today, fitted supports getting ready for sheeting, mud guards have been mounted.
Yet to make the doors but have made the hinges, I will update as I get further through over the coming weeks. At this stage I will paint the same colour as the car when done.
Below is hinge, yet to drill holes for struts and still got a bit to do regarding the door frame.
And a rear view of the tray,
We'll hope you enjoy.
