Very nice mate. You definitely through the catalog at it. ARB also stock a number plate mount that tilts up if you want to mount it down over the winch rope to allow airflow in.

Very nice man! How r ya finding the bp51s? The few sets I've fitted so far have been giving good results, still find it hard to justify the price tag tho! Ya local arb store must love ya, I know if ya walked into mine my boss would love ya!

[beachbum62]

LOL yer they have been great to deal with, only had the BP's fitted yesterday so going to give them a work out next week down south, I will let you know what I think but the ride is smooth as on the black stuff.

Very nice rig mate, good luck with the trip.

[TOYZX]

Did they give you the tool to play with the dampening? Don't be afraid to have a play, just remember where ya started! Most sets I fit I've had to go for a spin, adjust then drive then adjust. They all seem to excellent on road but seem a bit boaty off road, a bit of play soon sorts it out. Have fun!

[beachbum62]

Yep still playing around with it, got draws going tomorrow so that will be an extra 100kgs

Where do you work Toyzx

[rds_929]

looks so good mate hopefully mine will look like this one day

[TOYZX]

GCS 4x4 ARB Griffith. Why's that man?

Ahh kool I was over that way a few months ago, two of my mates walked from Sydney to perth

[Jacko9]

are you Toyzx, are you the young lad up the front in there? brought a bit of gear in there over the years, but don't buy a lot of ARB gear, only buy their compressors and the like, buy custom bars from in griffith @ almet, and suspension is mostly Ultimate Suspension, tempted to give the BP-51 a go if it is all it is cracked up to be, might come over and say g'day next time I am there... From Hay.

[TOYZX]

Wow! Sydney to Perth, bugger that lol! Hope it was for a good cause! Nah Jacko9, I'm the head fitter in the workshop.

yes mate a very good cause, we raise money for childhood brian cancer research, the boys raised $140,000 for this adventure and straight to hospital when they finished, their feet were pretty ugly

Nice rig mate, looks great, motivates me to do a few more things to mine

But gee I hate that ARB rear bar, for $1200 you'd think they could do better. Maybe the new hilux will make them do something that's more practical and doesn;t hang so low.

i went the MCC 4x4 rear bar, love it!

[incman]

I'd go the electric rear locker on my Hilux once I ready, over the air locker ARB have. Electric lockers are what the factory do on the Ranger, BT50 and suspect the new hilux also

[TOYZX]

140k that's awesome congrats! Pretty sure arb r working on some new hilux gear to go in their summit range. The new summit rear step is pretty cool, much better the the norm. So far they only have them for the ranger tho.

I will admit I dont know stuff all about lockers,never had one so I will look into your advise.

Cheers for that
