Phantoms Lux
Posted: Thu, 07 Oct 2010 6:06 +0000Well I know its a lil late but with my up coming mods I thought I would start a thread on my lux.
to start off Its a dec 2005 V6 manual SR5 I got it off a mate dirt cheap with the suspension done which was a 3in lift from Wizard Performance with Total Chaos UCAs and sway away coilovers and EFS rear (very soft)
and my mate had also put the TJM bar and snorkel on.
From here I put 32in Cooper STTs on wit the only had problems being them touching the swaybar at full lock.
Then I found a decent set of sliders on Outerlimits and quickly had them on they have proven to be very strong but I probably should of had them powder coated as I always seem to be repainting them LOL.
After that came the bigest change off road the ARB rear airlocker (I now have a front locker ready to go in too)
Getting sick of the huge fuel bills and with the other halfs permission I put Direct Injection Gas on the lux for a great saving in cost of driving around and still returning 14L per 100Ks, Got me from brisbane to sydney for $100
After being sick af having the spare in the tray and the poor departure angle of the std rear bar I got a Kaymar rear bar at an awsome price off a mate and threw it on, Its a great bar and very strong.
Bar a few other small things (UHF, Spotties, Underbody protection ect) thats it tfor now.
Cheers Ben
