Just thought that I should finally put up my Lux'. It's going to be a relatively slow build seeing as I'm a uni student and don't work full time, but the money I do earn goes into textbooks -__- Anyways here are some photos






Was gonna put more up but it seems my laptop doesn't want to work well

Nice start mate, remember we all start somewhere.

My brother had one the same a 92 model wacked in a 2" lift and 33's it was a beast

[Mattya]

A real truck. Bullet proof!

[jarrad2314]

Well the main priority is to get a steering damper and new tires on it. After that I'm looking at 2" rockcrawler springs and possibly 32's, not to mention the bud's customs sliders

Yeah definitely new leafs on the agenda, just gotta save the money, I'm looking at the rockcrawler lift kit available on 4WD1. Probably not going for a turbo for a while, just don't have the extra cash.

[jarrad2314]

So it's been a while since I updated, thought I might as well throw this up. Threw on a set of Mickey MTZ's and a toolbox to get all of the crap out from behind my seats


The toolbox


Mickeys :D:D

Well had mad fun the other week on the Watagans trip with Kyle, got the damage bill yesterday from my mechanic. Busted my water pump, alternator, timing belt needs doins, the usual basically, about $1400 in total though

Well it's been about a month or so since she was stolen and I reckon she's truly gone. Insurance didn't want to hear about it so got nothing from them, but a few thousand later I am the owner of a 97' 2.8T GQ. Loving the extra space I didn't have in the single cab, but I still miss the old girl

Why did the insurance not pay out? Weren't you covered?

[jarrad2314]

The policy wasn't recorded as being fire and theft, even though we were paying for it

Bummer Jarrad, she was pretty capable.

Something to keep in mind when selecting any future insurance company. Did you pursue it with the company in question or even consumer affairs? If they were taking your money it would seem that they accepted the risk.
