Future mods.
Sliders (on soon)
Extractors and new exhuast (on soon)
Roof lights
Ducks old 33"s hopefully
Possible higher suspension lift

[Twisty]

Looks cool BTN....specially with the 33's on it!!

How much did you pay for it originally.....look's like it was setup really well to start with...

[Boxa]

Looks sweet as with the rubber on in the last pic

[boof]

looks good with the new rubber on

nice lux there, the pics from yesturday didnt work out to well, o well

[BushBoy]

Looks good 8)
certainly an improvement on the first pic,and plenty of room for more mods too.
33"s would be good

Yeh thanks, there actually evil hitmans 34" JTs in that pic

It cost 16000 to buy. Most probaly say thats too expensive being a petrol. But we couldnt find any one is as good condition for cheaper. Even stock Luxes were the same price so i thought it was a bonus having all the gear on it. And got used little off road, the bloke was a trout fisherman and u could tell it hadnt had a hard life

lol id rather be fishing a ned

[BushTuckerNed]

[slowlux]

Got my rear bar on

http://www.4wdlinks.com.au/albums/bushtuckerned/aej.sized.jpg

Also got my new exhaust and extractors on today. ended up with a 2 1/4" pipe. It was wet today so i couldnt put my foot down and get traction to test the power. But it seems to go better than wat it was b4 with that muffler :-X

The next job is to put sum rear mudflaps back on and the sliders. Also a few other little mechanical jobs

[HnM]

Better get some mack mudflaps to compliment the lights ;)


And did you have a few too many beers before lining the bar up ??? ;D

thanks.

well Dave at Hardcore 4x4 in Mitchem did the bars. took him a few hrs. pretty neat job i reckon. i think he sed the rear bar was harder, or more time consuming than the front

[BushTuckerNed]

Well i got my sliders on. they look good as and are real strong

no pics yet till they are painted up real nice

heres just one so u get the idea tho ;D

http://www.4wdlinks.com.au/albums/album506/DSCF2553.sized.jpg

They were made by Dave at Hardcore 4x4 in Mitchem. Thanks dave and steve for putting them on for me

is the plate on top chequerplate ?

[BushTuckerNed]

nah its just flat, but Dave welded a little dot of weld evenly down it for grip. but ithink thats getting replaced for the skate board grippy stuff

[taziiy]

that non slip tape wears out after continual use mine did on the alloy steps i had

[-BJ-]

It will be good to see the finished product ! Whats next on the list ?

[BushTuckerNed]

[4xgold0]

me likes them very much BTN :o they look sweet

[Boxa]

Nice looking job ;)

[DIRTY]

awesome work there ;D

[BushTuckerNed]

bit of an update on mine

just put sum 4" extendded steel braided brake lines in after splitting the other ones

http://www.4wdlinks.com.au/albums/album546/DSC00009.sized.jpg

started making extended shackles on the rear on the weekend, didnt get it finished but they will be in soon

hoping to get about a 1" lift and more flex out of them ready for the 32" Simex ETs that i will be getting shortly 8) ;D ;D

then later down the track ill get new springs, most likley sum IFS rears all round

[RedGQ]

What are those sliders BTN?

Are they a brand name or are they custom built?

Thats what I'm after for BigPat. A simple but fat tube with a minimal step that sits up nice and high and is black.

They look good. ;D

Cheers ;)

[BushTuckerNed]

they are just custom built. 350Rangie and sclarke7171 on the forum made them for me ;D

feel more comfortable with them there protecting the sills :)

[RedGQ]

They look good. Is there any pics that are a little more detailed. I might get some ideas for mine when I get around to them.

[Fishin_Dan]

There's been a few posts about making sliders on the site... Have a search through for sliders and you should find heaps of info.

I've already read it, and am getting ready to replace my steps bolted to my sills with a set once I make em!

[BushTuckerNed]

just got a few then. can see a bit more in these

heres how the pipe that goes to the chassis is welded to the slider

http://www.4wdlinks.com.au/albums/album502/DSC00011.sized.jpg

the pipe closest to the car had a U shape cut out of it to get the chassis mount as high up as possible

mounting to the chassis

http://www.4wdlinks.com.au/albums/album502/DSC00012.sized.jpg

was gonna go the U bracket with the bolts at the top only, but for the 4wdriving i do, getting hung up on a rock is not gonna happen often and not a real concern, so a simple bolt top and bottom was the go

theres about 2mm between the fold in the sill and the pipe to the chassis, getting them up nice and high

http://www.4wdlinks.com.au/albums/album502/DSC00014.sized.jpg

just a side on shot

http://www.4wdlinks.com.au/albums/album502/DSC00015.sized.jpg

if u want any more, let me know :D

[-BJ-]

How much did the brake lines cost, and how did you go bleeding the brakes ?

[crankycruiser]

They look the goods Ned.. :D

Might pinch a few ideas of them for mine ;D

[BushTuckerNed]

How much did the brake lines cost, and how did you go bleeding the brakes ?

the brake lines cost me 75 each, for the same length in rubber was about 40-50 bucks. theres only about half a dozen ppl who have the machines to be able to do road legal brake lines in melb apprently, so the prices were pretty similar.

had no probs bleeding the brake lines

[-BJ-]

had no probs bleeding the brake lines


Good to hear 8)

The sliders look good Ned! If you could send me some pics to Fishin_Dan@ausfish.com.au that would be cool.

[RedGQ]

What have you used as the step? It's obviouysly not checkerplate the common choice. It look grippy though. It looks like the holes have been punched up from underneath? Was this also made custom or does this form of plate have a name? A closer pic of the step surface would be cool.

Cheers ;)

I think the guy who made tham put "spot welds" along the step.... I think I saw that somewhere back in the thread...

yeh its just a piece of flat bar, in the long run, skate board grippy stuff was gonna get stuck on them. but i like it how it is with just teh spot welds, and its just tacked on to the pipes. the flat bar doesnt go all the way to ends, which i reckon looks pretty good

[BushTuckerNed]

They are pretty grippy mate

And they are spot weld on top

NO SLIPPAGE ;D ;D


did u notice the grip wen u were halfway out the door wen i had the rear bar resting on the ground and front wheel right up, halfway up a hill at dissa :P

[Thommo the Hut]

I had a look at simex´s website and can´t kinda find the tyres you´ve just got. Are they brand new? (they look new from here) What are they and how much were they?

[Reddo]

Ha, they weren't his, im sure he was just checking to see if a 33 would clear, as his simex are about the same. Might want to ask Humps about "those" MTR's ;D

[sumkindaroadkill]

Nice looking rig champion ;) and being a lux makes it all that much sweeter.

Tyres are awesome - I reckon they're sexy little buggers and dont be surprised if you get a stray dog stuck in them treads - man they have some cut ;D

ned, Mate of mine in canberra has a 2.8L LN106 running 33x12.5" muddies...

He's got em to fit with a 2" body lift + 2" spring lift, they JUST touch his front mudflaps on full lock, but a bit of loving with a hammer would fix that. ;)

Dont forget, you cant get home made shackles to pass ADR's and all it takes is an anal RTA bloke and your up the creek....

I'll be running 33's eventually on my truck (probably 33x10.5 to reduce any issues with scrubbing and cos their slightly cheaper....

Plan to do a 2" lift + 2" body lift to make em fit... and whacking 4.88:1 diffs under it to help it pull!


Oh, didnt mention, My 2.8D might be slower than yours, but i guarentee its worth more, has more torque and ill be laughing as i drive past you at the servo :P

[taziiy]

the look chunky there ned but should do the job for you in the mud

thanks for that

ill get them to fit pretty good with a few gaurd mods at the front with just the 2" body lift. which will be good


as for laughing passing the servo?? ill be laughing at you coz you have to fill p for double the price, i might have to fill up more but its still cheaper ;D

[ferremit]

65L of diesel every 550kms is still cheaper than 60L of gas every 250kms... not to mention i can get diesel in places like birdsville, Oodnadatta, Coober Pedy, Mt Dare, Innaminka, Camerons corner......

[BushTuckerNed]

who sed i get 250ks out of gas? ;)


i still think that works out to be cheaper anyway?? ???

[BushTuckerNed]

Weeeeeeeelll i just picked up these

http://www.4wdlinks.com.au/albums/album274/DSC00411.sized.jpg
;D

My springs will prob be to short to make these effective. So i might wait till i get new ones to put them on. i might put the rear ones on just to have a look tho

[THOMO.IN.A.GQ]

bit of an update one mine

i just got my rear diff rebuilt becasue it wasnt installed right in the first place >:(

and ive been trying to work out why one spottie wont work. most likley the globe

I put a headlight upgraded loom in last nite and it made an improvment. my reflectors arent that great tho.

now my top spots wont work >:( , just need to tap into the new wiring looms high beam. I dont see why it wouldnt work b4 tho, becasue the original wiring loom stays in there and acts as a switch


and i puntured a simex :(, bird nested my winch cable, snapped off my radio aerial and broke the handle on the canopy :( :(

all going my way lol

oh and my front left caliper needs rebuilding

[tom_286]

when it rains, it poors! dont worry scotty, it'll be all good soon :D as long as you can get it started :-\

[-BJ-]

Thats no good Ned, sounds a little bit like my Lux :-\

Dont you run your spotties from your relay ???

[BushTuckerNed]

yeh. but what i was meant to say is. i need to hook the wire in the high beam wire so they come on with the high beam.

should be sweet tho. if i find sum time tomoz ill go to pjs and weld a tab on the rear bar for one of my reverse lights ;D

[hi-lux91]

Thats a nice lookin lux...

Hey Ned, what sort of rear bar have you got there??

[BushTuckerNed]

its a tjm one ;). i love it. i hit it against everything and has protected my tub nicely. its missing all the paint on the side from keeping me off banks ;D

[tom_286]

he isnt lying there! the day he got it he hit a wall at safeway, twice ;D and has saved his arse more than a few times out on the tracks. i think i need one for the middy... :-\

haha....i definately need one then. Trees keep jumping behind me whenever I reverse.

[BushTuckerNed]

i dont often reverse into things. but just friday nite my tub was full over tyres so i coulnt see anything and i snapped off half of the handle on my canopy. most annoying.

the bar helps heaps wen u slide into a rut or sumthing

[-BJ-]

yeh. but what i was meant to say is. i need to hook the wire in the high beam wire so they come on with the high beam.

should be sweet tho. if i find sum time tomoz ill go to pjs and weld a tab on the rear bar for one of my reverse lights ;D


Ok, gotcha ;)

Think i might have to start talking about winning the lottery...

Ray talks about MT/Rs with weak side walls, and i stake one.

Tonight, after asking about the rear bar, I backed into a bloody fire hydrant and punched a hole in the tailgate. :-\ :-\

bit of an update one mine

i just got my rear diff rebuilt becasue it wasnt installed right in the first place >:(

and ive been trying to work out why one spottie wont work. most likley the globe

I put a headlight upgraded loom in last nite and it made an improvment. my reflectors arent that great tho.

now my top spots wont work >:( , just need to tap into the new wiring looms high beam. I dont see why it wouldnt work b4 tho, becasue the original wiring loom stays in there and acts as a switch


and i puntured a simex :(, bird nested my winch cable, snapped off my radio aerial and broke the handle on the canopy :( :(

all going my way lol

oh and my front left caliper needs rebuilding



What upgrade loom did you use and does that let you use higher wattage globes? Sorry to jump your thread but I hate my lux's headlights!

i sold it to him :) , had it in my old 4runner, it was a cheapy type like they sell on ebay, it does the job and makes a bit of difference, you can run standard globes or bigger if you want.

[BushTuckerNed]

wat dan sed. my reflectors arent that great but the loom is. Much whiter light.


and now all my spotties work. woohoo

[tom_286]

nice candles ;D

i can say the same to you. candleless boy :P


shut up! the only ones they left were the big ones!

[BushBoy]

They're not candles they're flamethrowers, actually probably any lights are better than my candles, looks good neddy nice n bright. I'm currently upgrading the wiring on mine, it's no good trying to dodge roo's if you can't see them ;D Dad said my cruiser has the volkswagon disease lol

[muddy]

Cool, ta. I have a pair of rally 4000's and 'm happy with them but when I have to dip they're just f***** c***! I was thinking of buying some good lights and some higher wattage globes but would like to see these run off they're own relay set-up. Was dreaming of a HID kit but while i hven't priced it I dread to imagine.

[ferremit]

ive got Narva inserts in my hilux, with the stock wiring, and im more than happy with them ;D

55/100 bulbs... will redo the wiring and run 100/130's later

[BushTuckerNed]

Well the time has come to get my engine rebuilt.

Im just going through the options atm as to what i can do to get more power

[BUG]

I didn't realise you had a wide lense camera with you on that trip :-X

[humpys]

Haha you are all such funny buggers ;D

No really you both made me laugh!!

[BushTuckerNed]

well i pulled my bullbar off this weekend to get my winch out after the cable birds nested

18 bolts and a bit of angle grinding later......it was off


http://www.4wdlinks.com.au/albums/album274/DSC00425.sized.jpg

The engine crane was handy ;D

http://www.4wdlinks.com.au/albums/album274/DSC00429.sized.jpg


Then i put it back on, just gonna get the winch reco'ed


http://www.4wdlinks.com.au/albums/album274/DSC00433.sized.jpg


Been thinking about my engine too. Im thinking if i just not bother stuffing around with different engines, rebuild mine which will work out cheaper and get a front locker instead ;D

[tom_286]

duck and i got pics of the grinding! ill get duck to put them up soon. good plan with getting a front locker i recon scotty.

[blue bundy]

damn pussy sparkies not being able to left a simple bullbar and winch :P

[BushTuckerNed]

i want to be a sparky till im older, not in a wheel chair :D

[tom_286]

http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c28/tmum/Justplaying027.jpg

:P stolen from bryce!

[BushTuckerNed]

Well ive been thinking about my engine.

And i reckon i might just rebuild the 22r with a different cam and get a front locker with the rest of the money i would of used on the engine swap. I figure a locker is going to get me further than a bit more power

thanks to the guys who gave me advice, espicially boof :D

[boof]

Good luck with it all mate be good to see it locked up ;D
Just stay away from my mechanic ;D :'(

[tom_286]

good idea neddy: pssst pssst durka!

[PJ.zook]

Have you looked into frontcuts from a jap importer? It prob cost as much as a rebuild so maybe not.

[BushTuckerNed]

Have you looked into frontcuts from a jap importer? It prob cost as much as a rebuild so maybe not.

nah, the whole idea of ripping my motor out and putting another one in doesnt sound that great to me

[PJ.zook]

If its the same engine, its as easy as staining your parents driveway.

[BushTuckerNed]

Well i have got my contacts to get me a price on a front air locker for me. So i should have one soon ;D ;D


Now i just gotta find a place for the switches, my rear locker switch was never mounted properly becasue i was waiting to get the front locker in.

[BushTuckerNed]

this is my hilux at the moment

http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e336/BushTuckerNed/enginerebuild08.jpg

should have it back by next week

got the price for the locker too ;D, so hopefully ill pick it up when i get my car

[duck]

sweet as ned when will it be done

[boof]

Good to see its underway, hope your mechanic is quicker than mine was :P

Will be interested to hear your thoughts on front verse rear with regard to the lockers when its all fitted up!!

[BushTuckerNed]

sweet as ned when will it be done

i think the lastest at this stage is sunday week, but possbily earlier

[BushTuckerNed]

Good to see its underway, hope your mechanic is quicker than mine was :P

Will be interested to hear your thoughts on front verse rear with regard to the lockers when its all fitted up!!

yeh should be good. i wouldnt mind getting them wired up so you can have the front or rear on seperatly. i think most have the rear as the primary and the front only can be engaged with the rear engaged

[boof]

[Orbit]

sweet as! will be good to be dual locked

[BushTuckerNed]

[MudRhino]

WOW!

With 2 lockers and an engine rebuild we have a vehicle ready for the vic winch!

Go Scotty!

Sweet Scotty! Now you might almost be able to keep up with the middy! :P

[Synergy]

how much did ya pay for the lokka scotty?

[tom_286]

how much did ya pay for the lokka scotty?


Just to let you know, 'lokka' is a brand of diff lock. It's an auto locker type.

[PJ.zook]

Scotty gonna be goin psshht psshht

[BushTuckerNed]

well this arvo i got bored and decided to put my extended shackles in the rear.

the bolts are slighty too long and will hit my gas tank off road i reckon but one is in. i put it on the side my car leaned to :P and now it sits level. my springs are too short so they are just giving the car lift.

but atm my car is sitting out the front with one wheel on the nature strip on top of a 33" (laying down of course :P) and it looks alright

[BushTuckerNed]

put the other shackle in tonite

it lifted the back end up a bit more

http://www.4wdlinks.com.au/albums/album274/DSC00492.sized.jpg

cept my gas tank is too close and the bolts will hit it. so no off roading till i work sumthing out. either gonna try and lift the tank up higher by moving it back and mounting it on the tub, or pull the tank out and put the bolts in the other way

http://www.4wdlinks.com.au/albums/album274/DSC00493.sized.jpg
shackle angle isnt that great atm, but new springs down the track will fix it ;)

[PJ.zook]

Coils would fix it ;D

[BushTuckerNed]

well i got my switches in

decided to take out a vent and put a panel in there with thanks to vince (VinVin) from the forum

http://www.4wdlinks.com.au/albums/album274/IMG_0302.sized.jpg

i also put my fire extinghisher back in, and moved my AM radio

im also gonna get rid of that other vent and put a in cab control for my winch in there

i reckon they look awesome

thanks again vince

[babylux]

Did it affect your air con?:D or dont you guys down south need it

[BushTuckerNed]

i rarely use those vents anyway, and i still have the side vents and the windows :D

[Synergy]

if i did that my gf would complain non stop about how hot it is without vents

[MudRhino]

Very nice Scott!

Wish I had thought of that before I dug holes into my dash :(

[cpt-mud]

looks good ned, will be good to see it back on the tracks.

[PJ.zook]

Noice lookin switches there scotty

[DIRTY]

Damn it, gunna have to fit a front locker now, as too many cars are becoming dual locked!

[Grimsey]

Damn it, gunna have to fit a front locker now, as too many cars are becoming dual locked!

mmmm crunchy bits of CVs

[timespast]

The Pannel looks great, looks factory :d, for incab winch ideas check out 12voltguy.com he has some awsome stuff.

She will be unstopable now she is twin locked, all ya need to do is whip out that 22r for a lexus v8

[BushTuckerNed]

well nothing much has been done lately. but a bit of an update.

my shackles no longer hit the gas tank coz i pulled the tank out and reversed the bolts.

I need longer springs tho, it may be the next item on the list. But ot still flexes ok i think

http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/gqtrav/IMGA0120.jpg

This was taken on the last trip i went on to big river, the first trip out in the hilux for a long long time

Relised that my rear locker leaks internally somewhere.

So it went back to the place that rebuilt my diff and they told me the locker was either water damaged, or bits of metal floating around in there. So 120 dollars worth or parts later..it still doesnt work. So its off to ARB to get sorted out and my front locker finally in on thrusday. Hopefully at a cheaper price becasue the parts they sold me made no effect.

[nate]

awesome lux mate, hopefully one day mine will look that tuff

[BushTuckerNed]

well i thought ill update this a bit


got a in cab winch wired up,

http://www.4wdlinks.com.au/albums/album274/IMG_0840.sized.jpg

lost the other vent, i think it looks good tho

and also put a switch on the grill

http://www.4wdlinks.com.au/albums/album274/IMG_0878.sized.jpg

Not the most ideal spot, i wanted it in the headlight surround so it less vunerable but it was to much stuffing around. this works and it makes life easier

Also getting some mechanical beadlocks this week.

Should be good:D :D

After that, its time for some custom leafs i think

[boof]

Looking good mate. Can tell you dont live in Queensland I need those two vents for the a/c!!!

[Grimsey]

Looking good mate. Can tell you dont live in Queensland I need those two vents for the a/c!!!

you still need them down here... its just the mighty 22r dosnt have the power to run the a/c hehehe

[BushTuckerNed]

i dont use those vents anyway. dont like the air gushing at me.

but i turned my air con on today and it squeels like a pig. So i just opened the windows again. much nicer :D

[Big Boots]

you still need them down here... its just the mighty 22r dosnt have the power to run the a/c hehehe
Like hell they don't. Myne is quite often on while loaded up. My locker switches are in the black plastic dash surround infront of the wiper switch and steering wheel tilt. Love the flex pic

Yeh but you dont mind going slow:D
So why the beadlocks? Have you had problems keeping the tyres on the rims?

[Big Boots]

Yeh but you dont mind going slow:D


http://zook37.iforumer.com/images/smiles/x2fu.gif :D

[BushTuckerNed]

well i needed a new rim. and those chrome ones i have are about 140 to 180 bucks each and no one is sure if they make them still. You can get other ones, but they may be slighty differernt and that would annoy me. Then i saw another one of my rims with a slight buckle so i thought id just get new ones

Down here, we have a lot of ruts and dirt in the bead is a regular occurance. So i thought beadlocks. Plus i can run lower pressures

[dwaynes]

[4wd_Haggis]

Ned like the location of yah locker switches and winch controls where did u get them done. u probly said in post but i only look a pics :D

[bigears]

the beadlocks will work wicked and look sweet to man cant wait to see them on ;)
cheers

[4wd_Haggis]

Just read the post. Vince help ya....Where did u get the pannels made up or what out of to replace the vent......

Cheers

[MudRhino]

Hi Scott, though I am sure you have probably already thought about this and done something about it - if your going to have a front winch switch, be sure to have a cut off for the winch in cabin to ensure some moron doesn't decide to press the button.

[BushTuckerNed]

Scott are you getting them made up or buying second hand?

getting them made up by Dave at Lindsey Tyres in Mt Evelyn

[BushTuckerNed]

Just read the post. Vince help ya....Where did u get the pannels made up or what out of to replace the vent......

Cheers

car audio install places have that plastic that they use for installs. vince just got me some and he helped make up the locker switch panel. Just cut it to size and glued little bits of that plastic to the inside of my vents so we had sumthing to mount the panel too

[BushTuckerNed]

yeh thanks Evan. But that switch is isolated too. Nothing works till i flick the switch in the cabin

[boof]

Well will be interested to see how she goes beadlocked. Its really starting to come along now mate. Will have to get down there for a trip with you guys one day.

[BushTuckerNed]

Thanks Gary. Its getting there

Im keen to see how it goes on beadlocks too. Ill feel more comfortable running at low pressures. Just recently running on 10 psi was a bit worrying:D


And yes you will have to come down for a trip:)

[-BJ-]

Scott do you have any close up pics of your rims ?

[taziiy]

Its looking pretty good ned i just read it from start to finish again i like what you did with the switchs in the vents

[4wd_Haggis]

To easy. i'll look itto that i reckon it looks grouse...dont use the vent anyway..

[Reddo]

Also means that i can reach em when nedly can't :D Greg should of paid for that front locker, we needed it to drag his heavy arsed missan around... only needed the rear when he had a toyota....

[Bond]

The lux is looking great....i would probably buy one now.

I like your locker and incab winch switch but i would hate to the the guy that has to use the switch out the front.

Bond


PS: How does it drive on road compared with Humpy's gq?

The switch on the front is only for when your spooling the cable back on tidying it up, or just to get that last bit in to the rollers or onto a hook.

Atm its a bit sloppy on the road. And it doesnt run the best on gas. It shudders a bit but which i need to sort out.

Her car drives fine on the road coz its a maller :p

[-BJ-]

Sweet as, dont forget the pics ;)

[Bond]

"The switch on the front is only for when your spooling the cable back on tidying it up"

Good idea....i'm guessing u have a kill switch inside so it cant be unspooled when your parked or something.

[BushTuckerNed]

yeh bond i got a kill switch in the car


Well here are my rims

Not the best photo

Picked them up from Dave at Lindsey Tyres yesterday and so far im really happy with them.

I was told that beadlocks dont balance up all that good but these are better than my 31" ATs. When we spun the first one up it needed no weights at all. They all drive smooth as car tyres on the road.

Took them for a test last nite after the rain we had. Cockpit and blowhard at toolangi were a bit slippery at times and i slid into a few ruts pretty hard and have no dirt in the bead :D :D

[boof]

Good stuff mate they look the part and by the sound of it do the job as well

[duck]

ned thats horn

[bigears]

looks sweet man :)

[taziiy]

they look sweet

[MudRhino]

Those rims looked great on the last trip Scott!

With all these mods you'll be ready for comps in no time.

Great work!

This is one of two trucks on this forum that I truly admire.

You just got to get that spray paint off of your gas tank :p

[BushTuckerNed]

Thanks Evan

The gas tank is now black. I got over the NED :p

Ive been thinking about comps. Maybe next year we will see what happens:D


Ive given my new winch controls a bit of a work out lately on a resucue mission to gembrook and 2 trips. They work great, so convienent having them there.


And the beadlocks are great too. The last trip i ran my tyres at 6 psi for a day and watching the video that T90 USSR made and a few pics, its good to see the simex moulding over rocks.

Also that bog hole at tallarook, i found glass sitting in my beadlocks. So i wont be going thru there again :rolleyes:

Well bit of an update

I entered the Gembrook Nav run last weekend with Big Red Toy (Andrew) as my navi and his mates in another patrol as the second car. First event i have done as a driver. We placed 3rd which got me trophy and a set of Lightforce 170s.

So ill be trying to get them on the car sumwhere ready for the next Nav Night ive entered:D :D :D . With Tom as my winch bitch, we will be called Team Pisslux :rolleyes: , didnt really put alot of effort into it.

For this, im going to get a dual battery set up and im looking for either a rollbar for the tub, or a 4 point cage to go in the back in place of the back seats...just in case.

Should be good. Go Team Pisslux!
