Hey All,
Been sitting back and watching this site for a while, but decided I should speak up.
It's good to finally find other people who drive rockys/ferozas and actually take pride in them.
My 4by:
'86 F75 Rocky 2.8 DL N/A (Naturally Asmatic) 310,000kms
Alloy bull bar, side steps, scrub bars, roof spotlight bar.
Exractors and 2 1/2 inch exhaust.
Uni filter.
Lovells Leafs all round and Rancho 9000x adj.
Sunraysias with BFG No-Terrains (soon to be replaced with Wrangler MTR's)
2 x Hella Ralley 4000 (Bullbar), 4 x Hella Comet 75's (roof)
Snorkel (3 inch mandrel bent one piece stainless steel... looks shmick'o)
Big Red air comp (Under bonnet)
GME 3400 UHF, Nokia Car kit.
Jackaroo (Montery) bucket seats with armrests
Custom draw system/parcel shelf (Under construction)
Panasonic stereo with stacker.
There are a lot of other little things that make this 4wd unique.
I have rebuilt the Engine, Gearbox, Transfer, Front diff,... every thing almost. Religiously serviced.
Exceptional 4WD and much easier/comfortable to deal with around the city during the week than some other 4wd's.
It's a pity Daihatsu and the general populus never realised this until it was to late.
Future mods:
Finish everything I started
(Rockslides, Air tank,... etc)
Re-spray... one day.
Air lockers... Curently looking into. Have a design all I need is some time and dosh to buy a second hand diff and centre to experiment with. Anybody got old ones lying around?? (I have a mill and a lathe in the shed... No hate mail please!)
Probably more just can't think of them off the top of my head.
Ohh, Turbo intercooled motor if/when I wear this one out.
Yep that'll do it I reckon...
Be good to catch up with other people around south oz (Adelaide) for some 4wheeling some time.
Catch ya,
Tristo.
