Hi name is Daniel from SE QLD. I've had my Feroza F300 Nrrow Track for about 7 months know. I have to say I am really impressed by it for a small 4x4.

Mod: 2" lift in rear by Aussie Super Springs
Torsion Bar wound up to suit
15x7 Sunraysia ROH
Lukey extractorers
2" exhaust
Sway bar removed

Furture Mod: TJM Shocks
Front Diff Welded
BFG Muddies
Snorkel

Enquirery: What is the easiest way to get more performance.
I have been to Crystal Creek x-mas 2004 come out with broken engine mount.
Landcruiser Mountain Park May 2005 come out with no exhaust + 3hr trip to get home.

nice pic mate. :)
i've owned mine for nearly a year, and i too am impressed by it's off road performance (even though i broke it... :lol: ). a lot of my mates pay out on me about the lil feroza (not a real 4wd etc), but once i take them for a strap through the sand mines up here they bite their lip. :twisted:

welcome to the forum. I'll leave this up for a week, and then move your intro to the right spot for ya.

I had TJM shocks and 30 BFG muds on my narrowtrack, and I reckon you wont go wrong.

Hey Daniel nice pic mate! Have you got anymore? I'm about to get a 2" suspension lift on mine and am after photos of Feroza's with only that done (no body lift) so I know what the finished result is going to be like! What tyres you running?

Heath...do you have another Feroza now??? Or is "have" a typo/dream... :D (I fixed it - Typo)

BenDover, I think the easiest thing to do is lift by suspension. I am only running Hankook 215/75/15 All Terain. The main reason for lifting was so I can get some bigger tyres under BFG or Cooper Muddies. I do have heaps of pics of my travells, if you have e-mail send me your address and i'll send you some more pics. Have you been on any trips (local)?.

Hey Daniel,

Yes my email address is b.horner@qnc.qld.gov.au

No I haven't been on any real 4wd trips as such. I mainly do beach work at this stage as my Feroza is still stock and I dont want to break anything yet! :)

What size tyres you planning on going for? I would love to see what a 2" lift with 30's on would look like...

Cheers
Ben

Yeh definetly 30's but will try for 31's. I have only recently done to work to my Feroza. All my previous trips were all on stock gear. I think you will be suprised on how good your feroza can go. I have never done sand running all mud and dirt "so much fun". If you want a good short trip to test your Feroza go to Crystal Vale 4x4 park near Murwullimbar, go out back of Nerang , about 1.5 - 2 hrs from Beenleigh, good day trip. I'll have to send some more pics when i get home.

Hey I just noticed you live in edens landing! Where abouts? It wouldn't be in the units in overland drive would it? I have seen a white Fez with white sunraisers on at those units. There has also been a dark charcoal coloured one in there too? Mr bro-in-law lives just round the corner from there..

Yeh that's me, my inlaws own the Charcoal but don't like to get it too dirty (mother inlaws car). Their our trip buddies they also have A Subu 85 tourer with a 2" lift kit , it has more clearance then the Feroza. Should get together one time, but pretty busy until the end of June.

Awesome. Still keen on some pics hey but I might have a peek at the Fez next time I go past...I own a white widetrack Feroza with a bullbar. More often than not you'll probably see it towing a boat on our way fishing! :)

Hey regarding your springs...what brand are they? I presume "Aussie Springs" are the mob who did it for you?

Best way 2 get 2 Chrystalvale is to head straight down the highway and take the Murwillumbah exit.

yeah but a nice way to get there is to travel up the range and through the Numinbah valley.

trouble with that is with 31 you run the risk of being defected for not being road worthy, or taken of the road for not complying, also not being coverd with insurance. so you way up the odds 31s, or pay the price
