Having exact same Triton, (inc. colour), with no mods as yet.

Can I ask who and how much on lift?

Looks much improved with that raked look removed.

Here's a link to a Triton that has also been done up and looking good, saw it on Trademe a while ago, has since not been put back on for auction. Some useful mods that look good, anyway good photos.

Enjoy

firegod...hope ur as happy as me with ur truck...the guys that did the lift are called ON TRACK 4X4 there in melb and i cant say a bad thing about them there workmanship is amazing it all looks factory...the body lift was $1000..including extended brake lines and all the blocks fitted..then they had 2 mod the winch bar 2 suit the lift..that was $200 or there abouts ..and then to lift the torsion bars was $20:)..so all up $1220......the tyres also gave me another inch so all up its been lifted 3inch and i think thats all right ..any higher and i think that it would look funny thats just my 2 cents..but besides that iam happy with the end product

Price sounds good, nice to have a benchmark to work around.

You're right about the lift, they already have an appearance of being rather large, any taller and it would start to look ridiculous, probably draw some unwanted attention as well.

I am only looking for a mild lift to get that bit more advantage, otherwise I have found the clearance as stock to be pretty good and the bash plates and stock chrome bar stand up better then I originally thought they would.

... and yep, I am really happy with mine, has proven to be very sturdy. Like driving a very comfy tank!

Nice work all up, given me some ideas.

Thanks Overkill....

for $5500.00 your triton can look like that even got kits in stock

where are u?



EDIT - Ignore that.... I found your links in sig. (D'oh!)


Geez I am only at Austral. Will have to pop over and see you.

nice plate

I am sick of picking Charades outta my grill.

Just finished doing the torsion bars. About 40mm.

I was told I could go about 50mm but this would be stretching the friendship with the stops, ride etc. 40mm also brings the truck to level ride front - rear.

(Must remember to get an apprentice to assist with measuring!)

So the ball is rolling, next stop a visit to My 4X4 for some more ideas...



(Bonus for days off in the middle of the week... Wife is not home!)

so ur off 2 a great start more height:)..so how much gap have u got between ur bump stops and the arm....have u got pics?

All these tritons are looking a little similar, here are a few pics of mine

Have done some other work since and have more to do. Great work and play ute, just need to get out and ablout more

I have also removed the tie downs on the rear for the tonneau loops to give it a cleaner look and make washing a little easier. It looks a lot cleaner i think.

ggtriton
were did you get the plugs from and how much i have wanted to do that since i got the ute.
thanks mate

I ordered them through blueys ute world. When they turned up they are a ford product from their au range. You get ten in a pack from memory and you will need two packs and have a couple spare. I think they set me back $58 delivered. Get some touch up paint and give them a few coats before installing.
I used a pair of pliers to hold the plastic lug so as i drilled it out it would not spin and damage the paint under it, paint a little extra paint in the hole once removed and push in plug while wet to seal and stick. Under the lug there was some white glue or putty, it is stubborn to remove but can be scraped off carefully. Makes it lokk 100% better.

Awesome idea with the plugs replacing the ton/tie down points..

Shall endevour to get some up to date pics of my truck..

Any other Paj owners feeling threatened by this sudden influx of Tritons?



Scott

Its ok scott, u can still come and play with us..........

Arvo off and had to see if I could notice any difference...
Off to Appin with the Brother-In-Law.

Re TUFF TRI request...
Upper...

Appx. 20mm gap.

Lower...

appx. 30mm gap.

You can make out how much work the rubber was doing...

What I noticed was a better ability to put the front wheels up onto rocks, a much firmer front end ride, as you would expect - and which I liked. I didn't expect such a difference, but little bit of extra clearance cut down on a lot of those awkward noises from underneath, less bounce and felt real nice in the steering.


Some play pics from today.
