Six months and $1200 bucks and Here it is

Hey guys

Just a quick thanks for all the advise and Information on the site. I bought this thing six months ago threw some Maxxis muddies on it 30/9.5 inch, wound up the front and reset the rear about 3 inches all up. Bought a bull bar for a $100.00 (I know what a bargain).

Next is a snorkel and a winch.

Once again thanks

Cheers

Lukas

Well done on the bullbar!

It looks good and wouldn't have cost the earth to do.

Nice color also. I hope your tyres to be as good as mine (we have the same tyres but i have smaller). Good luck to your trips

Also as far as i see your steering boxe is losing some oil (right side driver). Like mine but dont mind just check sometimes the oil if its empty and put a new one.

care to give some more details on what exactly you did to the rear to get that lift?

looks good mate. where did you get the bullbar, also?

The tyres are awsome, as to the bullbar I got chatting to a guy at big river after I resued him (recoverd) his Hilux out of a masive bog hole he said that he used to have a Feroza and he rolled it. He had the bullbar and I got it for a $100 bucks. It had no indicators in it so I went to subercheep auto $40 bucks and some fitting amd it's done.

Good pickup on the steering box leak. I have not got around to fixing it yet It's one of those things that will never get done.

As to my springs in the rear, I had them reset. They get pulled out taken apart, retensioned and put together with an extra leaf. The ride is awsome and I can load the car to the max with camping stuff.

I do however have to replace the shocks all around for some longer ones. Can anyone make any recomendations?

Cheers

Being an F300, Commodore wagon rear shocks will fit the back. I think the ute ones might too, which come in heavy duty varieties- do a search I posted a whole thread on them with the lengths.

Nice truck mate, job well done.
Not sure if you can get them in Oz but I fitted 3" longer Procomp ES3000's
after my lift. Very good performers, nice ride and flex.

Yes, you can get Procomps over here- not very common but some places do sell them. Do you have a part number for future reference?

Hi David, I chucked the boxes away so next time I'm crawling underneath
I'll look for any numbers on the shocks.
