Haha I wish I was in Australia, my friend is there now for 8 months, he sends me a picture a day of quad cab Hilux!
Continuation of version 1.0:
Skys off-road rear hanger kit, and I did reverse F150 springs. Built a rear bumper.
By this time I was still trailering it to go wheeling, it didn’t really make sense to keep it on 33s if I was going to trailer it. I didn’t like the push pull steering, I was starting to crawl more, and I wanted some more flex. So this started the first phase, version 1.0. Truss the axle with Trail gear stuff and rebuild, highsteer, new hanger and boomerang shackles and RUF springs to move the axle a few inches forward. Build a square shaft and find some tires.
It sat too high, so I took a leaf out and then wheeled it without lifting the back more, because I’m impatient. Tires are 36×12.5 bias swampers. This trail is around Apsley.
Thumbs bs up for a fixed floor, now it can hold my camping gear. Took it up to Minden trails when I first got it. It was in the spring and really well, slid around and smashed up a lot of the body on that trip. After that I got a winch.
Thanks guys, I had a build on SONTT, so I’m just moving it over. The truck is nearing completion so I have a lot of updates to show from the last few years.
Fixed the floor, sorry it’s upside down. Welded in sheet metal and bed lined it.
Orange Saphhire was so rusty, you know when you get way too excited purchasing something and don’t look it over well enough? Case in point, an Ontario 4runner with 560,000 kms
