    Looks Great Yota,

    The underbody Guards look good. I have the Ironman underbody protection, I think yours look allot better / stronger.

    I had a quick scan through the previous posts and could not see what lift height and tyre size you went for, looks higher than 2" and the tyre look 70 or more......can you confirm?

    Update: Re-Re-Read.....see 265/70/217 tyres. Nice.

    thanks

    Bernie.

Any idiot could see that the one they took off was by far protecting more than the one they put on. Another job for tomorrow, put the gaurd back on.





    Lucky you got the TG150 back as the ARB transfer guard doesn't cover anymore than the OEM one.

    Car looks good!

    also picked up this silicone key case off ebay for the grand total of $4 including postage. the key was starting to get pretty scratched already so this should keep it looking good a bit longer. they case is actualy advertised as suiting the camery, hense the hole for the boot release button.

    Also got ARB to install the suspension while they were at it, was going to do this myself but ran out of time. Very happy withe ride so far, heavy duty Kings in the rear and standard duty raised in the front, with Koni raid shocks all round.
    The rears are big bastards, had the same on the 90 and never felt any shock fade even after hours of corogations with the trailer on.

    the winch come with a wireless remote that I didnt expect, but im not to sure about the installation of it though. the wireless reciever is mounted under the bonet and stays pluged into the switch box where the normal controler goes. I'll probably cut the plug off and hard wire it inside the controler box. I think I'll also try to move the box under the bonet somewhere.

    Rear Bar
    I guess this raised my satisfaction with ARB bit. They had to modify the wheel carrieres to accept the speedy rims, they replaced the wheels studs with longer ones, welded and painted, come up bretty good, if they hadent told me I wouldnt of picked it.

    Picked her up this morning after her 2 day stay at ARB Newcastle, pretty happy at the moment. Bolted on the ariels and lights to see the final picture, now just have to spend tommorow try to wire them all up.

    Overall I'm pretty happy with ARB Newcastle, but there were a few Friday arvo mistackes. Nothing major but considering the money I had just handed over I had expected a bit more.
    Drivers side from wheel well, plactic not reatached fully, I had to push in a clip properly and bolt and cable tie it in better to stop the wheel rubbing on full lock.
    At the rear bar the left mudflap was bolted to the kaymar braket, but the right side had been missed, like I said nothing major, But....

    yer, I just put the screws back in. the Kaymar goes on next week so the bracket will be coming off too, we'll see if there is anything in the kit that fills the holes or if they just put the screws back in aswell. The cover comes off real easy and looks much better IMO

    Getting exited now, the truck goes into ARB on Thursday for the fit out. Then a very busy weekend to wire everything else up before we head off for a week. Just waiting for the blackwidow drawers to arrive and stage 1 will be complete.
