  • I am happy with the TJM steps but the edges need linishing. Looks like the ARB ones are better in that regard but they seem to sit lower too.

        • Great shots, looks like a good area will have to get out that way and have a look.

            are you going next weekend with the other PP's, next time I'm in town hopefully can get some PP's together to do a trip.
            P.S. some wicked pinstripping happened.

            Cheers Derek

            • My latest edition to the beast with the Max Trax mounting system to the rear wheel, not keen on having mud/sand on the roof after using, and yes I like blue..

                  • Looking good Derek.

                    Hutch, looks nothing like yours. Dereks tracks are blue, on the left and the car is a far superior colour.

                      • Got a reply back from Buddy at Buds-Customs for sliders and he should have ones finished for the 150 soon @ $840 pair + freight. Hopefully soon is soon.

                          Where did you find these ones? evilbay?

                          Ive been looking for some HID's high beams (plan is to do the XGT's as well when I get a chance). From what I can find al lot of the ballasts are not very water friendly, but one seller on ebay has alledged "waterproof" ballasts (thejazztrax10).

                            Hi Christo,
                            I bought these thru Offroad Industries, they fitted well with the ballast on the back of the bulb.

                            Cheers Derek

                            • yee haa mate.

                              rear E Locker in. i didn't get any pics of the install. or the special switch. i'll leave that up to your expert photography skills.

                              front recovery points are on. wasn't too hard, but we did trim some bits to get them on.

                              the red bits look cool and the blue rig. blue for cool, red for recovery, and yellow under the bonnet for servicing. lol.

                                awesome work with the battle scars. you'll have to post some pics up of those.

                                i don't think you left a corner unscuffed.
