Seems ok but my truck is off the road at the mo cause the chassis shaping session I had was er well a bit intense

Hope to be doing a bit of reversing at speed while attched to a tree at the weekend

If that works I'll put the pics up for you

briggie · 22-07-2010, 22:50

come on folks , the poll is up and running , and will close in 5 days

extreme-4x4 · 22-07-2010, 22:59

think the voting options are quite limited, to be fair. modded trucks are not everyone's cup of tea

but of the modded trucks. red is best and really cant be arsed to list all the mods, nor compete for a win.

i built mine for me , not for prizes . i love mine to bits and its the only car/truck ive owned that feels part of me .

like an old carpenter and his hammer.

it does what i want it to do , and go any place i want to go. if it fails on something or wont get to what i need to do i'll change things so it will

i like pete's too. and im sure he feels the same about his. but i guess we all do

Fair point, well made

Just one small detail you got wrong

BLACK is best

Once you have black there's no going back

You knows it

Works a treat, it's just a dirty great STRONG idler

MudLifeCrisis · 23-07-2010, 00:14

I'd love to do all sorts of mods to mine but it is at the end of the day the family car. Used everyday for work, does a lot of towing both at work and for holidays so priorities are safety and reliability.

I've done only subtle mods since I bought it in 1999 to help with ground clearance ,mud tyres and window tints for the kids when they were younger.

It's fitted with DAB,DVDs and and a multichanger which have kept everyone happy for the 125000 miles that we have travelled in it.

So nothing to vote for but to me it's the best car in the world ;O)
