my project

[Madmark]

quite a few mods have gone on it the short time I have owned this so thought id do a build thread

bought the truck back in the summer as always had an itch to scratch in the 4x4 world

the day I bought it home, full mot and 6 months tax for £1800! no rot any where!


first mod was bull bar and huge spot lights
then full service right through


then 25mm spacers



wooden centre console so gloss black it was to be


poly bush the arb as they were goosed


then more power so up'd boost to 15 psi so ment I needed boost gauge


next were the bigger mods, diy snorkel and that needed holes to be cut etc


with jimny air filter right on top


next was procomp steering damper


wheels and tyres came up at a bargain and a full set of 5 nearly new!
then for winter 42" led light bar and omg! awesome



main beam oe lights


led bar on


next was to make the ride better so opted for rough country +2 all round and very happy with the choice as brilliant shocks



now the biggy I wanted hidden winch mout so set about making one ready for new winch




more updates yet but better do some work lol

Quality pal. Looks good. I had all intentions of doing similar but all I've managed, apart from servicing, is rack up the miles :-/
One day.....

Brilliant mate looks a tidy truck. Steering damper made a big diffrence on mine

 

[Madmark]

Steering damper is very good mod. Saves the arm ache when off roading haven't finished write up yet as run outta time at lunch.

oh no you didn't

Re first comment, yes winch bumpers is a cracking idea, you csn get some really tidy bumpers with winch space inc but they are like 800 a pop

I saw those bumpers sitting at a Ricks and I couldn't help myself, Rick was gonna put it on his off-roader but his rear winch stopped that happening so :augie

next winch went in




silly mod that helped with pay and play days to stop exhaust bunging up when in deep mud in reverse very simple to do but welder essential



next more height needed this came with torsion tweek to front and then rear with 1.5" spring spacers followed by full 2" body lift

before


after



wasn't happy with snorkel so bought universal cold feed induction which put filter back in bay but I had to silicone the ends to make it water tight, and new snorkel top on its way



for fun I added a exhaust valve so at touch of a button its silenced or straight through sounds great under load wide open lol




this is her today not sure what else to do now accept enjoy lol

 

[jims-terrano]

[AlexD333]

Not seen that exhaust mod before, cracking pics though :thumb2
