so why a hilux,was it free.?.your going backwards. the rear diff centre has bolt issues. im told. plus,when you doing a s.a.s. & coil swap.??..i think you lost the plot,the 79 was bad enough,now you support ifs. yes,,i know,,we have to buy/support toyota,regardless of how bad they are..mitsubishi is a better vehicle. or a dodge power wagon.. id have the later..were mot all caravan towing gray nomads yet..ill keep my s/duty..

@phantomwalker8251 3 жыл бұрын

annoying useless space,tub sides. yanks have boxes accessable from outside. no swing rubbish..& a step in t/gate to get in a real 8ft tub..gas struts are a waste. too much bling stuff..like linex. waste of money. esky,swag,job done..too many restrictions in this country to build a 4x4,so people concentrate on'' what shit can i fit to it. ''. then,its over gvm,& you stay home..

Hey Ronny. Been running the Uneek 4x4 rock sliders on my 2013 Ranger for about 5 years. They have saved my doors and sills numerous times in the Vic High Country. Also running the Uneek crawler bar and also been fantastic. Lucky me though I was able to get them a lot cheaper as they really weren't known back when I bought mine. Thanks mate.

LIne-X standing up well for me, I transported 1000kg of wet lime plaster 250 miles, in mine and was a little alarmed to see white caustic stains in the back, but hosed it out and it looks like new again. It's stood up to a few pallets and fork lift drivers as well! Giving the winter tyres a shake down here in the UK at the moment as we've got snow and ice.

@brucerowland9989 2 жыл бұрын

Coming along very nicely and very useful items added. Have always liked the idea of using Line-x in the tub, still yet to get mine done eventually but so much better then the factory plastic tubs. Love the scary thought of sanding and chopping something new or clean 😂

@scoobalimalima 3 жыл бұрын

Another good thing about spray on liner is that as opposed to a drop in liner, if there is dents/scratches already in the tub it will not sweat in-between the tub and liner and accelerate rusting. I also have the Uneek sliders and they're a great bit of kit, nice looking but very solid. The tailgate storage is definitely the best mod by far, I was looking at buying the same kit but the price was a bit steep, I went the DIY option and used a sheet of stainless with piano wire hinge, cost me a day and only $100, all my recovery gear and tie down/ratchet straps etc live in there. Looking forward to the next vid Ronny good work.

Line X tub is my favorite mod. Did it to my NP300 and i even had the outside of the tailgate done... black Nav with a full Line X Tailgate. Line X Welshpool did an amazing job and it looks great plus protection. Love the stuff... would be the first thing i get done after driving a new ute out of the showroom for sure. 👍

@boringusername792 3 жыл бұрын

Absolutely loving project Luxy! Favourite mod: rock sliders, they look great and I was surprised how light they are. Almost favourite: the partial chrome delete! Why not also do the handles? Least favourite mod: the swing out boxes. They look like you need to unpack gear to swing out and seem heavy. I'd probably have looked for small plastic boxes or canvas bags that fit the general area or built a permanent box for compressor or such like.

Tub liner and the rock sliders are a fantastic choice. I looked very closely into the tailgate storage as well as the wheel arch storage and concluded that they aren't worth the hassle. I think a lot of people go for a big alloy canopy, but I reckon you can get a style side functional if you set it up right.

Don’t worry about cutting the tailgate, the ‘in’ thing atm is cutting off the back of brand new 200s with 10km on the clock. Tailgate mod is great and Aussie which is great💪 linex tub is great. Personally I think the swing aways won’t last and are more of a hindrance. Would be nice to see the nice lines on the front end carried on with the Bullbar - always hard to do. Nice rig👌

This video series is really helpfull and educational. I am considering buying either the new Hilux or L200 (sold as Triton in Aus). I was aiming for L200 as it has central diff and full time 4x4 - we are in snowy regions and this would be needed. However as Mitsu is leaving EU market, I will opt for the new 2.8L Hilux... May I ask 2 questions - is it possible to fit 16 inch wheels on the new models or are the brake discs too large? Also, in the previous videos you metioned great clearance (I think over 27 cm). Is this the clearance under the pumpkin on the rear axle? In that case it would be really good. What is the clearance under the IFS diff and below the doors, please (stock)?

Hi Ronny. I’ve started building my glamping rig on my 2020 Nissan Patrol Super Safari (aka GU in Australia). So far I have installed, FrontRunner Slimline II roof rack, Recovery holder, shovel holder, Nilight 52” curved light bar and 4 pod lights and Ikamper Skycamp 2.0. Approximate additional weight on the roof (currently) 120kg. My vehicle already started to drive bouncy on the curves. In addition to current mods I’m thinking to install 270 awning which will add minimum 20kg on one side. My question is about suspension/spring upgrade. What would you recommend to upgrade for suspensions? Only stiffer springs or full lift kit? Thanks in advance.

Good choice on the bedliner in my opinion. The fact that it's permanent is actually a big pro, not a con, if you're not planning to keep the truck forever. At least that's true where I live. The reason is that a permanent bed liner like that will actually increase the value of the truck if you go to sell it, compared to an otherwise identical vehicle without it.

Those swing out boxes are going to be painful when the tub is full of other stuff. I imagine you'll just not swing them out and open them where they sit.
