Triton From Panama City, Panama

Hey guys, Merry xmas to you all.
It's been a while since I have posted on the forum. I've been very busy with some projects, and due to the owners that wanted to finish before the year ends, well, I have been a bit out of time for almost anything.
Luckily, I still have found some time to work on my triton, so here are some pics. Please click on some pics, I didn't resized them, I honestly forgot to do that...

When I first started posting on this forum, my Triton looked like this:

I started looking around some photos and some of the build-ups here, so my Triton started looking like this:

Later I fitted the OME suspension, and a after your kind help, (specially Cowbow Dave, thnx for all the info you provided) I decided to go for an ARB bullbar, so it went to look like this:

So I've found that this surely is an addiction, so I just couldn't stop there, so then it looked liked this:

Well, my Triton now has a racechip tunning chip for the moment, which is performing quite good, and the latest mod fitted is and ARB front locker:

Front locker is performing outstanding! It's a whole new rig. First time i used it, was in this trip,

same trip which I posted the video:

Last time I went to this trip, I had some trouble getting up some muddy hills. This time I just engaged the locker and when I was up the hill was like that song was ringing on my head u know: "A WHOOOOOOLE NEW WOOOOOORLDDDDDD!!!" :D :lol: :lol: :lol:

I even had the chance to fancy stop at the middle of the uphill, and start climbing from there, and it will just keep pulling up.

Well, gotta be honest, My Triton was something I prayed to God, and I sure recall I prayed liked this: "I want it full equipped, sunroof, auto tranny, LSD, leather seating, good engine. But I won't get picky, so You can send it the color you want." So He sent it that color. CanĀ“t complain! :lol:

Awesome Tom, love seeing people getting amongst the hard stuff 8-) those climbs would be challenging for most vehicles, looks like the Triton is earning respect all over the world !
