Molta's home for extra cash and spare time.

Postby Molta on Mon Dec 02, 2013 11:55 am

Hey gang,

Ive been about the page a while now but mainly ghosted. Only bought my Glxr recently (wouldn't beleive how hard it is to find a good manual deisel in Perth). Got this one for a steal and thought why not show the build, it will be long time forming (I have a lovely little one year old helper who grabs most of my time) but it will be happening.

Most of my early mods are cost effective and family orientated but anything to get me out and using it .
The original

Next I stuck in a uhf i had lying around (my first go at wiring in the Triton and all was succesful.

Then had plenty of down time at work so knocked up a small rack for the canopy

My little one has also found a love for the Triton so a floor for the back so she can play is slowly taking shape

with luggage racks

All will come together with some marine carpet a lock down setup for my fridge and probs her stroller and more of my precious spare time.Canopy mods and hopefully a finished tub to come :P

Hello friends, well i've got a bit done and a bit more than my pics show. A finished carpet in the tray and a new rhino rack platform for all the good stuff, havnt got pics of the rack installed though enjoy.

Proof you can fit a dual battery system in an ml pick up the auxiliary soon. Finished this and soon got in trouble as my little helper was asleep while I did it.

If you live in Perth you would have heard of Whitehills had to stop for a selfie. Click on the pic for full shot. Am stoked it's slowly coming along soon for some lift and new shoes maybe a new bash plate.

I made the little one all my mates game me heaps for being so small but I figured it will help me to not overload the canopy roof. I'm thinking perfect for the spare wheel if Need be.

Made that as well I'm a boily so spare time at work = simple mods am deciding wether to put some inserts in the gaps or not but at moment it's really light and positioning is really flexible.

Well I had to put the brakes on to some mods for a bit with work and the big and little handbrake taking up my time. I have managed to finally fit my dual battery, though yet to re wire most of the truck accordingly. Also carpeted the tailgate to match up with the rest of the tray.Click to view larger picture
And a night shot of the tray

Scored a near little set up for my ipad inside as well, not the best pic but very stable
Click to view larger picture
and last but not least have reinforced my old bash plates but these are a work in progress and havnt been re fitted yet

Will keep up the pics when I do my body lift and 285's I wanna roll on .
