G'day there drover, white single cabs are phat! Haha ;) Yeah can't wait till I can get some steps on, just not quite sure where to obtain them. Don't really want them joining my bull bar either haha. My seating is the split bench, just fits three, (skinny people haha). And I would have no idea how comfy the passenger seat is coz I'm always driving! Haha the way it should be.

But after reading through a few more forums and seeing some of the sick ideas on here, my most recent plan is as follows (In any order, depending on what I can source):
Rear locker,
Customish bash plate,
Side steps,
Flares,
New wheels (possibly [probably not] new tyres),
Front locker.

Should keep me going for the next couple of weekends :P

Nice looking truck mate, Us single cabbys are a minority to these forums, But one day people will understand, Understand that if you rock up to a piss up with a single cab ute, you are not going to expected to be a TAXI were as dual cabs, well i just feel sorry for the driver.
Good work though, its a shame that mitsi doesnt put a tub on the 4x4 single cab MN tritons (correct me if im wrong) but the only way i was told it could be done is by getting one from a 4x2 and put it on a 4x4.

I don't believe that is correct. I got plenty of quotes that for some reason were cheaper to get a single cab with a tub than to buy a single cab with nothing.

Righto since my last post I have removed the 16" Speedy alloys and am selling them, for a set of 16" Dynamic steelies, the alloys just weren't giving the look I'm going for, nothing against the Speedies. My 3" Straight though Scotts Rodds exhaust has arrived and my chip and egt monitor will be on order next week. Can't wait!

Hey Goochie! I like what you have done with the Xrox and the wheels. But tell me, do you need flares to compensate for the largness (if that's a word), of the 33s? Have you noticed a difference with your speed or odometre? Just really curious. You seem to have a beast there already? Is it chipped?

Schnap

Righto! There hasn't been update in a while! Been saving a bit of money and blew a bit of dosch on the beast!

Here's what she looks like at the moment!

Since the last post a 3' Scotts rods exhaust has been installed,bit of an issue with the bolts that mounts the dump pipe to the turbo they had kind of melted and seized! Cost a fair bit to have the turbo removed, drill and re thread the holes and install the new pipe! Also got the mechanic to put in the bung for the pyro for my chip!

The exhaust, beast sound!

And the most recent mod is the ChipIt module with EGT monitor, have hooked up the map sensor too and its running quiet well! Might down grade the tune one hit as there seems to be a tiny delay in acceleration at a couple of small points, but the overall increase in power and torque are amazing!

So that's it until the next mod! Haha

Yeah thanks mate! Haven't been pulled up for the tyres yet, might just put flares on when they catch me :p

And the exhaust doesn't sound ricer at all! Makes it sound deeper and more rumbly haha, sounds sick. Haven't seen your tri around! Seems to be plenty of bone stock ones though like you said!

Hey mate sorry haven't been on here in a while. Too be honest the Iron man lift is horrible. Looking at upgrading very soon, you can feel every bump and get a lot of steering wheel feedback. I guess you get what you pay for haha.

Quick update sorry no picks yet, but Ultimate Suspension kit has been ordered, along with LED light bar, new 33's, and the beast goes in on monday to get rid of the tub and a new custom steel tray to be put on. Gonna look a lot different in about a months time. Cheers fellas!

Goochie.

***edit: and front flares should be here very soon....
