Stefanos Triton Mods!!!!

Hi all!!!
Here,I'll show you a few modifications, I've done to my Triton.

This was the the first place of my winch,but I don't like it,too much down and dangerous for my car.

So,I desided to install it to another place.I made a new plate with 6mm and 8mm steel

Thanks mates!!!!I think that you like my job!!

That's about as far as I got with a stabilizer and then started to loose interest due to the prob with our
ute :roll: but figured hooking it onto the steering rack wasn't going to be easy at all . :?

stefanos, I contacted Lin Lee and will be getting a set of the shocks soon.

Like to find out from you if you have the dimension of the bash plate set. My Thai-made bash plate is giving up and I'm looking to get a custom set done and your new set looks lovely!!

Can I also check with you, on the pic showing your rear shocks, what are the wiring for the connectors hanging above the rear diff for? My triton have 3 connectors there that is not hooked up and like to know what to do with it..
