Back from the border track, awesome time away, thanks to bill for coming and making the trip more fun! Also thanks to the mate with his v8 patrol that needed snatchys over hills, also drowned his car at the 4x4 park and is now very broken! Stupid Nissan crap.

Tuff Troop,

do you have any more pics with a bit more detail of the tent open and how you have your set up at the back?

man that looks awesome. Did you have to reinforce the canopy to put the tent on? What type of canopy and rack system is it. I am impressed!!! Nice color too.
Keen to get amongst it!!

The best colour ;)

It's just a genuine mitsubishi canopy with the stock bars. And the bars for the roof top going across. I've had it off road many times and lots of full on trips. No issues. So yeah seems good!

Update. Bought a arb canopy today off a crashed ml glxr , will be stripping it down and putting new windows and seals in it , also painting it cyber blue , and adding some led strip lights! Also has the internal roll cage and trades rack on the top which should also fit my roof top tent too hopefully! Will do pics as I go!

Canopy is almost back together and ready to put on the tub! Can't wait, basically everything is brand new and what isn't New has been sprayed and made Like new.

Also ordered dyneema rope And offset hawse , do I have to remove the winch to fit the rope? I hope not haha

I wouldn't think you'd need to have the bar off. Pull the old stuff off, connect the new stuff to the drum or whatever it is called and wind it in. Of course I've never actually done it :roll:

Yeah that's what I'm thinking. Hope I don't have to take it all off . That would defiantly see the winch rope not getting installed haha

What sort of winch you got? When I changed my cable for rope I did it without taking off my bar etc. if you have access to the underside of your winch you should be fine. I also was able to turn the brake/clutch without removing the bar too!! I have the avenger kingcone, winch. Hopefully you will be right!
