Nice triton mate!! Just wondering what suspension you have now and also did the Eco seats bolt straight in? I have access to a set from a 2000 model evo do you think they would still fit without hassell? Thanks mate

Hey mate thanks!

Fair bit of mucking around and fabricating needed to fit the Evo seats. Took 6 or so hours to get them in there!

Efs shocks with king flexi springs at the moment. Flexs unreal! But is a little floaty around corners etc. so will be Interestsd to see what the ultimate suspension is like as soon as it arrives!

Hey mate not getting any reflection at all as it does sit a fair bit back from the front of the roof! My old Troopy was shocking with 4x rally 4000s on the front of the roof cage! , just the antenna on triton is very bright will invest in a grey one this week! ,

Tonight was spent putting 42meters of dyneema rope and a offset hawse on the front. Amazing how heavy the wire is compared to the rope! , also Removved the wings off the bullbar and Removved the washer bottle. Just need to work out a washer bottle that will fit in engine bay now!

Sounds great. I just fitted an alloy tray on my MN. I'm thinking a 30" light bar would be the go across the front.

Where did you get yours from?

If you wanted to save some coin just put some heat shrink over the aerial rather than buying a new one just to limit the reflection.

Click to view larger pictureYeahh triton is in my bad books, in the middle of some dune driving in robe a rear spring snapped sending the back wheel into the tub and upward as well. Did a dodgy fix and drove 200k home crab walking down the roads at 80kph.

Spoke to Brendan from ultimate saturday and yesterday and paid for springs today and he has also sent them today. Unreal service right there. So I may well get it back together for this weekends drift day!

Shes now done 202000ks and still going strong!
