Step 4 complete - Custom Rock Sliders installed

If we can have a forum for the Amarok, I see no reason why we cant have one for Daihatsu, which is part owned by Toyota anyway.

Step 4 complete - Custom Rock Sliders installed

Post by Ali3n »

Okay, after an 8 month battle for time :aggresive: I finally got my rock sliders done. :yahoo: Built out of 70 x 50 x 4 mm rectangular tubing for the impact point and 40 x 2.5 mm round bar as a step. This I think was the hardest (all by myself with a helping hand every now and then from my wife, thanks :thumbup:) to build but I feel it was worth the blood, sweat, WORDS :twisted: and wait. I have gone with rubberizing for the finish to match the bulbar but once I have started building and completed my off-road bumper (front and rear) which will be powder coated, I will take them off and sand blast them and also have them powder coated. Any comments good or bad are more than welcome. :thumbup:

Daai Rocksliders is verseker iets unieks as dit kom by 'n Terios, en dit lyk baie besonders.

Ek dink jy moet bietjie vir Leisure Wheels of vir Ali by WegRy laat weet van jou monstertjie, daai Terri-aLien is verseker 'n artikel werd.

Wel dit gaan beslis die moelikste en langste upgrade wee swat ek gaan doen. Ek het al met so paar mense gesels net om advies ens te kry. Daar is so paar opsies wat ek het soos wat dit vir my verduidelik was maar as eenige iemand weet van iemand wat ek moontlik kan kontak wat my nog meer advies kan gee sal ek bly wees.

Opsie 1 is om die oorspronklike 1500 enjin en ratkas uit te haal en te vervang met n 1.9 TDI Audi enjin (klein enjin) en n ratkas van die ou Daihatsu Rocky of Jimny. (baie beperkte spasie). Blykbaar in die omgewing van so R30 000

Opsie 2 is om net die ratkas te vervang. In die omgewing van so R10 000 en dan net die oorspronklike 1500 te chip en die Terios off-road se branches en freeflow op te sit wat so R2000 is.

Opsie 3 maar nog te min al uit gevind is om net n transfer case in te sit en n kort stok in te sit soos wat van die mense doen as hulle n extra lae rat in sit saam met hule oorspronklike lae rat.

Ek sal meer navorsing moet doen om te kan sien wat moontlik is en wat sal kan werk en wat in die ou einde goedkoper sal uitwerk. Only time will tell.

Dankie vir al die kompliment mense. Dit lat my voel dis ales die moeite werd om aan te gaan met my projek. Dit vat wel baie baie lank maar ek is baie trots op dit en die feit dat ek amper al die werk aleen doen maak my net meer trots. Julle is almal great!!!

Ek het nog nooit aan so iets gedink nie maar baie dankie. Dit is vir my awesome om te dink daar is mense wat dink dit is n artiekel werd. As ek so iets wou doen weet ek nie hoe om te begin nie of selfs wie en hoe om hule te kontak nie. Eks maar net n ou "Pencil Pusher". :mrgreen:

And thanks to Mark i got my snorkel and hopefully I will be able to install it over the weekend. Thanks Mark!!! I think thats his name. :think: :laugh2: :laugh2:

Ek het al gesoek op die internet en het al gebel met baie mense gesels maar niemand weet van iemand wat so mod al probeer doen het met so voertuig nie. Inteendeel al wat ek hoor is dat ek die eerste is wat hule van weet wat so baie mods op n Terios wil doen. Kyk, as dit nie gedoen kan word nie is dit ook fine maar dis goed om te weet.
