My eerste paar Mods !

Post by Warrior »

Nadat Warren hier op die forum sy trokkie gepimp het , kon ek nie meer uitstel nie en moes self iets doen.
Ek het hom geskakel en alle nodige info by hom gekry - Thanks Warren !! :thumbup:
Hy het my verwys na Jaco van Cape Offroad in Brackenfell- net hier om die draai van my.
Jaco het sommer vinnig geweet wat ek soek en binne n week is my bakkie ook nou n trokkie !
Dalk nie almal se smaak nie maar ek wou nog altyd n bakkie se wiele, sidesteps en rollbar dieselfde donker kleur he.
Ek het besluit op gunmetal kleur en Jaco het al reeds n voorbeeld gereed gehad.
Daars nog n laaang lys van goed wat ek wil doen maar tyd ($) sal leer !

Die volgende mods is toe gedoen ( Alles gedoen deur Jaco van CAPE Offroad)

Neus gelig met lift kit
Kappie gestoor en seiltjie opgesit
4 X 15duim rims gunmetal gesprei
4 x Maxxis Bighorn 764 MT
Sidesteps en rollbar gesprei - (gaan nog rocksliders by Cape Offroad laat opsit - klaar my "design" met Jaco uitgeklaar !)
Beskermings plaat voor onder laat opsit.
Lelike "squeek" geluid voor in die suspensie uitgesort ! :D:

Ek wil ook graag vir Eloise van Mufasa Bande BAIE dankie se vir al haar geduld met my klomp emails. Ek kon net nie finaal besluit oor watter band nie - Ek het gesoek na die band met die mees agressiewe patroon maar minste padgeraas. Op die end het ek op Maxxis Bighorns besluit - hulle was ook goed geprys.
Probeer gerus vir Eloise hulle by Mufasa - Beste diens ooit met goeie pryse ! :clap:

Dankie vir al die positiewe woorde !

Antonie - ek is glad nie n fan van chrome nie (nie eers op n Harley nie) , ek dink n paar donker wiele (charcoal of gunmetal) sal baie goed lyk ! Jy kan altyd die wiele "wrap" in n ander kleur en as jy nie daarvan hou nie dan trek jy dit net af. Dink dit kos R2000 - egter nie seker hoe dit sal hou teen 4x4 gebruik nie.

Tertius - dankie vir die uitnodiging :thumbup: , ek sal baie graag wil gaan, sal jou pm.

Bennie - die 15duim staal rims het Jaco van Cape Offroad in Brackenfell vir my gekry (weet nie waar nie), maar ek dink dis wit rims as jy hulle nuut koop. sy mail adres : jaco@capeoffroad.co.za
Die bande is Maxxis Bighorn 764 (31/10.5R15) - het baie nagevors oor bande maar daar was nie n duidelike keuse vir my nie en het toe maar vir Maxxis gegaan, Het ook ernstig Kumho KL71 oorweeg - hulle lyk vir my mooier maar was bekommerd oor nog meer pad geraas.

Neil - still a lot to do (as you all clearly know :taunt: ) Front and rear bumpers will have to be done for more extreme riding, I have a particular front bumper in mind , just waiting for the money ! I am busy doing research on the merits of chipping the V6 and fitting a free flow for that lovely sound. I suppose with the slightly bigger wheels, the Lux will loose some torque so I hope to gain power again to make up for that. Darker tints to come. I am a 40 year old with the music taste of a 20 year old, so my sound system will have to be upgraded :celebrate: - initially just with a amp and sub. The last item is a suspension kit, but that will only be done if the current setup is not up to the challenges we are going to throw at it. (I first need learn some skills in the mean time ! :oops: )

Groete :cool:
