The cute 'lil'toy
Hi all, Names Matty, from Brisbane AUST.. This was originally my wife's car which we bought from the original owner based out in Cloncurry, Outback Queensland. With only 140,000 km's on it, it was in absolute prime condition and just what we where after!!! When we purchased the car, it was stock as a rock, and I mean dead DEAD stock!!! A year and a bit went by, and since then purchased another car for her (as my main mode of transport is a motorcycle), and really we had no use for the little IO.... However, there was just something there telling me, why not hang onto it???? And now, here we are!!!! modified 'n' what not.... I've attached the brochure pic, this is how it looked when we bought it, car tyres, you name it, stock as rock!!! The other 2 however have what's been done..... So here's a quick run through it... - 2" KYB suspension lift, front and rear - 16" x 8" with Bridgestone A/T tyres (including 5th spare) - TJM alloy 'Safari Series' Bull-bar - GME 80 channel UHF, with GME black extension aerial (not pictured) - Twin Narva 7" HID Spotties - HID H4 headlights - LED lights everywhere from the outset and throughout - IO LWB rear diff and axle set up (locker) There's probably more, but I cant think off the top of my head!!! Just wanted to see what u guys think!! Cheers!
Brisbane IO!!
Mate which part of Brisbane are ya!? Northside??
Keen to hit up some tracks you should definetly follow us down to Bob's IO trip 31st August.
Glad to see some more close to home keen IO owners popping up around the place :)
Oh and nice truck! I can conform my LWB 02" IO has only LSD not proper lockers.. Although they have never let me down!
Syndicate
nice
Looks good, seems we share the same steelies. If your getting 2 inches from the kyb struts and king springs you most likely have a setup which will give you very little drop in the front. There is a fair amount of discussion about that in the forum.
What locker do you have in the rear axle? And why swap to a LWB axle? I was under the impression most SWB models had the same rear diffs are a LWB one, except my wanky 1.6L version.
