The only thing between me and finishing the lift install is this rounded off flare nut. Hoping to finish next week.

Finally got round to installing the GMF4x4 Under body trailing arm sensor guard and Under body module guard on the Raptor today. I had a bit of trouble installing the trailing arm sensors due to access as it’s a bit tricky keeping the nut in place while trying to fit the bolt in from the other side. The instructions were pretty decent overall and the components are solid. Very happy to have some protection over the factory sensor and have way more confidence that everything will be safe when off-road.

Howdy So finally got some motivation and fit up my "new" bullbar, obviously has some fitment problems thanks to the damage but should be able to straighten it out and get it looking good, also got my "new" awning fit up which also needs some work but for $30 I can't really complain. I think I finally have enough of the correct parts sitting around that I can start to finally get everything set up and get some of this crap out of my storage unit, hopefully going to be posting more updates on here and on my Instagram documenting my progress and also hopefully documenting some camping or offroading trips once I get the time and money to do some. Cheers for reading

cab has been lifted off to cut off all unneeded material. for example old Cross member mounts part of the old monologue chassis to free up room. also cut the old sub box that was in the way getting ready to plate up the back and also free up room for future room inside

Howdy, so this arvo I got bored and have gone through and added all the links to most of the parts I have for the Hilux, so if anyone's interested in any of the stuff that I have, the links are there. A few things were bought second hand or don't have a website to buy from so I've just put the generic information page. Cheers👌
