blimey, thats some project! :shock:
Be nice to see it finished.
BTW dave, am I right in saying a STR is only in D22 and STX is only D40?

 

[dave]

The D22 over here comes out in DX single cab 4x4, 4x2. Dual cab DX, STR.

D40 comes out as STX and RX. I think all version's of the D40 come in STX and RX.

Your right.

The guy building this has some skill.

Hey Guys

I have to admit looking at the pictures and reading the replies to what he is planning.
It is pretty nuts. I can’t see it being that usable; I have been to the states and been lucky enough to play around with a few big toys. But the trucks/cars over there all lack something... Usability

For example, on one of the farms I managed the owners had a old Ford F250. I mean it was so big and all but I still felt that everything that truck could do my Nav could do too and probably better.

The problem with the truck is, if something (AND IT WILL) goes wrong....
It’s not like you can just buy a part from your nearest Auto Mart.

But saying all that, I would love to drive it /Own it :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

Well thanks Dave, I got bugger all done last night!! I read through the whole lot!

The guy is amazingly talented, some truly amazing work, but a littel over the top in places.

I cant wait to see the finished article!! Would love to SAS and put a big engine in my Nav but I think I would probably be better buying a Patroll and cutting it to suit my needs!

Yep old mate Dave is one clever bloke.

Check out the Toyota Coaster aswell, 6BT cummins in it now and F250 diffs under it.

NNM, sorry mate. But it gives you some ideas.

Sphinx uk, dont worry I thought the same thing when I seen it.

Bob, how much sleep did you get.
