this is my o8 d40 st-x. 6 speed manual. turbo diesel.
i bought it brand new (with the tub), safari snorkel, arb tow ball, nudge bar (freebie), tinted windows, e rust and ipf spotties and gme uhf from previos landcruiser i owned. etc
the list of works goes as is.

1st: ripped the tub of and fitted a duratray alloy tray from c&b mobile fitting
on the Gold Coast and took the option of the tradesman high polished
bar with welded in mesh. (for strength) tray is 1905 x1900.

2nd:after 7000km i sold the stock contitrac tyres to a fella at work for $600
and fitted a set of bf goodrich a/t's 265/75/16. the speedo's only 3 km
out now.

3rd: brown and davis bash plates fitted both sump and transfer
case. (arb gold coast)

4th:17000km on the clock and got the arb deluxe bar fitted (arb gold
coast) and the suspension upgrade with billstein shocks and king
springs heavy duty leaves and coils.(mermaid suspension)
i got 35mm lift out of the front and 65mm out of the back.

5th:the red arc smart solinoid dual battery set up was fitted by an auto
sparky.

further mods WILL include an exhaust system, performance chip/gas injection and a battery monitor and thats about all i ca think of at the moment.

i'll also be swapping from bfg a/t's to either bfg muddies or wrangler a/t's in the next 15000 km.

took these today was abit bored.

last 2 are for comparison. 100kg compared to 500kg give or take a few.

to say i'm impressed with the rear leaves is an understatement. (king springs)

Looks great mate.
The bar really sets it off hey. I really don't like the factory nudge bar. I think I like em better with nothing than a nudge bar! ha ha

Thanks for posting the pics looks like a nice truck.
