shocks where $3500 and thats from King shocks Australia, you can get them cheaper from the states. But getting them through the Aussie dealer I knew they would fit.

This is what it should look like when its all done

............Giddy Up!!

giddy up! will certainly be an epic truck!
for those who don't know... King Offroad Shocks now has an Australian agent/distributor/service department based in Brisbane. The guys running it have over 25 years offroad racing experience and are very helpful. They work very closely with King in the US and have done multiple trips to their US headquarters for tech training etc

Hi Guys,

here is another picture of a complete AT35 kit on a Nav!!!! enjoy

Hi Guys,

Where I am at with the Nav, Hopefully this week I will be dropping the flares off to get painted and waiting for my 315x 70x 17 BFG tyres to turn up from the US, But the Biggest problem I have is getting a custom Bull bar made.

I got 2 options:-
1:- Buy a steel bullbar for a Nav and hack it up to make it 12 inchs wider
2:- Find a standard Plastic bumper for now and put the Arctic Trucks Nudge bar on, but those bumpers are extremely hard to find and cost shit loads for something that will only be temporary.

cheers Matt

that will look shit hot when its all fitted.

are you going to do anything to the driveline to handle the big tyres?

maybe you could get a xrox tube bullbar, both sides of the bar are bolt on so you could take them off and have someone fabricate wider ones to suit and bolt them on.

that's how all D40's should leave the showroom! Looks awesome and somehow it's huge but doesn't look out of place! Love it!

that is going to look great

Nice. looks the goods...

That red one looks nice but I have no idea why someone would spend I am guessing close to $10K on all that stuff to fit 35" All Terrains??? Really if you are going to go to the trouble and expense why not fit muddies????????

this is going to be mad! subbed

I do a shit load of Highway driving around 50,000 per year. So Untill I get everything the way I want it, that includes Stronger diffs, Airlockers, all the shit and the setup to go to the cape and out west to Alice for Finke. By the time I get all those mods done I will have worked out what muddies im gona run with. But the BFG's will be a good start and see how the car handles now with the wider foot print.
