Foxtrot 16 Rig

[Foxtrot16]

Been a bit of a lurker here but finally got around to getting some images of my 2011 D40.

I picked it up in 2011 and had the bull bar, canopy, snorkel and tow bar fitted at the same time. I then fitted a set of LF 170 spotties (I have since swapped the reflectors to 240).

Then last year I fitted a Long Ranger 70L auxiliary tank and the LED light bar.

This year I have fitted:

1. ARB Old Man Emu suspension
2. Outback Accessories rear drawers
3. ARB dual battery system
4. ARB rear view mirror / reversing camera
5. Brown Davis front bash plate
6. Oricom UHF 058 CB radio
7. Kenwood stereo
8. ARB awning

It is still a work in progress.

Thanks guys - yeah doing it up mainly for touring.

SWMBO & I are hoping to do the big lap in a few years (or earlier if we win lotto!!) so I am getting it ready for that.

Nice Karl, the sidesteps look good. Love the camera on the lightbar too.

Thanks - I am into my photography as well and have started playing around with GoPros to try and get decent videos when I am off road. I also have one on the hot shoe of my Canon 7D so I can video while taking still photos.

As soon as I learn how to use my videoing editing program I will put stuff up on YouTube etc.

Having the GoPro on the light bar works really well.

Welcome to the forum Karl, guys here are more helpful than drn.

I hope so - there are a lot of experts there but no-one seems to put up many photos of themselves out and about so I often wonder if most are armchair offroaders - which is one of the reasons I have started putting up images there to show I at least get out and about and do go offroad.
