TD5 SII Bush Rangie Build Up (Dial Up Warning) Updated

[Maggot4x4]

Ok, a mate is building this and I thought I'd share some build up pics.

Base vehicle is a 2003 TD5 Auto Disco HSE, complete with ACE, SLS etc etc, all being retained.

DII chassis and running gear is being used with Maxi Axels, ARB Lockers F&R, 35" Claws.

Here are the pics.

What is the cost of having a toy like that going to set you back - if you don't mind me asking?

If you had to buy it rather than build it, 50-80k.

[Ace]

I was actually thinking of a colour like that, but thats as far is the comparison with mine goes.

I dont think the cost would be to high, you can pick the write offs for next to nothing at auction and then there is the time and the body etc, $20000 maybe a bit more would get it built if you picked the wreck up cheap and did all the work yourself. Looks bloody good. Matt

[Maggot4x4]

Yeah, he is stocked with it so far. 3 1/2 week build so far.

[CraigE]

OMFG what a weapon. Just dont let it drink the XXXX or it will never be the same.
Right I am off to the shed to cut the Fender up.
:twisted: :twisted:

[LRHybrid100]

wasnt too bad when there was a glut of cheap Rangies with rusted bodies in the UK

Hey maggot4x4,

Do you happen to know where your mate got those alloys from, as I'm looking for one for my Disco. I have 3, but need the 4th.

Any info you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

He got the direct from Davis Performance Landys in AnanGrove Sydney.

[Caveman]

Cool, thanks for that.

I don't suppose you know what they are called, or have a part no. so I can ring up and get a price for one.

Cheers mate

[Maggot4x4]

not off the top of my head. will see what I can find out

[Caveman]

Thanks, that would be a great help.

They were bought as blanks and the PCD was machined custom to fit. Davis Performance Landy's can provide you with the details, should cost you about $300 per rim

[FenianEel]

One of the better bastardisations I've seen, but why on earth would you keep carpeted floors and cloth seats in the thing?

[Outlaw]

Very nice, but you do have to do something about those flares... really destracting from all the good work on the rest of it.

Thanks Mate......
It appears the ones I already have are an italian made rim, not quite the same as the ones your mate used...which are made perfomance.

Looks like I might have to buy a complete new set of rim, as I don't think I'll find another for my set. :cry:

Took it for a drive today https://www.aulro.com/afvb/

Where's the "God Help Me" handle on the A piller to help the smooth access for driver and passenger?
