Join us as we take Australia's most popular dual-cab ute and turn it into the ultimate 4x4 camping machine! We ditched the stock HiLux tub and installed a T.C Tray and Canopy, providing ample storage space for all the camping gear. The upgraded suspension system and wheels give this beast the capability to tackle any terrain, while the bull bar offers the ultimate protection. 👌
Take a look behind the scenes of our workshop without our installs team, as we show you how we built this off-road beast from the ground up. 💪
Build Breakdown:
Black 1650 tray, no headboard
Black 1650 canopy with doc section + dog section cover
ARB Summit bullbar
ARB Solis spotties
Dirty Life wheels with Renegade Radar tyres
Fulcrum suspension lift kit

[Music] [Music] all right g'day guys my name is Dave I'm the sales manager
here at TC boxes and I'm here today to talk to you a little bit about the Hilux tell you
a little bit about what we're going to do about the setup on the back I am looking to
get a tray on there as soon as possible not really a fan of the tub at all and that's
not Toyota's fault I know it's a lot it's very popular I just find them extremely impractical
and I [ __ ] hate them I hate tubs there we go I said it I feel a bit
better now like
a weight has been lifted and certainly we'll be lifting that weight off the back of the
car very very soon and getting rid of it we are putting a tray on there 1650 tray with
a 1650 dog section canopy all in black going to get some 750 under trays underneath there
get a lot of work done with the bull bar we've got some spotlights going on there we're going
to have a winch put in there as well all through ARB and we're going to have our tires and
wheels done by tireite in pakenham
reason I'm going for the 1650 dog section canopy
obviously that dog section is going to be there for the little doggy to come on camping
trips and fishing trips with me so this is really a camper setup I guess for myself we'll
be able to Deck the inside of the canopy out with various different accessories Dave two
boxes highlights the tub let's get a tray in a box thank you see you next week morning
trendsetters uh down here at ARB this morning we are getting our winch and some lights fitted
to
the SR Toyota a couple of things I should point out we've got the Summit Bar already
on there by ARB fantastic bar love the way that looks the winch is going to sit perfectly
in there you can probably imagine it's a worn winch we've chosen ARB to fit these products
because they've all been tested on these bars on these products they're set to the right
height we're looking forward to it so let's get around the back get some gear fitted off
[Music] so here we are inside the workshop TC boxes I a
m removing the Hilux tub today
which I'm very very very happy about I think you all know how I feel about tubs by now
if not it's not a muffin [Music] on goes the 1650 tray it's a flat
alley tray no headboard I'm opting for I'm gonna have a 1650 box put on top of that that's
going to sit flush all the way around [Music] morning guys welcome to fulcrum in pakenham
we're here this morning to get the suspension done for our Hilux obviously the TC box aim
is to make gear as strong and as light as po
ssible with weight being such a big issue
these days we want to make sure we get it right so we've brought it down here to The
Experts [Music] there's two main reasons why we weigh a vehicle
prior to doing any sort of suspension work one is to ensure we're extending the vehicle
up with the correct spring rate to the load that it will be carrying on the vehicle two
is to make sure you're under your gvm or close to to give you an accurate indication of how
much weight you have to play with prior t
o going on a trip [Music] foreign [Music] pakenham these guys are the absolute experts
when it comes to wheels for your 4x4 you try and do this yourself you'll end up going wrong
is the offset right it's a Minefield trying to get the right sort of tires especially
when you think you've got the right set and they may be sticking out too far the last
thing you want to do is get pinned so we come down here they give you a list of rims and
tires of the right size to choose from can't wait to see wha
t they're going to look like
[Music] we fight through fire and pain and always get up again there's nothing we can't
do and we're about to pull we get stronger as we go [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] let's go [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] foreign [Music]
