Simon. Jackson appreciate that buddy!
Thanks bud
Credit where credits dew. Quality content as always
Simon. Jackson legend thank you that means a lot
New to your channel love the video and how detailed the content is. Looking at buying a used ranger in the next few months and this is the first UK ranger video that i actually like. With all the gears added to the truck, i cant wait. I do share the same wilderness expeditions and the coastal surfing and camping lifestyle, so this to me is a big find. After going through your website, it made me appreciate you and your work even more. From a serving member to a veteran, well done mate from a Fijian Brother.
Nice one brother! Glad you’re enjoying the good content! More good stuff to come and I hope you get your truck real soon and get outdoors as soon as possible!
That was one wicked review!
Appreciate the feedback buddy
Only one word for it, SICK 👍
It certainly is a beast
Nice..very very nice..its turned out very well indeed
Yeah it’s been an epic build
Love it!!
It’s a beast
awesome
Thank you but well done to you for the great build
That's a nice build, do you keep a spare wheel? Just wondering if a 35 would still fit in the regular place under the bed. I'm putting a RC kit on my Ranger and I'm gonna run 35 Maxxis but I haven't been able to find a bed mounted wheel rack for it.
With the new rangers here in the U.K. they are fitted with Adblue tanks that limit the amount of space available for a larger than stock spare wheel. With most good tire brands being very dependable it’s very seldom you may experience a puncture, so a tire repair kit could suffice. Ultimately depends on what terrain you’ll be facing on a expedition which could warrant a rear bumper mounted tire carrier.
Do not watch this video... it will just make you want this truck/ute/bakkie 😉
Props to Tom for the work he put in on this build... just needs an RSI Smart Canopy 🤣
Wandering South African 😂😂😂
Cheers bro
โครตเท่ห์ ผมก็ใช้Ford wildtrak2.0 10atใช้งวดหมดเดี๋ยวจะแต่งเข้าป่าCamping แบบนี้❤️Fc from 🇹🇭 thailand
Thank you
Very nice setup. Where could you get that front bumper from? 🤙
It’s part of a wide body kit but I haven’t seen very many of them so not sure if they are still being made
Great video guys. Are those surfboard mounts also by Frontrunner?
Thank you buddy and yes they are
@@MachinaDesigns Just picked my truck up from Trevor last month. Build almost finished. A few teething issues, but let me know if you fancy featuring it not the channel...
@@floorsleep27 what truck have you got?
Awsome truck. I am seriously wanting to purchase a wildtrak but the horror stories about reliability are kinda swaying me towards the d'max.... Which is a shame as I love the ranger. Have you had any issues especially with off road use. Also, are bull bars legal here in the UK and do they add a ton on your insurance premium. Cheers
Hi Samuel thank you for getting in touch. I’ve not had any issues with my truck both on and off-road. I do service her every 10000 miles and monitor my oil catch cans oil levels regularly. To be honest you only hear the horror stories before the good ones. The Dmax is a great choice and a very under rated 4x4. Bull bars per say are a little bit of a grey area especially if you’re talking about the hooped bars. From what I know they are sold as a off road use only here in the UK, hence my choice for a steel winch bumper with no hoops. As for insurance there are great companies out there such as A plan or Brentacre to name a few that will insure all you’re mods at a very reasonable price as long as they are not performance enhancing mods. Hope that helps you
Mate, between this and the Toyota hilux they are the two top selling VEHICLES in Australia. Not best selling 4x4 or ute etc but vehicle. Theres no reliability issues with them here. No more probs than any other new vehicle. The 3.2 is tried and tested. As for bull bars, I'd only get a full hooped bar if animals on the road are an issue. Not even here in the road kill nation does everyone go the full bull bar. If you need a winch then all you need is a mounting platform.
Quick question dude is the cutting due more so cas of the offset rather than the 35 inch tyres
It’s a bit of both really but mainly to offset yes
Do we know if Tom reinforced his tub based slimline II rack - I have a Wildtrak PX III and was told by Ford that the max weight allowance for a tub rack was 25kg.
I don’t think so and that’s slightly puzzling why Ford would worry about 25kg as the payload of the tub is over a ton. Front runner racks are some of the toughest out there too and they weigh in the region of 23kg by themselves. I’m not very confident you’ve been given the right information by ford here. I’ll look into further and see what the crack is.
@@MachinaDesigns I believe the weight issue lies with the automatic roller cover?
Oh I see. Tom has a manual hard cover on his truck.
Nice truck lovely setup shame you'd get an instant ban on the roads 3 points a corner ( wheels protruding past the wheel arch ) = 12 points instant ban 👍
Interesting as I’ve not heard anyone being pulled up on this? They only seem to pull you on things if you give them a reason to ie being an idiot etc
Hey Team I really love that front bumper can you please give me the brand and specs cheers
Raptor style Bumper is available at Gforce4x4
@@MachinaDesigns awesome cheers
Hello what year is this truck? not sure if that's a private plate?
2016 model 3.2 Auto Wildtrak
Hi Can you put the link for the rooftop tent please
Yeah sure
whats the brand of the tent! want one
Ikamper
Salisbury plain if I ever saw it lol
Quite possibly
Hi could you put the tent on the rack on the bed?
Renegade Adventure's yes you could we answer that question in the video on the owners choice of location. But ultimately it can be placed on the bed rack if required
Thank you
I did watch the vid and understand the reasons for putting the tent on the roof, thank you
Renegade Adventure's thank you for taking the time and supporting the channel. If you have any more questions please do get in touch
I like the build but I think his axel/arms would hit before that skid plate.
That’s the unfortunate reality of an IFS vehicle
anyone have links for the roof rack and roof top tent shown in the video? pls
The roof rack is available from front runner it’s the slimline 2 and just do a search for the Ikamper there are a few dealers out there that can offer you the RTT
Where do people get the money for this stuff? I love the hell out of it, but my kids gotta eat.
😂😂😂 some dudes are rolling in the doh! I feel your pain though
Kids love beans on toast. 🍞 😂
😂😂
what brand is the front bumper?
It’s an aftermarket one of some kind but don’t know the make or model I’m afraid
What brand in the front bar?
It’s part of a wide body kit that was installed by the truck builder. No idea on the brand
Where is the grill from?
Gforce4x4
I love it, I want it, I really do... But I just KNOW, I can't afford it..
It’s an awesome machine
Thanks for showing me the whole bunch of new reasons why I should stick with my old 2003 Ranger . Absolutely no reason for a truck to be that complicated .
😂😂😂 each to their own
no cb radio... sounds like this truck never leaves the suburbs.... nice looking rig but
He’s got one now but I guess his truck his rules
