    Gilly's TB42 Maverick

    I just purchased this a few months ago.



    Basic rundown when I got it: 93 Maverick done just 157k's, TB42 with Extractors and nice exhaust, 2 inch pedders lift, Steel bar with warn winch. It's had a recent respray and is really straight and tidy throughout.

    Since I got it I've done:
    Mongoose Immobilizer
    Full fluid change with Penrite oils
    Extended Rotor Button, new plugs coil and leads - Made a HUGE improvement
    15x8 Dynamic Rims with Hankook DynaPro M/T's (which I love so far - great tyre!)
    Bought a 147L long ranger tank for a bargain - yet to be fitted
    Waeco cooler replaced the centre console
    CD Player and new speakers up the back
    New Spotties

    To do:
    Petronix Ignitor II and Coil - sounds like a winner so this is next on the list
    Rock Sliders
    Tint Windows
    Rust Proof
    Drawers
    HID's
    On board compressor

    It's main duties are towing this horse float that I recently made for my other half, and some basic off road work - I'm still learning! New to this getting dirty stuff! Hope to meet up with a few of you and learn a thing or two though..



    Much further down the track will be a V8 conversion for sure. Just need the time and the room to do it!

    Thanks guys! Yes the float is a home made job! Very happy with it, and a lot stronger/safer than a cheap new one.

    Well finally got it on the beach and up to Double Island Point, then Freshwater track to Rainbow Beach on Sunday. Went awesome in the sand! Loving it! (apart from the fuel consumption haha.)

    Good pick up with low Ks on it like that.
    make sure you join a club and take your other half
    to learn how to 4x4 safely as well.
    04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there

    Very nice looking truck there mate....don't worry bout the petrol I have a TB42E they thirsty buggers alright, but at the end of the day you get to drive it and that makes up for the petrol disappearing ....just a couple questions for you...what make extractors have you on the truck ? I want to go down that track also with a bigger exhaust. Also really like the awning I have not seen anything like that here in NZ could you or any one tell me the name,brand type etc would really appreciate it

    Cheers
