What did you do with your Grenadier today?

What mounting brackets did you use? They look a bit like the brackets I saw at XHQ. Cameron and I used the STEDI Hex brackets,

So far AU owners have managed to fit a single 20 inch Lightforce Viper (me), a 20 inch double row 20 inch Viper (@CBN) and now the Narava EX2 double row 20 inch (you) - on the top Roo Bar hoop. All of them just fitted (bracket choice is critical).

My single row Viper provides so much light, the double even more light. It also provides a lot of light in close and out about 20-30 metres off the road.

We have choices and choices are good.

XHQ like Narva lightbars

Narva make dedicated EX2 bullbar hoop brackets in 2” (fits the grenny), 2.5” and 3” sizes.
 
I was at the field day today with my Grenadier. Technology from old and new times was exhibited and demonstrated. There were a few questions about the Grenadier. When I said that the Grenadier is a robust vehicle also for use in agriculture, I was told that it was far too expensive. No farmer can afford that. And yes, I can imagine that. Many drive their Lada, Jimny, Ranger. I tend to stand out when I drive the Grenadier across the fields.

I will always see more pick ups on the fields - L200, Hilux, Izuzu - cant be beaten for work to price ratio. Almost disposable or they once were, times have changed but the Gren just more of a keeper especially given its starting price

I agree and I wonder if the Quartermaster will be purchased for that segment of the market, I would be buying one if I were back in time carting the camping, push bikes, surfboards, and the children on the road and off...we drove a VW Kombi dual cab then (y)
 
A while back my wife picked up a couple of these cheap LED striplights , thinking they might come in handy for something one day. That day arrived. Stuck the strip to a length of aluminium strip and ziptied it all to my home made cargo shelf. It works an absolute treat. Welcome to my stripjoint!

I did one of the more important parts of my build today.

I affixed the AED sticker onto Wally, to let people know I am carrying a heart defibrillator. One sticker on each side.

I hope that is not an invite to steal the AED!

Had truck wrapped with SunTek Ultra PPF. Mounted the Leitner 3/4 roof rack over two slow evenings. Fantastic material and design. Low profile, solid, beast of a rack. Then up a forest service road because, I dunno, it was there and the truck was too clean.

Matte black wrapped the paint above and below the grille to match the rest of the grille and headlight shroud. (Thanks; I stole this idea from someone here.) And the chrome strips across the stock grille always struck me as out of place (there's no other chrome on the vehicle!) so black those went. Pardon the sandwich. :LOL:

Next project is selecting cargo shelves, drawer, and fridge.
