Mitsubishi Triton V6 Ute

We have just replaced the old company Ute with a new vehicle supplied by Houston Motors in Nelson.  The Mitsubishi Triton is a one-off 2wd, V6 Petrol, 5-speed manual double cab.

It has undergone our own in-house modifications transforming it into a great looking Truck.

We imported the 22″ chrome wheels from the USA.  The arch flares are from the 4 wheel drive model and the roof spoiler is made by us in-house.  We have painted the bumper, grille, mirrors, arch flares, deck caps and door frames.  The windows have been tinted and yet to be fitted are our lowered springs and dual exhaust exiting through the rear bumper.

VY Commodore on 20 x 10″ DTM’s

Brad’s is constantly delivering high expectations for customers specific vehicle desires.

This VY II Commodore is being fitted with monster 20 x 10″ and 20″x 9″”DTM alloy wheels/tyres and lowered with heavy duty Lovell springs and a body kit.

20 x 10″s don’t fit the body, so rolling and widening the rear wheel arches, rear bumper and rear doors have all been necessary to get the tyres inside throughout the full range of suspension travel.

Not a big job in itself but what a great look and result for the customer.
