This is my 2001 Fronty which I have modified by fitting trooper springs, procomp shocks, 9mm ally bash plate, re-enforced rock sliders and an AirFlow snorkel (one for a holden Mu). The snorkel I got from France and was fitted by my father-in-law and myself. It took about 4hrs to fit with slight modifications. I will be posting a full thread including pics on all the mods done to my Fronty when I get an evening free. The next project is a winch :) and maybe rear lockers :D
If at first you don't succeed BUY A FRONTY

Rear diff locker IE: Aussie locker, Detroit locker, ARB air locker, Lock-right or Lokka. Because most Frontys come with open diff's there are a few that should fit, most Fronty B's have fitted a Dana 44 32 spline open diff. I am looking for a Fronty B with a LSD before I go down the locker route. If anyone has one please let me know? If your not sure just look at the vin number under the bonnet, if it has G80 in it its a LSD or it may have 2 tags on the diff bolts one if the ratio the other is LSD. Thanks :dance:
