Damn Nick, your one hell of a driver. Being able to pick up the right lines with no one spotting you is pretty impressive. Mux did really well. Looking forward to more content in the new year! Cheers mate and have a blessed new year to you and yours.
love the videos mate. im looking to get my self an MU-X next Year when the new one is released. love to see the capabilities of the MU-X and what i can do with it, i do like how your setup on the car. looking to see more content of the car and adventures .! cheers mate!
Same here. Getting rid of my Navara. Do you have a winch? I noticed the fairlead, but could see a hook.... Is the bullbar a factory fitted job?? Only started watching the video, and seems good so far. The olds have an MU-X and it tows their caravan pretty well......
@@darrindouglas1 Yep, i have a domin8r winch. I use a soft shackle made from dynema rope instead of a heavy metal hook. The bullbar is aftermarket AFN brand. 😊👍
Thanks for the video. Happy Christmas / New year. We have the exact same rig as you apart from color and all the awesome mods. We just fitted the tow bar after watching your video! Looking forward to adding the rest. Love your work.
Nick, your vehicle looks and performs exactly how I'd like - I guess that means I need to get one and do the same mods. Thanks for the vids, and all the best for the new year.
@@supercreek5381 If you have a look at my other videos I have build videos of pretty much every mod I have fitted to the mu-x. Have a squiz at some of them to see all the stuff I have fitted 😊
Looking good Nick. You don't have any lockers yet do you? Any plans? I like the look of the 'Lokka' brand auto locker. Put it in the front for the infamous IFS front wheel lift.
Hey Nick just wondering how you are finding the spring rates selected with the Outback armour suspension you have as I am looking to go a similar setup with draws, slide and front bar winch setup. Also keep the vids coming mate great stuff
Hey mate, new subscriber here. Awesome channel and videos! My wife own a 2017 mu-x. And I am just about to sell my old trusty 91 hilux (all decked out for camping) and end up with the missus car. Would you be able to give me a idea of how much you spent to get to where your rig is at the moment? Cheers
Be careful of those mud puddles without diff locks, I thought you were going to do what I did in my old series 3 SWB Land Rover years ago on that first one. I went into a building site at Coffs Harbour to test it out and on the track on the way out I didn’t avoid a mud puddle and ended up stuck at a 45 degree angle sideways less than 10 metres from a sealed road and had to call a tow truck. Extremely embarrassing.
Diff locks actually would have helped in my case cos the only reason I couldn’t get out was because both my left wheels had no traction and my right wheels were at the bottom taking most of the weight of my vehicle and I thought for an instant that Nick was going to end up in the same predicament. I know he’s got a winch and he’s ok but it’s still an inconvenience.
Good videos mate. Been considering a mux. And doing some research. Been reading these chew up CV for brekky. Kinda puts me off cause I tend to do the harder tracks also need to be able to twin lock it. Also you need to get a microphone 😁 keep up the good work
I think any IFS front vehicle will destroy cvs if you don't know how to drive and try and bounce your car up everything. I've never had any issues with cvs. You can get lockers for the mu-x I will eventually fit front and rear e lockers. 👍
Cool video can I ask what size rims and tyres your running. I have a 2013 dmax with a 2inch lift and I'm running 265/65 on the 17s I want to go up to the next size but stay on the 17s. So yea just wondering how you find them
@@daves6590 265/70r17 should be fine, i have heard quiet a few people running them without a lift kit. If you go up to 285/70r17 you need to chop the body mount as it scrubs on there.
@@LowRangeNick not at all mate I had the 265/65 before I did the lift kit and now they look tiny like I'm happy with how wide they are thinking of going to a 75 profile mabey your tyres look bigger with the aftermarket rims
@@LowRangeNick I really like them, be nice to have an auto and a bit more power and economy over the old 105 series. But coils all round and 4.2TD in bush you can't complain I guess
Awesome stuff mate .. planning to take the Patrol out there in a couple weeks .. looks like fun 👍

Thanks for sharing your video Nick. Also a satisfied owner of Isuzu MUX 4X4 in the Philippines
Thanks Carlo 😊
@@LowRangeNick Most welcome. Happy new year.
Nice video mate. Know that forestry well. Haven’t been out there in yrs. Mux is looking good.
Such a nice spot 😊
Nice video sir

Cheers Benny! All the best to you as well 😊
Nick can you give me a rough idea on what you have done to your one. Im in the process of buying a new one as well.

nice video mate 👌👊 and a nice 4x4 also
Thanks alot!!! 😊
Well done without a spotter
Looking good Nick. You don't have any lockers yet do you? Any plans? I like the look of the 'Lokka' brand auto locker. Put it in the front for the infamous IFS front wheel lift.
Hey Anthony, i will put front and rear e lockers in it eventually.
Good off road nick
nice rig nick I got 2011 twin cab ute haven't found its limits yet but im not searchin
Hey Nick just wondering how you are finding the spring rates selected with the Outback armour suspension you have as I am looking to go a similar setup with draws, slide and front bar winch setup. Also keep the vids coming mate great stuff
Hey Anthony, the spring rates are perfect. Works really well with the weight.
Hi Nick keep the videos coming, i to have a D Max, just wondering do you use body protection for the panels, if so what?
I dont use any, would be a good idea though 😊
Hi! Great video. Curios if you are in stock springs or lifted 2”? Thanks!
Can you do 0-100 acceleration test and topspeed? Thanks mate
lmao might be better off with a sports car mate
How much model is this Isuzu car?
Hey mate, new subscriber here. Awesome channel and videos!
My wife own a 2017 mu-x.
And I am just about to sell my old trusty 91 hilux (all decked out for camping) and end up with the missus car.

Diff locks won’t do shit in mud holes they are made for hills when wheels are up in the air and he has a winch so he is fine
Diff locks actually would have helped in my case cos the only reason I couldn’t get out was because both my left wheels had no traction and my right wheels were at the bottom taking most of the weight of my vehicle and I thought for an instant that Nick was going to end up in the same predicament. I know he’s got a winch and he’s ok but it’s still an inconvenience.
@@Cooliemasteroz All good, I have a winch and I thoroughly checked the mud puddle for depth and how soft it was. 👌
Good videos mate. Been considering a mux. And doing some research. Been reading these chew up CV for brekky. Kinda puts me off cause I tend to do the harder tracks also need to be able to twin lock it.

they don't chew CVs more than any other IFS, the Isuzu ones are pretty chunky actually.
Cool video can I ask what size rims and tyres your running. I have a 2013 dmax with a 2inch lift and I'm running 265/65 on the 17s I want to go up to the next size but stay on the 17s. So yea just wondering how you find them
I'm running 265/70r17 mud tyres on 17x8.5 positive 7.4mm offset. It's a pretty good setup.
I got 265/65r17 as the guy at the tyre shop said the 265/70s rubbed on the chassis? Do your tyres rub? I don't have any lift though
@@daves6590 265/70r17 should be fine, i have heard quiet a few people running them without a lift kit. If you go up to 285/70r17 you need to chop the body mount as it scrubs on there.
@@LowRangeNick must of got swindled lol, got off set 9 inch rims though give it a bit more stance, just wish I had the height...
@@LowRangeNick not at all mate I had the 265/65 before I did the lift kit and now they look tiny like I'm happy with how wide they are thinking of going to a 75 profile mabey your tyres look bigger with the aftermarket rims
Reckon you will change the exhaust?
Probably not, there's no real gain in changing the exhaust with the dpf models.
Any thoughts on a rear bar soon ?
No plans for a rear bar, little bit too much weight.
What is the rear suspension set up in these, and does your ifs front give you enough travel
Rear is live axle with coils. Front works pretty well.
@@LowRangeNick yea it actually looks good, fair bit of flex in rear helping that front but with some ifs no pumpkin clearance
@@LowRangeNick I really like them, be nice to have an auto and a bit more power and economy over the old 105 series. But coils all round and 4.2TD in bush you can't complain I guess
@@prezd_ I have come from a 105 series and 80 series previously and I think the mu-x is great! Such a nice 4x4 to drive on road and offroad.
Dude modify your hair!!
😂😂😂👌
