@@NoMossNomadsagreed, I dropped my Van off there for some more welding. Absolute legend Hugh is. I noticed my Van in your intro. Your extension is looking tops. Will see you guys on the road I'm sure, as we leaving for a lap in the next few weeks.
Another fantastic episode. Hugh from Limitless Chassis IS a legend, and great on camera too! Excellent video footage of the process involved with extending the chassis. Now we are hanging out for the next stage in the build process.
@@NoMossNomads I know this will be amazing. We toyed with the idea of a Tommy Camper over our Ranger but we gave up on the idea due to the weight and I was going to pick up agency nursing work once on the road. Now that I still have my telephone based nursing job and can work remotely, we do still need two work spaces, but we will prolly make do with an annex....nowhere near as sexy as a slide on camper!!!
Looks very awesome. I’ve been toying with the same idea for our MR triton. Also appreciate you being upfront about costs and that you didn’t pay full price.
Great vid as always 👍🏻 being a truck driver and worrying about axle weights daily always been a big thing on my mind triton axle position good too see the process to get it done
We’re stoked and confident with it! Toni said towing the van feels good (the back is obviously not loaded atm) and parking etc is no issues. Excited to see how it all goes with the new set up!
For a single guy yeah, its ok for temporary trips. For a family I prefer the caravan for the needed space and longer term goals of upgrading into a self sufficient block of land.
Excellent video - I have the same model Triton and have been considering this mod and the GVM upgrade for a slide-on camper setup. Impressed with the crew at limitless chassis.
Good work. Does Hugh fit the engineers plate? That's the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Can you/did you get a GVM upgrade? Can you/did you get a GCM upgrade?
Hey mate, yeah he sure does, I actually filmed the process with the mod plate but didn’t actually hit record on the camera 🤦🏽♂️ no we didn’t get our GVM upgraded on paper, in a practical sense we can carry more weight and are safe (we’ve had everything done to increase GVM, but haven’t paid the engineer) and to my knowledge you can only increase GCM before the vehicle is ever registered in Queensland.
Towing is a lot better with the chassis extended. The weight distribution across the front and rear axels is a lot more even and with a longer wheelbase the load carrying capacity is improved 👍
The mans a professional!
Love the quality workmanship
Cant wait to see the finished rig..... What a awesome job done by Limitless Chassis .. Well done guys
👍Hugh👍 Limitless Chassis
haha thumbs up for Hugh the Chassis Shaman!

Thanks for sharing that guys, definitely a great upgrade for the MQ, like it alot. Looking forward to seeing the next updates.

Ok please don’t tell me I wasn’t the only one impressed seeing how the spare tyre was lowered??? (Shani) haha
🤙
Well there you go, now you'll be able to get it out if need be !! LOL :-)). Cheers.
@@gerdacoonan7250 haha definitely something I should have known, but I'm learning :) Cheers Kev
It’s great to see you are also so excited and interested Shani, so cool👍

How did the tail shaft get extended?
thank you for great detail video
Glad you enjoyed it 🤙🏽
How did you go with insurance after the extension and getting mod plate ?
Hi guys.
Can this be done on a rear engine bus too...??
Thinking my ml might get the same treatment soon
Cool man, hope the video shed some light on the process for you
very impressed so far can't wait to see what is next
does he extend any ute model or just mist
Cheers mate and Hugh extends all the other models as well 👍🏽
Now how do you shorten a cab
Interesting vid i am curious to know whether u can still tow the van if you need to does it throw all your axle weights out

high tec paint mask :)
How much does this conversion cost mate ?
Hi bro does do n80 hilux
Couldn't think of anything worse then a customer standing under my hoist watching me work, the lack of self awareness is amusing
How do I get the wife to move from scotland to drive around Oz
ziptie fuel filler! currently have mine the same
Haha awesome, if it does the job 🤷🏽♀️
Turning circle of a cruise ship?
You mean, still a better turning circle than a cruiser?
Haha nah its not bad at all, so far parking has been fine too 👍
I think you'll find a cruise ship can pretty much turn on itself with bow thrusters but I think we all picked up what you were putting down 👍
Has anyone ever extended a 4x4 and not made a video about it?
I’d say there would be plenty more that haven’t filmed than filmed.
Yep, right now!
