Gordy's build

[OneMofo]

GME are not a bad unit plus it's slim line so easy and plenty of places to install.
I'm about to add shackles myself. They are quite easy install.

 

[navtruckchic]

The world of ute modifying is never ending but I don't really have anything better to do in my spare time other than go to the gym haha

 

[OneMofo]

Gym is good. Stop u from buying stuff for the ute. Works for me.

 

[navtruckchic]

But it doesn't work when u buy stuff for your ute whilst at the gym! Damn u ebay!!

 

[OneMofo]

Hahaha makes it too easy. Stupid internets.

 

[her.d22]

Do you have the same dramas as me with clipping the tonneau or am I just weak? Haha

 

[OneMofo]

Nah they are hard, my mate has one on his tub. I have a tray now so no issue.

 

[her.d22]

It's really bloody tight! Do they loosen at all over time?

 

[OneMofo]

It's better that way......keeps it from filling with water when it rains. his is only a 12 months old and still pretty right.
Where are those gym muscles??

 

[her.d22]

True but it's going to get in if I can't clip the bloody thing up haha. I've heard they leak anyway where the sports bar joins to the tub. Only just bought the ute but it concerns me a little because I'm going to have to figure out a way to keep my camping gear dry when we go on a trip. As for gym muscles, lost them long ago when I gave up my active lifestyle to become a shift worker haha. Frozen meals and energy drinks = my diet haha

 

[OneMofo]

I know the shift worker life style, you will get a little seepage but not a lot. Could buy a hard top they are inch better but still limiting in other ways.

 

[her.d22]

It's great isn't it?! ...not.
Glad to hear its not a lot. Not a fan of the hard tops. Looks like I just have to build up my muscle again haha

 

[sparra04]

Aahh 12hr nightshifts
did it for 14yrs
Never again

 

[her.d22]

Haha the joys!! Have 2 hours left to go. 12 hour nights are the worst...

 

[Navmania]

Gave up 12hr night shift 8 months ago. 20 years I did it for. The company I worked for wanted to change to a 5 day shift. 5 nights a week, no thanks. Never felt better, it will kill you early that for sure. No more TV dinners. I know how that is.

Na mines gotten easier since I put it on but still tight as.
It does leak a little but my swag lives in the back and it's always dry.

Gotta love shift work!!

 

[sparra04]

I did my last 12 hr nightshift in feb this year and I am still trying to get back to a normal sleep pattern
anyway lets get back on topic

 

[navtruckchic]

Haha and I thought I was the queen of off topic, they've been busy over night lol.

Will continue build convo after I finish work lol

Hey Gordy. Here's the front on shots you asked for.

Yep, it sucks! I'm a nurse so the majority of the positions are shift work..
