picked up an 05 MK triton a year or so ago to replace my 185 surf
surf was a good tow truck but had 1 major downside of absorbing the smell of our 2 dogs
the MK was a genuine 1 owner truck with 300thou on the clock but religiously serviced and in really tidy condition
Only things i added for a start was a snorkel and some 265/75/16 cooper stt pros
so far the tritons been reliable as ever with only 1 real issue
the seats are bloody horrible
so over the lockdown i've been looking at options to swap them out for something a little comfier
the popular consensus was that pa challenger seats were the simplest option
so in they went and by god it was the right decision
no more getting a numb ass after being on the road for more than 5 mins
these have some height adjustment as well so my partner can now actually see over the bonnet to drive
Thats all ive done so far currently saving my pennies to be able to build a basic front bar with winch and the ability to mount rated tow hooks as at present the front only has the factory hook
Cheers Alex
