We have fitted vehicle modifications to both vehicles for reliability, comfort, safety and health. There are some excellent fitment centers which provide expert advice. We think that the following are essential.
SuspensionDue to the increased weight being carried and the state of some of the roads, a heavy duty suspension has been fitted. The Old Man Emu modification is preferred.
ARB Bumpers Front and RearThis is a no brainer, and ARB makes the best bull/bar winch. The rear bumper carries the spare wheels.
WinchesTo winch or not to winch. We have decided to fit a Winch to one of the vehicles in case of emergency recovery in wet weather.
SnorkelAn important accessory to keep out dust from entering your engine as well as water.
FridgeThere is nothing better than a cold beer and a 40L Engel Fridge is the answer to keep drinks and food cold. We have also fitted a 50L National Lunar Fridge.
SpotlightsIt is not our intention to drive at night but if we have to, we have fitted spotlights as a precaution.
Two Spare WheelsThe ARB bumper at the rear will carry 2 spare wheels for ease rather than kept on the roof rack.
Dual BatteriesAdditional batteries will give us the extra reliability we are looking for as well providing enough battery power to run gadgets like computers.
Cargo BarriersThis is a safety accessory which provides protection from cargo landing on passengers.
Satellite Communication
We intend to install the latest technology where by we can communicate from anywhere on the African Continent by phone or by computer. The vehicles are fitted with 500 watt Inverters for charging laptops, cell phones and cameras.
