I’ve had my Triton for 5 months now and every time I think I need at add something I realise I don’t need it. Agree with the out of the box setup. Pretty good for the low price you pay.
Bought the 2012 Triton (auto) in well 2012.. 9 years on it don't look original any more. Lifted, 35" wheels, Winch, bar work, lights, canopy, dual battery, antennas, etc, Done the Borneo 2x. Keeps up with the best and then more. Awesome machine
With the exception of slashing the wall on one on a buried star picket, i have given my Triton 2021 stock tyres hell and they have done just fine. Regular use off road, living on a farm deep east gippsland. 32k km and still plenty tread.
I did the Binns Track on the way to the Finke, with a two wheel drive Holden Rodeo Tray top with $ 50 light truck tyers. Went to Kakadu on the way home threw the Western Mc Donald Ranger's, Not once did I get a puncture or had a issue. Like you say pick your lines and you'll be fine....never once did I deflate the tyres. I made it . Might have been lucky who knows. Since bought a MR Triton ready to do it all again. 😀🔥🌴🐪
Mate, I like your work and your passion for the car that nothing can frighten. I will hit the subscribe button.
Just some honest feedback here, if I had $2k to spend to make my MR more off-road capable. I have upgraded my tyres to achieve maximum sidewall height. My tyres are approximately 20mm bigger in diameter, compared to the stock tyres, so about 10mm higher off the ground overall. Any gain in clearance, even 10mm, reduces the impact on underbody wear and tear. The extra clearance from higher sidewall tyres also help reduce getting hung up on whatever is sticking out on the track.
Taller sidewall tyres also bag out more, when deflating. So you get more traction.
If you buy a bullbar to increase your 4wd capabilities, all you’re doing is adding dead weight to the front of your car. This will help get you bogged. The bullbar will also reduce the capacity of your high impact crumple zone system, making your family vulnerable if you hit a roo or whatever while on the highway. Google John Cadogan bullbar for more info mate.
L300 also very best small truck pick up popular in Indonesia use to carried oil Palm three to four ton
I've got an EFS Xcape hoopless bar, which includes 2 X 3.5t rated recovery points.
Great look, fit, and added a 13k pound Recon 13 winch, all for under $2k.
Yes, I know what you’re saying about the front bar. Had some damage done at Loveday. I’ve been keen on a Piak 3loop also, but would like to spend the extra on colour coding for the looks.
Keep up the good work on your vids pal. Always interested in them.
Yeah the colour coding looks fantastic 👌
First 2k, a winch bracket + winch. After that I'd prefer to go with front lockers first, I'll use up the treads first or wait for it to puncture till I buy a/t's. Triple locked even with stock height + tires will go almost anywhere I'd say, especially with a winch.
I popped the original mr tyre within the first 10000ks in the vic high country, didn't have a problem with them until that point, however it is definitely worth noting that factory fitted tyres are definitely not the quality of there aftermarket counterpart
Im looking at the Piak bar too. First ive heard of any issues with overheating
Id buy a snorkel before any other mod
Snorkel and tyres would be the first mods I would do. Then bullbar and rock sliders to protect from damage.
I feel exactly the same about the stock rims and tyres 🤣 but I can't justify spending the money right now when they do what I need
Absolutely, no doubt I'll replace them on my next set of tyres but for now they do the job 😎
My Stock Pajero with Normal Pirellis and now rhe A/T pirellis super capable on the beach.
have a piak loopless bar on my MR- the guys from Wolf 4x4 that installed it told me that they were rated recovery points- great videos !!
Yeah the website has a separate section for the recovery points. Elsewhere numbers are generally that they are rated at 3000kg each.
You are a straight shooter, I'm a subscriber; I respect the perspectives you present in your reviews. However, the OEM MR Triton tyre is a puncture prone, cheap tyre. Yes, the Triton can be had at the right budget, but its price point demands expenditure to make it at least, adequate, in rural, outback, Australian terrain.
Interested to see how the piak looks in a video. Been eyeing up one for a while for our mr as it's the only bar on the tritons I really like. Front bumper has copped a hiding!

Got piak bar on mine
Yes Bradley has a great walk around video! When I do the install I'll make sure I cover every step so you guys can see what you're buying 👌
@@mrtriton5405 love the videos mate look forward to seeing the install videos
honest review from a real life truck owner.
Just got my 2020 pajero sport with the piak bar
If you're fitting a bullbar spend the money and buy the arb, I have the piak and have had nothing but airflow and overheating issues only to be rectified by fitting a $1700 intercooler
How do you know the arb bullbar would be any better ?
@@braydenking8653 its about the size of the intake in front of the intercooler, compare them against the factory bumper
Picked up a slightly damaged piak 3 bar for $550. What do i do with the other $1450?😅
Great content mate. Loving my MR 🤙
Spend it on adverts to sell it
Not all the way through the video yet. But I had to stop to say. Bridgestone duellers are a terrible tyre. I have owned the standard ones that come on a glx+ and they are terrible so I upgraded to 265/75r16 duelers and they got punctured 4 times I had 15xxxkms on them so I ended upgrading to 285/75r16 Goodyear wrangler duratracs and I couldn’t be happier with them. Let’s say you’re working with a little more than $2000 the first few mods you would do to be capable is lift tyres and bullbar for approach and departure angle. I’ve taken my mr through some stuff that most mr tritons will never go through and it’s done it all with ease
I agree
Love this content👍
If you keep on loving it, I'll keep making it for you 🤝
Lockers are the first mod everyone should do
Great Video. I'm really happy with my 2016 MQ GLX. I brought it 3 months back as a work ute. I really want to upgrade the rims and tires, but the first thing I spent my 2k on was the MCC (McAmour) 'Blue eagle 01' , 3 loop, full front bumper replacement . I paid more to get it fitted by the agent here, because it required cutting plastics around the wheel arches. It's rated and set up for a winch but I don't need a winch yet. I'm glad I made the right decision according to your conclusion. Cheers Brother👍
I basiclly stole it 🤣🤣 as of 2mins ago im a instant subby 🤙🏽 love your work man tritons a bang for buck ute i was considering buying one brand new but i ended up buying an almost new np300 navara 3015 model st twin turbo diesel auto already kitted iut by arb and lovw it next ute will be a trito im thinkin
From what I hear the next model will be a joint venture between Mitsubishi and Nissan 👌
That will be exciting mate never heard that
Good info mate 👏 keep it up!
Should have a look at the bocar bull bar,just had one installed on my MR,
I'll have a look 🙂
How are the indicators that's the biggest problem I have with the piak bar they only have a really small indicator and people have trouble seeing them
@@bradleyswift1986 as big as the fog lights
If u could buy a new triton today what would u buy eg gsr ?
Depends what you're looking for. For holidaying with family I'd get as much luxury as I could afford for the family's sake. For my purposes though, I'd still grab the mine spec GLX as the interior is forgiving, I'm not scared to scratch the paint and difflockers are overrated 👍
do not buy piak bar mate...heard to many stories of them cracking front headlights due to poor fit and also overheating due to poor air flow.... the quality, fit and finish is not even comparable to the australian made ARB bars. Ive got the summit bar on my gls premium and its fits perfect and the quality is second to none.
Do not snatch of any non rated point.... i went for the ARB recovery point on mine for piece of mind as its bolted to the chassis sperate to the bull bar.
Agree about the rated points! Plenty of bars out there and plenty of mixed reviews for sure :) Sounds like I need to do some more research!
@@mrtriton5405 Im in adelaide too mate, go to jakem and saunders abit, so might catch you out there one day. Cheers.
The headlights are easy to remove and then you can grind the bar back a bit with a flap disk on your angle grinder. I have the Piak no loop bar on my MR with a winch fitted and, despite towing 3 tonnes of firewood trailer around, have not had any overheating issues.
Is the 2022 triton Glxr any good?
Haven't driven a 2022 model myself but a mate of mine owned a 2020 glxr and loved it. Ended up upgrading to a bt50 because it had a better interior 👍
The bullbar you have told us to get, is not adr approved
The video relates to making your Triton more capable off road. If I was going to recommend an overall winner it wouldn't be the PIAK 3 loop. Stay tuned for the next video which relates to the MR Triton Bullbars.
Source? Because the website says that it is, the mounting instructions say that it is, the sticker on it says that it is, and retailers say that it is.
Did you get your mr tuned?
Nah never tuned it. At this stage it has more than enough power for what I do
MR Piak bullbar looks good
Your joking right?
The Ironman commercial deluxe looks 10x better
You think I can have fun in a 4x2 triton? Looking for your reply
Love your enthusiasm! You'll struggle off-road for sure, especially on sand or mud but you could probably tackle some basic tracks if you have decent ground clearance 🤣
@@mrtriton5405 thanks for your reply. Might save up more to get that sweet super select. Hope your channel grow more man.
@@pickupmr.3978 Thanks for the love 🤝
fwiw I got an LSD fitted on my old 4x2 and it helped a lot. good set of bigger off-road tyres with low psi also helps!
You are full of it
Cheers Brad x
This is all talk……….
Buy another truck!
I don't have a truck
I quit watching after hearing diff locks are not needed
If you have enough skill off-road you don't need them 🤣
