Sup Legends 👷! Thanks for checking out the latest video. I had a blast doing this one for you guys, I'm looking forward to testing it out on the tracks soon 🚜 *PLEASE NOTE* Don't use my measurements as my car is elevated off the ground ☝️
I watched this whole video thinking but... why... as soon as it showed the final view, my mind was changed. love watching all your videos mate, where do you get your Inspiration from?
@@jpcaptured799 why a d40 one? Do they just have better clearance? And do they bolt straight up to the np? Iv been wanting to do a tub chop for a while, but i also want a jet ski 😂 and i havent seen any tub chops with tow bars. Love ya work bro. 🤙
It's funny how we want to build what we don't have.. if I had the $$ I would get a tray and canopy 😊 but I am really enjoying modifying the tub. Skies the limit right now with it.
@@jpcaptured799 well considering my tray and half canopy is costing 14k, I probably should have kept the tub and put that money towards other stuff haha
will the spare tyre cause the next problem? It seems to hang low and at the back. Also looks like that the tyre is the original what came with the car ?
Love this! Really keen on doing the same but I’ve heard that the rigidity of the tub goes downhill after tub chops (like it wobbles at speeds) as the bottom of the tub that’s chopped off actually gives strength to the tub overall. Have you had any issues?
Great job man! I'm looking forward to whatever your plans are, I have a Renault Alaskan which is based on the Navara and i take a lot of inspiration from you.
@@jpcaptured799 yes! It's exactly the same car, they're assembled on the same factory and rebadged por different markets. I think mine comes from Mexico.
why does eberyone still have there stock tyre under there ute it shits me off lol your talking about departure angles and getting caught up on shit get rid of it
Improve the departure angles. So the tub doesn't scrape on the ground when going up big hills or rocks. Scraping on the ground decrease momentum etc... plus may damage the car.

This makes me even more keen to chop mine soon 👌🏼👌🏼
Hahah love the popcorn scene JP. good work again 🤙
Thanks man 🙌
Tub chop’s look mint 🤙
Agreed 💯👍
The results are great 👍 looks the part, it’s like the tub went on a trimming diet 🤔😎
Weight reduction for street racing George 😆👍
Thanks to my young bloke he showed me this vid and now we have chopped our d40
That's awesome Chris, Did it come up as you wanted it to look?
@@jpcaptured799 yep now we are doing the tow bar the same way you done yours too
Hey Chris do you have any photos of your d40 rear chop very interested in doing it but just so scared ahah
@@ethanprobert5080 I can get some I’ll see if my young bloke has some on his phone
Can’t work out how to post pics on here lol
The ideas are starting to flow my own build! Thank you for sharing this with us 👍
That came up awesome.
Thanks man I'm wrapped 🤙
When are u designing and welding up a bumper? Also how will u attach the under fender bumper to the frame to act as a rock slider?
I watched this whole video thinking but... why... as soon as it showed the final view, my mind was changed. love watching all your videos mate, where do you get your Inspiration from?
Cheers legend 👍 I like it, and once the tube bar is finished I think it's going to look even better. And also the added panel protection will be good.
Don't forget to give the paint a good wash and clay bar so you don't end up with little rust spots from the grinder 🤙
Thanks man I did forget to cover this in the vid. what's a clay bar out of curiosity??
Man such a qualilty content always hope you'll get a good growth for this channel.
Thank you 🙌 I hope so too 😊
Another great how-to Vid. You share a whole lot of detailed info. Btw, the white pinch weld looks good.
Thanks and thanks. Yeh the white pinch weld is growing on me 🤔😁
Killa vid!
Cheers Cuz 🤙
Hell yeah looks awesome man! But damn you got some balls chopping into a brand new car!
Just for you guys 😌😆👌
It's just a tub. People sell them cheap as chips when they put trays on.
Sweet spare bruh..
haha nah it actually turned out pretty nice! another great DIY video. Cant wait to see how it all turns out with a rear bar
Haha I shoulda taken it off before the vid.. bahahaha l. Thanks bruz 🤙
What Make are the wheels!? They look awesome
Are you planning on have a tow bar intergrated into your custom rear bar?
I don't have any current plans on towing but you know what I might consider integrating a d40 bar into it 🤔
@@jpcaptured799 why a d40 one? Do they just have better clearance? And do they bolt straight up to the np? Iv been wanting to do a tub chop for a while, but i also want a jet ski 😂 and i havent seen any tub chops with tow bars. Love ya work bro. 🤙
damn, making me wish i kept the tub and did a chop instead of putting on this expensive tray on my np300

Yup that's going for sure. The spare will be mounted in the tub.
Not my cup of tea, but I still like the video and like all the comments
That's nice of you to say mate, cheers 👍
What size lift kit and tyres are you running and are you running a body lift
lift is a comp shocks 3n2 with 295/70R17 tyres
no body lift ... yet... :-)
Looks great. Look fowards to seeing yur custom bumper. Are you selling the bumper that you took off?
Just wondering as I’d be keen to do this to my lux . Tho is this legal in nsw ?
Hey mate what size pinch weld did you use ?
Awesome mod. Time to sort out that spare wheel JP?
You bet 😉 When I go off-road I take a spare Razr, but need to find a good mounting spot for it.
What's the size of your tires bro?
Hey mate are you looking for someone to buy the read bar? Because I’d be down for that
You may as well leave that spare at home 😂👌
Yeh it's just the POS factory spare anyway 🤣 it'll be getting ripped off and Razrs mounted in the tray.
Love this! Really keen on doing the same but I’ve heard that the rigidity of the tub goes downhill after tub chops (like it wobbles at speeds) as the bottom of the tub that’s chopped off actually gives strength to the tub overall. Have you had any issues?
No issues with the at all. You can trim and reinstall the metal shield plates in the wheel arch as they do give some extra support.
@@jpcaptured799 nice cheers for the reply 👍
Great job man! I'm looking forward to whatever your plans are, I have a Renault Alaskan which is based on the Navara and i take a lot of inspiration from you.
I just had a look on the web at the Alaskan! That's a cool looking car. Does it also have the 2.3L diesel??
@@jpcaptured799 yes! It's exactly the same car, they're assembled on the same factory and rebadged por different markets. I think mine comes from Mexico.
It comes with a 2.5l diesel turbocharged.
Thanks for sharing this with me. It's a great platform and I'm glad that it made it to so many different countries around the world.
Hey mate what wheels and tires you running ? Just curious
Maxxis Razr 295/70R17 on 17x9 allied wolfs
Was feeling sorry for everyone behind you before you said mudflaps.
Haha, they look better without them but your right it's the people behind you that suffer 😌🤙
Should black out all your badges
Haha, maybe
why does eberyone still have there stock tyre under there ute it shits me off lol your talking about departure angles and getting caught up on shit get rid of it
Should have covered the rest of your car the sparks from the grinder will fuck your paint
hey JP why did you do this ?
Improve the departure angles. So the tub doesn't scrape on the ground when going up big hills or rocks. Scraping on the ground decrease momentum etc... plus may damage the car.
What Tom said 👌 you can also check out 00:50
Wanna sell your rear bar?
Ugly looking spare, no number plate light , will wobble like jelly and good luck with rego next year, maybe alloy tray would do the same job!
Maybe keep watching to find out 😉
