Landcruiser Ute extra cab conversions

I was going to suggest 6th wheeler conversions in Dalby but when I checked their web site, they have stated that they have shut their doors due to a law change in Feb 07.

I don't know of any others unfortunately

Try 'creative conversions' at strathpine, i don't know if they have a website type it in & see what happens.

I think TL Engineering in Perth still make a dual cab kit. All the ones I have seen are 600mm.
Someone had a complete kit in the classifieds here for 9 months for $800 and couldnt sell it.
Of course its gone now;)

There is a guy in Jabiru that has a factory one, he said there were 700 made and brought in to the country.

They look good and you and keep the long tray.

Cheers Steve.

Met a guy in Ceduna who had a GQ wagon cut down to make an extra cab ute. As well as the body mod he had the chassis extended and put an 8" tray on the back. I am pretty sure he had the work done somewhere near Brisbane. Could have been creative conversions mentioned earlier.

Try Creative Conversions in Brendale, Qld, I've seen photos of a few of their conversions (wagons to D/C and Extra cabs) and the owners are more than happy.

Reiner,

Can't help you with the conversion, but it may be worth sitting in the front of a post 1999 79series to see how that compares - the cabs are 120mm longer than the 75series, and the wheelbase is 200mm longer.

I thought that the conversion companies prefer to chop down a troopie rather than extend a traytop.

Cheers

The only ones I know down our way doing them were Multidrive in Geelong but at over $5K thats alot of money just so you can put your bag behind the seat.
Cheers Craig..............

if you look undetr members and find the als you should find a contact number

Reiner, I bought an already modified Extra Cab ute a couple of years ago and then built a canopy for the back. It was very handy to be able to have my 60L fridge behind the seats and be able to lock valuables up. I think there is a photo in my profile of the rig at Tilpa.

These things pop up fairly regularly over the west - typically ex mine or commercial vehicles though. Unless you REALLY love your current cruiser the cost to mod it would (in my opinion) not be worth it. When I sold mine to buy the wagon I really didn't get any extra money for it than what a standard ute was worth. I thing you'll find the cost will be around the $10K mark too.

Anyway best of luck.
