Made a set at turning my new swb frontera into a pick up. Only bought it on Saturday
First off I started by ripping out the rear seats , carpet and the side panels.
Items used part of an old metal bed frame to make a frame welded it in place then of course part of a frontera roof to box in two sections at the top.

My two toys

just fitted the power cable and kill switch for the rear anderson plug on the 110 just have to pop over my mates tomorrow and use his hydrolic crimper to fit the plug tomorrow.
a mate i play darts with gave me the power cable off his hi-lux as he does'nt use it as he sold his tipper trailer, going to do away with the battery on our trailer as you can bet when you need to tip it pronto the bastid will be flat also got enough anderson connectors to make a good set of jumper cables gets a bit tiresome taking out the passenger seat swab in the rain to jump start a car or the works van :doh:
