We’ll kick things off at the logical starting point: the very
front of the 4x4. There’s a growing trend among late-model
4x4 owners to work with the design of their vehicle rather
than against it – form and function working together. With
that mindset, Cale searched high and low for a bullbar that’d
give him the protection needed for remote touring, without
covering up the instantly recognisable styling of the 200.
He found it at the end of a lengthy import process, with an
Ultima bar coming from Viper 4x4 in Venezuela. Shoehorned
inside the bar is an Ox winch that’s best described as
un-killable. Cale laughingly assured us he’s never found
himself on the business end of it, but it’s seen countless use
recovering others or dragging fallen trees off the tracks. An
LED light bar from Rigid Industries keeps it company on the
Cruiser’s front.
Down each side is a pair of Viper 4x4 heavy-duty sidesteps
that provide easier entry and exit without trekking mud
inside. Cale says they’re more than strong enough to protect
the sills, having taken the Cruiser’s full weight more than a
few times in their life.
