A pretty good sight out the front of Adaptive today 👌

Two Ranger Super Duty LWB builds nearly ready to head off to their new owners—one fitted with a 2.1m Norweld tray and the other with an MW Toolboxes tray and canopy.

Nothing beats hearing back from happy customers, especially when they take our builds straight to the test.

One of our absolute highlights this week was feedback on our very first Ford Ranger Super Duty LWB build. The owner loaded it up to 4.2 ton and took it straight up to Cape York - reporting back that the rig handled the trip perfectly.

Huge thanks to everyone trusting us with their builds!

The longer wheelbase creates more usable chassis length for your choice of tray, service body, canopy or camper setup.

Paul and Robbie dropped in for a visit to show us the latest addition to their 𝗗𝗠𝗔𝗫+𝟯𝟭𝟬 𝗦𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝗖𝗮𝗯: 𝗮 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱-𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗶𝗱 𝗰𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗲𝗿.

This turnkey project started with Wayne Phillis Isuzu Ute supplying the Dmax Space Cab. We then laid the groundwork with our +𝟯𝟭𝟬𝗺𝗺 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗲𝗹𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝗲𝘅𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 and a 𝟯𝟲𝟳𝟬𝗸𝗴 𝗣𝗲𝗱𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗚𝗩𝗠 𝘂𝗽𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗲, from there it made its way to Triple M to get the Alloy tray fitted. When they drove out of the showroom last time back in March, the ute was fully prepped for this final stage.

Now complete and ready for the long roads ahead, Paul and Robbie are gearing up for a lap around Australia. We really appreciate them taking the time to share the finished project with the team so we could grab a few photos.

Wishing you both safe travels, we cannot wait to see where the road takes you!

We engineered and fitted a 𝟮𝟵𝟴𝗺𝗺 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗲𝗹𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝗲𝘅𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 on this Ranger Super Duty to maximize its payload footprint, providing the ideal foundation and weight distribution for heavy rear loads.

With the chassis extended, the client completed the setup with a 𝗧𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘆 𝗖𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗦𝟲-𝗫 𝗖𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗲𝗿, running on 𝗖𝗦𝗔 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗲𝗹𝘀 and additional gear to make it fully remote-ready.
