Daihatsu Taft F50 1983, battle location

dosop-Trained to pull the jeep into battle locations

Inadvertently, number plate F50 Taft Taft aka Kebo has an interesting meaning. By DK 460 GE berketrik plate, can grab the agoge said. Agoge in Greek means the nation's training ground fighters to gain specialized skills.

Well, similar to Taft F50 owned Rastana Sutta. This jeep was purposely built for competition trained his jeep took the fight to the location (call: off-road tracks). Of the jeep was not trained like the ancient Greek warriors. Just keep adding on the rear towing Taft. Perhaps the rider who needs trained (familiar) driving while holding vehicle behind.

At dosop previous editions, the reader has seen the red F50 Taft. F50 This one might equally a red. However, it is certainly different modification dong. If previous editions modified F50 with engine swaps using the Toyota Carina, Kebo Taft machine that belongs to a man living in Bali was still maintained.

Bolot machine constraint is also felt by Rastana. "Indeed, Taft F50 engine feels slow and noisy. After all, my designation is not to rush in to drive it, "said Rastana. Anyway, if the danger is also faster when holding the vehicle in the rear.

His name competition vehicles, unfortunately had to ply on public roads. Understandably, the engine flying hours wasted if used on regular roads. After all, other than that Rastana need service car carrying supplies spare parts to the location of off-road tracks. Instead of having to pay for two fuel vehicle, mending two vehicles together, right? Ya brilliant idea. He he he.

It turned out to hold competition jeep off-road track location has long been applied. Used Toyota FJ40 in charge of holding the competition jeep. But the journey from Denpasar to Gilimanuk alone spend inside. "The intention still want to save money, but it's really just wrote it?" Moaned men who like to stir the mud (off-road. red). "Finally I exchange FJ40 with Cherokee, because the target is more comfortable. Turned out to be more economical and tablets, "he added.

Because the competition is deemed jeep does not have the weight of the body and large, Rastana wanted a smaller car service. Finally the choice fell to the Taft F50. Turns Taft F50 machine is indeed friendly. Jeep trailer travel accommodation was so shrunk the rest one-third. "I first got the jeep with diesel engines, and it is more fun to trailer my jeep. more efficient! Hehehehe, "he whispered with a grin.

Do not want to have a random car service vehicles. This Taft F50 underwent restoration in terms of re-appearance. In order striking fall colors on the red Ferrari style combined with a mixture of gold xyralic. "Let not impressed Ferrari," he said. According Rastana, striking colors make parking easy to find time in a crowd of other Jeep vehicles during the event. After all, the Jeep does match the colors that attract attention.

To the innards to the legs, Rastana not make modifications. Simply replace it with new ones. Originally jeep stay comfortable and get to the location of the fight is enough. "does not reduce the ability when needed devour off-road locations are quite difficult. But still tasty when needed for daily activities. "Clearly this man born in Samarinda.

Color choice is fairly eye-catching because it makes people passionately and want to suck it. Indeed, this is the desired effect because Iwan Sugi makes it easier to attract people's attention when trade brought around.

It turns out his grooming is not enough to re-paint it, start the front bumper, and rear over fenders also faces made. Make their own front bumper with a sturdy design and multifunctional. Also winch roller was already perched on the front bumper. Uh, by the way where the front winch ya? "Prepared only once, which is important, right intention. He he he ..., "Iwan grin.

Taft Kebo original diesel engine was Bolot so exchanged. His successor former Toyota Carina engine JDM version coded 2C-T complete with matic transmission. With specification turbo diesel, run the tub his F50  injected high doses of vitamin C! "Can topspeednya easy, plentiful torque too!" Thin-boned man whispered it.

Automatic transmission option apparently has konskuensi extra work that keep the 4x4. "Ah, rather than bother mending so the only real 4x2! Hahahaha, "chortled Iwan. Moreover Kebo Taft is going to be widely used to down a paved road. So not only having a 2 wheel greasy important issue continues.

Let slamming the suspension feels more comfortable combination shockbreker Rancho RS9000 adjustable in front and behind the Universal Doestech intentionally installed.
