Sirs, madali lang ba kayang tanggalin at ibalik yung dual lid ng carryboy? Like for instances na kelangang mag-load ng tall cargos?

Sirs, madali lang ba kayang tanggalin at ibalik yung dual lid ng carryboy? Like for instances na kelangang mag-load ng tall cargos?

So far sa lahat ng LID ng carryboy eto yung pinakamadaling alisin... it has only 4 screw.. pati yung electrical wiring nya may socket sa ilalim quick release. all you need is alen wrench (tama ba?)

hi sir, need you advice, im now working in getting my new strada (2010 3.2 gls sport) soon.. and i want to upgrade the rims/tires as soon as i get it from the dealer.. sir, i wanted to put 24" but as you mentioned hindi kaya.. wala ba talagang remedy sa 24"?

by the way, any recomendation where to buy a good deal of rims/tires? and also, i always like fender flares without paint (looks clean and neat).. where did you get it? (i thought of removing the paint of my gls or buy new set without paint)

Hi Sir Out 101!

here's my take regarding your question.

For the 24" being installed in the strada IMO I think it would be possible by lifting the truck 3 inches or higher....If you could back read few threads ago...Sir G01 fitted a set of 22" wheels when he had his lift kits installed in jeffs in baguio and from the looks of it I think the one that is gonna be eliminated is the rubbing of the tires to the mud flaps only...but the clearance to the suspension and to the body itself IMO cannot be guaranteed, meaning when you encounter sudden road change glitches and potholes it might be possible that the tires or the mags itself may collide to the parts of the suspension and body what more for the 24" but I could be wrong though...I hope sir G01 can enlighten us on this one... on the clearance of the 22's,
so for the 24" I think you need to lift more than the usual lift of 3 inches to fit those Outrageous mags.

On the other hand (I'll exaggerate it a little bit but please do find this as a humorous kwentong inuman and a counter thought to help you know the cons) The 24" mags is very impractical unless your gonna use it just to travel from your house to the grocery once a week or rather you will be entering your truck to a car show, or perhaps your office is only less than 1KM away from your house .... But if your gonna use it as a daily driver Considering the road conditions here....Im pretty sure that paying about 250K+++ is not totally worth it, yes you will definitely make heads turn, But the question is for how long? kung puro gasgas at bengkong na ang Mags? Right? . Well, not unless your ultra mega rich and each time you speak there's money coming out from your mouth and you could replace the mags anytime of the day hehe


For the fenders naman sir....I think if you are really decided to get your fenders colored black I would suggest na you buy nalang the black aftermarket fenders like BM's for the reason that iba parin yung original factory paint thats on your original fenders and for me nakakapanghinayang patungan....plus the fact that syempre inde mo rin masasabi na indi mo pagsasawaan yung black right? so kung mangayari man yun it wouldn't be a hassle painting it kasi you still have the original ones so you wouldn't lack options ...and ang mangyayari nyan is bolt in bolt out ka lang....

For the wheel packages Auto Options and dubshop (if you go for the 24's) in timog ave. they offer a wide array of choices....But you could always go to blumentritt and west ave. ^_^


Hope it helps...

When will you get your unit sir? I hope Malapit ka na mag goodbye sa Sleepless Nights! but I think indi rin kasi iisipin mo naman kung ano yung ilalagay mo na mods...haha!

Goodluck Sir! hope to meet you soon!

Don't forget to be a member of TSCP .... ^_^

yes sir- i agree with sir LR777 1000%... no need to go to the extreme sizes. When i first found out that the Strada GLS Sport had 17" it came as a bit of a surprise for me and got accustomed to it when i knew the Outlander/Lancer EX GT/GT-A had 18 inches- the Biggest OEM in the market to date! hehehe...

in addition to this, we have fellow BOSB Boy25 who fitted 20" mags... you can back read to see how it looks like po. It looks big enough for me. IMO it is a standout among us club members to this date...

We are really looking forward for you to receive your much awaited Strada and hop onboard the club. I know it has been a long wait for you. don't forget to sleep though... thanks.

[GAIDEN]

Sir, mga ilang boxes kayang kargahin nito?

[ooba99]

Doc kasya po sya sa dual lid i already tried.. mas mataas kasi yung dual lid sa loob.

Sorry, my bad. I got confused with the question.

Reviewing the question... I revise my answer... Yes, kasya sya sa cargo bed na may dual lid cover.

Thanks, alainroyce for correcting.

thanks! mine is the glx variant.

leather cover is from seatmate mandaluyong... for the map lamp (standard sa gls models) i got it sa el dorado cubao, but i think available yan sa dealers pero order basis.

2 years ago, the mickey thompson is 9,500 per tire... baka tumaas na ngayon.

after you get your unit, join ka sa strada club... dami mo makukuha tips and discounts

If you get there early, the mods you mentioned can be installed in a day. I suggest that you call either miggyboy and/or carryboy to check on availability of the items that you desire to be placed on your strada. You can google their websites for contact numbers.
