Turning the Ford Territory into the ULTIMATE off-road tourer

We're turning the Ford Territory into the ultimate off-road tourer. Lift kit and new tyres really transform the humble Territory.
Plus where better place to trial than the tracks of Lithgow!

Love the video it's very very well done. Still hate the spring compressors you are a brave man. I'm going to have to take a closer look at the front upper arm mounts and possibly sort something out for my kit's.

[@alwaysAWD]

thanks mate last time with manual spring compressors let's hope haha

[@olliemorgan4187]

Nice safety boots.

[@Spoonfed78]

That badge 👌🤣 Nice build, did consider doing a turbo territory like this years ago.

[@alwaysAWD]

shame it's not red 😂 cheers mate 🤙 the scene has come a long way in the last 2 years, always worth looking into again

[@forbiddenvisuals]

You are a brave man. Hate those compressors with a passion

[@alwaysAWD]

they really do suck ay

[@adsmerkz3421]

Was waiting for that spring to boing into the next suburb being compressed like that! Great vid bud! What tools did you use for this btw?? Keep the vids coming 😊!

[@MrMagnat007]

Knowing my luck, If I had done it... the Spring would have shot off... hit the neighbours D22 Navara and most likely have managed to strike some wild life out of flight !

[@-sandman4605]

I'm doing the same with mine, i have just fitted a LSD Rear and a torque locker up front and doing 2 inch lift in couple of weeks time. I strongly advise a LSD & Torque locker up front as it has made a massive difference in the beach sand 👌

[@alwaysAWD]

Nice one mate! Wasn't aware you could lock the TC in the Territory's - how did you manage to do that?

[@chrisblandford9260]

Im also interested in a torque locker as Im doing a awd swap into a ba ute. I don't want to set abs so that front wheel stops spinning while in the air and not putting power to the wheel on the ground.

[@Chandlers_builds]

Yeah I’m interested because I thought you couldn’t modify the front differential in the territory

[@-sandman4605]

@@Chandlers_builds First thing you need to put the traction control to sleep or delete all together, as for adding a torque locker a mate of mine did all that for me, cost of a torque locker is about $650.00.

[@sauplink7975]

Awesome. These are so underrated. Make a good easy canvas. Especially with the straight 6. Cheers nz

[@alwaysAWD]

thats it they're so easy to modify and improve 🤙

[@sauplink7975]

@@alwaysAWD absolutely appreciate sharing your experience too. Legend mate :)

[@MrMagnat007]

I think that might have been the thing that the "Suspension Expert" tried to tell me if I lifted the front. Keith... I think you might need to start making bash plates to go with the lift !!! Job Well done and it looks amazing.. Although I am not keen on Black rims unless they are on a White car... but those tires look great ! and not a single Snap-on or Milwaukee tool in sight ! Although, a Trip to Bunnings for an Ozito Air Compressor and a rattle gun might have sped the project up a bit lol ! Awesome Work cannot wait to see where you take the Canyonero now !

[@alwaysAWD]

cheers mate! haha spent enough on the build glad was able to do it with basic tools

[@TerritoryOffroad]

I might look at upper control arm mounts to go with my kit's. It will push the price up more. It's very very hard to sell full kit's as it is only due to the price. It's a good deal for what you get but $1800 in one go is a lot of money to most people. Hopefully if I can get a website set up I can offer the payment plan's. I had way more lift in mine and after undoing and re torquing all the suspension at new ride height I never had a issue with the front ball joints. I did have one pop way back and that's what made me realise everything needed re torquing at new ride height. Only reason I ended up flipping and re drilling my mounts was because I snapped my K-mac mounts. Was more just a why not then a had to. The factory ford territory bash plates really are the best in every way. Until they are no longer available I'll never look at making any. If you have a front bullbar set-up like mine then the extra little bash plate at the front is very practical.

[@reeceg6058]

Loving the chinese work boots.

[@specialized29er86]

Did it need a brake and sway test or is the overall lift height still within the allowable height.

[@alwaysAWD]

it's not excessive the lift so as far as I'm aware doesn't need that 🤙

[@Chandlers_builds]

What lift is under the Terri and what size steel rims and tyres are on it

[@alwaysAWD]

Running this - note I got the spacers and adjustable rear camber arms from @TerritoryOffroad 40mm rear spacer, with 10mm super pro spring pads, 35mm front spacer, kings raised springs front and kings raised springs rear. Dynamic 17x8" rims front P20 offset, rear P10 offset with 245/70/17 Falken Wildpeak A/T. With the raise, your stock rear camber arms won't be able to align properly so I also have adjustable rear camber arms.

[@alwaysAWD]

@@Chandlers_buildsraised king springs front and back - however if doing again id swap out the raised fronts with SZ front fork - gives same lift while keeping nice soft ride. i detail this on my earlier territory lift video 🤙
