IT'S hard to ignore the growing popularity of full-size I American pickup trucks on Australian roads and tracks. The numbers have grown over recent years and continue to I do so with several new players in the market.
There have always been companies importing American trucks to Australia and converting them to right-hand drive, but Ateco paved the way with Ram Trucks Australia and a semifactory operation to sell the RAM brand here. The success of RAM soon saw GMSV going down a similar route with Chevrolet trucks, Ford bringing in F-150s and we'll soon see the Tundra here via Toyota Australia.
The volume of trucks coming into the Australian ute market has created a big demand here for accessories that will fit them, and like most things in America, the USA aftermarket for pickup trucks is massive. Sorting through the junk from the quality equipment can be daunting, but thankfully one company has done all the hard work for Australian pickup truck buyers and builders.
Melbourne's Offroad Industries (ORI) saw the need for quality components for trucks in Australia and has focused its attention on the best brands to deliver high-quality products for your USA truck build.
As the importer of brands such as Addictive Desert Designs, Baja Kits, BDS Suspension, Factor 55, Fox Suspension, Titan Fuel Tanks, Bushwacker and Stealth Lighting among the products it keeps in stock, Offroad Industries has the best gear for your pickup, ready to go.
When we say that Offroad Industries has the products in stock, we mean it. The company's 1000m² warehouse in Melbourne is loaded to the rafters with stock and James and his team at ORI pride themselves on having the products here rather than having to search for them overseas and worry about shipping them to Australia.
