Hi all,
Well, after the demise of Shrek (posted earlier here), it was time to either repair or replace. Initially it was decided that I should repair it by using the good bit from it and another red SJ I had that had been canabalised for spare parts. As it happens, my wife was browsing good ol' fleabay and found me a new truck. :D Cool... at least it's not my fault now.
And so it was that I became the new owner of a soft top white Samurai - well almost white, it's previous owner had done a sort of camouflage paint job using silver paint! It was in pretty good condition except for the outer sills and was unmoddified except for an internal roll cage. A perfect canvas to perform surgery on.
Here's a picture of mine (lemon Fanta) and my wifes (orange Fanta).
I'll post a list of the modifications and how I did them if anybody is interested including DIY SPOA, DIY Hi steer, DIY rock sliders and a 410n T case swap? There's still a lot more to be performed on mine which will be added to over the next three weeks.
